It\u2019s called the \u2018Silver Tsunami,\u2019 and with it, a growing number are looking to exit their companies and pass them on. For aspiring entrepreneurs or businesses looking to expand, this presents a unique opportunity: acquiring an existing business with a proven track record, a loyal customer base, and an operational infrastructure already in place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But while the opportunity is clear, the cost of acquisition often isn\u2019t small. That\u2019s where loans to buy a retiring business come into play.
