50 \\ What to Know Before Buying a Business: Key Tips and Red Flags

Thinking about buying or investing in a business? In this episode, Tiffany walks through what most people overlook when evaluating a business purchase. Learn how to assess whether a business is a smart investment, why “cash to seller” matters, how employee count affects whether it’s hands-off or hands-on, and why aligning the business with your skills or existing operations is crucial. Tiffany explains due diligence, financing considerations, and common traps that first-time buyers fall into—so you can avoid buying yourself a job instead of an asset. If you want to grow through acquisition or build passive income, this episode gives you the finance advice and tax planning mindset you need before you sign the deal.
