We check the business
you want to buy.

Wherever the business is, we look first, free of charge. Are there records on it that we know how to read? Will a payment from your country go through? We answer by email within 24 hours on working days: whether we take it or not.

First we look at your business for free and answer within 24 hours. You pay only once we have said yes. If we do not take it, you pay nothing.

An answer within 24 hours: time enough to check before any deposit. €550: from the public records, within a day. €950: the same plus the seller's words checked against his documents, within two days.

What you get

A report: what passes to you with the business and what the state says about it. The price is final, no tax is added on top, and it does not depend on the price of the business.

Three plans. The difference is what stage you are at.

The two priced ones both start with a full check of the public records, and the only question is whether you also need the truth about the seller's numbers. The third is for a task that fits neither.

€550 · within a day

Before you talk to the seller. We do not contact the seller and we do not mention the order.

What you learn:

What exactly you are buying: the company itself, or only the assets (equipment, stock, the lease). That decides which old debts can come with the purchase.
Whether the permit to run the business must be applied for again. Sometimes it is issued to one person and does not pass to a new owner.
Which old debts can come to you with the business: taxes, employee contributions owed to the state, unpaid wages.
What the public records hold on the lease: term, whether it can be transferred, what is recorded about the rent when the owner changes. If there is no record, we say so.
Which papers will have to be re-registered after the deal, and how long that usually takes in this country, from open sources.
Debts and court cases; who is recorded as the owner; what is recorded about the equipment.
The list of papers worth asking the seller for, and the questions to ask, word for word, in the language of the country of the business.
A separate list: what to check on site and what to show a local lawyer. Included in the price.

What you do not learn: the truth about the takings comes with the €950 plan, where the seller's words are checked against his filed accounts.

What we need from you: the name or the sign, the town and country of the business, what it does, your email. No papers.

The report comes in one of six languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian. We confirm the language before payment.

€950 · within two days

When you negotiate. Everything in the €550 report, plus the document check: what the seller said, against what his own papers say.

From the sample: declared €240,000 a year · in the accounts the company filed with the state for 2025, €187,400 · 22% less. The check cost €950.

What you learn on top of €550:

Every claim about money the seller made and you passed to us, next to the document and the gap.
How much, by the documents, was left to the owner after costs.
We read the whole lease. What is recorded about the staff: how many, how long they have worked, what that means when the owner changes.
What to say to the seller about each gap. You do the bargaining; we give you the ready phrases, in the language of the country of the business.

What we need from you: the seller's papers. We send a list tailored to your deal, usually up to 12 papers: what to ask for, from whom, and why. You ask, as any buyer does before a deal. If you already have something, send it; it counts. The two days run from payment and receipt of the papers.

If the seller does not hand over the papers, we refund €400 ourselves, no need to ask, and deliver the €550 report.

Started with €550 and the papers turned up later? You pay the €400 difference, and we do the document check within two days.

Price after we read it · the term named before you pay

When the task fits no tier. We read it for free and answer whether we take it.

What people come with:

A certified document: an official extract with an electronic signature.
A visit on the ground and photographs of the place on a given date.
Watching over time: how the price, the listing and the hours change.
A country we do not cover yet, or a trade with a hard licence.

What we need from you: a letter: the country and the town, which business it is about, what you need to learn or to obtain.

How it goes, step by step

You enter the name, town and country of the business, and your email. We ask for no money.
Within 24 hours on working days we look ourselves. Are there records on this business that we know how to read? What is special there: can someone from your country own such a business, how does the lease pass on? Will a payment from your country go through? We answer by email: whether we take it, and exactly what we can check.
If we take it, the email holds a link to pay by card, as in any online shop. The charge is in euros; your bank converts it into your currency, and you see the exact amount before you confirm. You pay once.
The report comes by email: within a day for €550, within two days for €950.

Who we are and where the money goes

You pay by card through a payment provider; we never see your card number. The report is signed by the person who did the work. The papers you send are stored in Europe and erased within 90 days; the report stays with you. The name of the business you enter is seen by us alone.

Three questions people ask before paying

If you find nothing bad, do you refund?

No. You get the same report: where we looked, what we found and what we did not, item by item. That is the result you paid for.

Will the seller know?

We do not contact the seller and we do not mention the order. On the €950 plan you ask the seller for the papers, as any buyer does before a deal.

The sample is about a café; mine is a car wash, a salon or a clinic.

The sample shows how the report is built. Yours will be about your business.

No tax is added on top. The price is final.

A request that fits no tier

This route has no price — and cannot have one. Until we have read your task, nobody knows what exactly has to be done or whether it is possible in your country. Any figure named before that would be invented. You describe the task, we answer whether we take it. If we do, we name the price and the term before you pay.

What people come with

A certified document instead of a note: an official extract with an electronic signature. Such a paper stands before third parties.
Photographs of the place and its surroundings on a given date.
A visit on the ground: the state of the premises and the equipment, the flow of people, the hours actually kept.
A check on specific equipment by serial numbers and vehicle numbers.
Watching over time: how the price, the listing, the reviews and the hours change.
A country we do not cover yet. The first order in a new country takes longer; we name the term before you pay.
A trade with unusual permits — where the licence is harder than the ordinary one.
Several objects from the same seller at once, if you suspect he is not selling his own business.

What we will not do for any money

We will not contact the seller — on no pretext and in nobody's name.
We will not represent you in the deal and will sign nothing for you.
We will not give a legal or tax opinion and will not name a fair price.
We will not take on what requires powers we do not have.
We will not take on what is closed to everyone in that country. If the answer exists for nobody, we say so at once, not after payment.

How the price is worked out. From two parts, and both are visible: our work and the direct costs — register fees, payment to a local contractor, paid extracts. Direct costs go at the supplier's invoice, and the invoice is attached. Nothing is hidden inside one sum.

Describe the task Reading your task is free. A refusal is free and fast.

Write three things: the country and the town; which business it is about; what you need to learn or to obtain. If there is a link to the listing, attach it.

We check the business you want to buy.
