CreateKAE is a consulting practice. It is not a business broker, a lender, a law firm, or an accounting firm. It does not list businesses for sale, solicit buyers, or negotiate price. Work sits alongside your broker, CPA, attorney, and lender.

Deal Check output is an illustration from assumption set 2026-10-14.1. It is not financial, tax, legal, lending, or investment advice, and it is not an appraisal or a loan decision. The interest-rate default is an SBA-style placeholder, not a quoted rate. Examples on the site are hypothetical.

Success fees, where an engagement includes them, are 10 percent of the sale price above a documented baseline, never a share of the asking price. Fees tied to a sale can fall under state business-broker or securities rules. Counsel reviews every success-fee arrangement before it is offered, and the structure may differ by state.
