Letter of Intent to Purchase a Business - A
letter of intent to purchase a business is used by the buyer and
seller to decide whether there is a sufficient agreement between them to
continue with the sale of the business.
When a letter of intent to purchase a business is drafted, it describes the basic terms of the proposed transaction and is
usually
nonbinding. The letter of intent precedes a formal business purchase and sale
agreement.
The goal for a letter of intent is to make sure the buyer and seller
agree on the major points of the purchase and sale of the business.
If there is a disagreement about the transaction, then the buyer
will not have wasted time and money preparing a detailed purchase
agreement.
The letter of intent should be drafted by an experienced business
attorney to ensure that the language is nonbinding, since the letter typically does not contain
enough information to complete the transaction in a manner
satisfactory to both parties.
