Who you will talk to

Zach Hoereth

Founder and buyer, 1EXIT

I am an Indiana-based investor and a licensed real estate broker. Over the years I have bought self-storage facilities, apartment buildings and light industrial properties, most of them directly from the owners who built them.

1EXIT is how I buy operating businesses. I buy to own and keep running them, not to flip them. When you call, you talk to me.

Questions

Straight answers

Is this confidential?

Yes. We do not list your business or contact your employees or customers.

Does it cost me anything?

No. There is no fee to talk and no commission charged to you.

Do I need to get anything ready?

No. A rough idea of yearly revenue and what you take home is enough for the first call.

What happens to my team?

We buy businesses to keep running them, so keeping a good team in place is usually part of the plan. We will talk it through with you.

Can I stay involved after the sale?

If you want to. Some owners stay on for a handoff. Others step away. You choose.

I already talked to a broker. Can I still reach out?

Yes. Tell us on the call. We will not interfere with an existing agreement.

Ready to talk?

2 minutes to fill out. No obligation.
