I help business owners in Los Angeles confidentially buy and sell companies up to $50 million — with the expertise, discretion, and personal attention your deal deserves.
Selling or acquiring a business is one of the most significant financial decisions of your life. It requires an advisor who understands the stakes, knows the market, and will fight to protect your interests at every turn.
Based in Los Angeles, I specialize in the confidential sale and acquisition of small to mid-sized businesses across Southern California and beyond — up to $50 million.
I personally manage every aspect of your transaction — valuation, marketing, buyer qualification, negotiations, and closing — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Who you trust with the sale of your business matters. Here is the professional standing and experience behind every engagement.
Proud member of the industry's leading professional associations
Martin Navarro is a member of the California Association of Business Brokers (CABB) and the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA) — the largest professional business broker association in North America — and is held to their professional standards and codes of ethics.
I take on a limited number of clients at a time to ensure every transaction gets the focused attention it deserves.
You work directly with me — not a team of assistants or rotating agents. Every email, every call, every negotiation comes through me personally. Your deal gets my full focus.
A leaked sale can damage your business before the deal ever closes. I implement strict NDA protocols and vet every buyer before disclosing a single detail about your business.
I'm only paid when your deal closes successfully. That means my interests are completely aligned with yours — I'm motivated to get you the best possible outcome, not just any outcome.
A structured, proven process that protects you, maximizes your value, and moves your deal forward efficiently.
We analyze your financials, market position, and industry comps to establish a defensible, market-driven asking price.
We build a compelling Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM) and assemble your deal package to attract serious buyers.
Your business is confidentially marketed to a national buyer network, qualified investors, and strategic acquirers.
I manage due diligence, financing, negotiations, and coordinate with attorneys and escrow to get you to the closing table.
Whether you're ready to exit or looking to acquire, I provide end-to-end representation across Southern California.
Full-service representation for business owners ready to sell. I handle everything from valuation through closing, ensuring maximum value and complete confidentiality throughout the process.
Searching for the right business to buy? I help qualified buyers identify, evaluate, and acquire businesses that match their criteria — and negotiate terms in their favor.
Get a clear, accurate picture of what your business is worth in today's market. I use industry-standard methodologies and current comparable sales data to give you a realistic valuation.
The purchase price is just one piece of the puzzle. I negotiate deal terms, seller financing, earnouts, and transitions to protect your interests and optimize your net proceeds.
I track the Southern California M&A market closely and understand what buyers are paying — so you don't leave money on the table.
As a advisor, I have access to a national network of pre-qualified buyers actively searching for businesses like yours.
From LOIs and NDAs to due diligence and escrow, I navigate the legal and financial complexity of every deal so you don't have to.
My reputation depends on successful closings. I'm selective about the engagements I take on so I can deliver exceptional results for every client.

“I cannot say enough good things about working with Martin Navarro. When I started thinking about selling my business, I had no idea where to begin. Martin helped me understand all my options, gave me a clear picture of what my business was worth, and made the whole process easy to follow. He was always available when I needed him and responded fast every time. His customer service was top notch and he really knew his stuff. I have already recommended him to a few other business owners I know. If you need a business broker in Los Angeles, Martin is the one to call.”
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Martin and I highly recommend him. He is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely committed to helping his clients achieve their goals. I appreciate how organized and responsive he is throughout every transaction. Martin does an excellent job guiding his clients, maintaining clear communication, and ensuring deals progress smoothly and efficiently. I look forward to working with Martin on many more transactions in the future.”
“I reached out to Martin when I was thinking about selling my business and honestly had no idea where to start. From the first conversation, he broke everything down in a way that actually made sense. He walked me through how the valuation process works, what buyers look for, what documentation I would need, and what to expect at every stage of a sale. I ended up not being ready to sell yet, but that is exactly what Martin helped me figure out. He was patient, never pushy, and genuinely focused on making sure I made the right decision for myself rather than just trying to close a deal. That meant a lot. When the time comes, he is the first call I am making. If you are even just thinking about selling your business and want to understand what you are getting into, talking to Martin is the best place to start. Highly recommend.”
“I highly recommend Martin. Beginning with my first phone call and conversation with him, I felt both comfortable and ‘in good hands’. Very pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable.”
“Martin was very helpful in helping me understand the process.”
