How to Buy a Restaurant in Georgia
A step-by-step guide to restaurant and second-generation foodservice acquisitions.
- Define your acquisition goals. Choose upfront: day-one cash flow, a second-generation space to renovate, or discounted property and equipment. Decide whether you're buying a job or a passive investment.
- Find and evaluate the building. Work with commercial brokers in Georgia who know equipment, licensing, and leases. Check foot traffic, parking, competition, and zoning using local market insights.
- Understand building value. Value the real estate and the business separately. Price the business on Seller's Discretionary Earnings and a market multiple, prioritizing margins and equipment condition over revenue.
- Complete due diligence. Review three years of P&Ls, tax returns, and bank records. Verify add-backs, seasonality, lease assignment, and liquor and health license transfers.
- Make and negotiate the offer. Allocate the price across real estate, business, equipment, and goodwill, negotiate seller financing and a non-compete, and benchmark against recently sold Georgia commercial comps.
- Close and take ownership. Finalize financing, transfer the lease and licenses, confirm suppliers, POS, and inventory systems, and hold reserves for the post-transition sales dip.
