    Business Broker Directory

    The only SMB broker directory ranked by actual deal activity.

    Hundreds of US small-business brokers, ranked by listings posted in the last 90 days — not by marketing spend or membership tier. Filter by state and industry. Data refreshed daily from each broker’s own website and the major marketplaces.

    SBA Lender Directory

    Find the right SBA 7(a) lender for your acquisition.

    ~450 active SBA 7(a) lenders from the public FOIA dataset. Every metric a searcher cares about is its own sortable column — speed to fund, secondary-market resale share, M&A focus, industry/geo concentration, charge-off rate. Filter by state, industry, loan size.

    Calculators

    Run the deal math before you make an offer. Every input is overridable, and nothing is saved unless you create an account.

    SBA Loan Calculator

    Model an SBA 7(a) deal in under a minute.

    Enter purchase price, down payment, interest rate, and term. Get monthly payment, total interest, debt service coverage, and a full amortization schedule. Defaults to typical SBA structures (10-year term, ~9.75% as of June 2026) but every input is overridable.

    Open calculator

    DSCR Calculator

    See if a deal's cash flow covers its debt against the 1.25x SBA floor.

    Enter SDE, your SBA loan, and an optional seller note to get the debt service coverage ratio, total annual debt service, and a pass/fail status badge. Seller notes on standby are counted, just like a lender does.

    Check your DSCR

    SDE Calculator

    Find a small business's true owner earnings before you make an offer.

    Sum net income plus owner comp, interest, depreciation, amortization, taxes, and one-time addbacks to normalize SDE, then sanity-check it against an SBA loan’s DSCR.

    Calculate SDE

    Business Valuation Calculator

    Estimate what an SMB is worth from its SDE or EBITDA and industry multiple.

    Enter earnings, pick an industry, and get a low/mid/high valuation range from typical SMB market multiples. Directional, not an appraisal.

    Value a business

    Max Purchase Price Calculator

    Solve for the highest price you can pay and still clear your DSCR gate.

    Enter SDE, a target DSCR, and your financing structure to get your price ceiling, implied multiple, and the SBA/seller-note/down-payment breakdown. Closed-form, no guessing.

    Find your ceiling
