We are here to help. Our team is skilled at working remotely and we are available via phone, video conference and email to support our clients and engage with businesses interested in exploring employee ownership.

Why consider transitioning to employee ownership

• Provides market value – Also, Project Equity can help find the capital, with our established lenders, to finance the sale.
• Accommodates flexible financing – Employees do not finance the transaction; a leveraged buyout offers maximum flexibility.
• Delivers unique tax advantages – The owner and business can benefit from significant tax advantages. 
• Yields transition control to owner – The business owner drives the sale, timing and process.
• Strengthens local economy – New employee-owners build equity, preserve business legacy and keep money circulating in the local economy.
