Fees & Commissions

We believe our clients receive a substantially increased value in their transactions with the services of Amvest. This increased value added often exceeds the amount of our fees.

When representing sellers, we are compensated on a success basis with a modest initial retainer upon signing our engagement agreement.

When representing buyers in a proactive search, we are compensated on a success basis for each transaction with either a modest one-time retainer or monthly retainer depending on the scope of the engagement. The retainers are generally credited against our success fee paid by the buyer at closing. Buy-side agreements also contain provisions for reimbursement of out-of-pocket travel expenses.

Equity and debt financing assignments vary by the type and scope of the engagement.

For services such as valuations, pre-sale positioning, keep/sell decisions, and market research that do not lend themselves to a success fee, we perform our services on an hourly or per project basis plus out-of-pocket expenses.

In all cases, we tailor a fee structure or other compensation to fit the assignment. Our fee arrangements are detailed in every formal engagement agreement.

Amvest welcomes blanket fee agreements from buyers.
