Frequent asked questions:

What is Searchfunder.com?

Searchfunder.com is an online community of searchers, investors, lenders, brokers and other professionals. Over 80% of those involved in searchfunds maintain a Searchfunder account to help them network, hire, and mentor others.

What are the benefits of membership?

In addition to accessing the most active online network of business buyers, Searchfunder licenses research that is simply not cost effective for individuals. Access over 15,000 industry reports and 50,000 transaction financials. You also get monthly credits for contact information for your company sourcing campaign with the option to purchase more at drastically discounted rates. Searchfunder has pre-purchased access from these data providers in order to empower individual buyers and to help searchers level the playing field versus private equity.

Do you have deals?

While we are primarily a buy-side network, we do have hundreds of brokers that regularly post deals to the community.

Can I find an internship on Searchfunder?

Absolutely! We have the industry's largest intern job board. If you are considering a search, the first step is to help another business buyer so you can hit the ground running.

What does it cost?

Searchfunder is a subscription service. We offer flexible monthly, annual and lifetime memberships.

Monthly

$79 / month

Annual

$19 / month

Lifetime

$432 / once

Those who maintain an account with us for over 4 continuous years are permanently added to the community without the need for a membership.

Do I need an MBA to join?

While a large number of our members come from dedicated programs at Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, Chicago Booth, and other top programs, searching is no longer reserved for the elite. With the current abundance of dry powder in private equity, and an increasing number of business owners reaching retirement age, good deals rarely go unfunded.

Veteran Search Intern- Seattle/Tacoma

I am an Army Vet, West Point grad, and helicopter pilot aspiring to search in Montana after I complete my 13+ years of service in March 2027. I have an opportunity to complete a 3 month internship starting in September, and I am looking for either a search acquired business or a searcher looking for assistance from an intern to host me. I am new, and am actively drinking from the fire hose of search knowledge. I am a hard worker and eager to learn. Reach out if interested!

Hi ^redacted‌ - nice to meet you. We have worked with many veterans and we specialize in the SBA. This is a great program to get a deal done for as little as 10% down or even 5% down. I am always happy to share my knowledge, and give you more insight into what lenders look for, which should be helpful for your internship or your own acquisition. We have a lot experience financing various companies via the SBA. If you ever need help reviewing a deal, I am happy to help. We work with all the major SBA lenders. The bank pay us after your loan closes, so this is a 100% free service for you. You can email me directly at redacted or schedule a meeting with me: redacted. Look forward to chatting!

Hey Stephen, we just had a skillbrige/CSP intern roll through in a search acquired business via Mayrion Capital in Austin, TX. Not in the Tacoma area, but happy to connect you with him or host you here if you had planned on relocating
