Haroon Bhatti

Michigan Business Broker & M&A Advisor

Haroon Bhatti is a Michigan business broker and M&A advisor who helps business owners prepare, value, market, negotiate, and successfully sell their companies. As Managing Director of Capital Business Brokerage, Haroon works with Main Street and lower middle-market businesses throughout Michigan, providing hands-on guidance through confidential business sales, buyer qualification, deal structuring, financing, due diligence, and closing.

Haroon leads Capital Business Brokerage with graduate-level finance training and hands-on transaction experience across a wide range of industries. He holds an MBA and a Master of Science in Finance, giving him the ability to combine practical business brokerage experience with deeper financial analysis, valuation strategy, and transaction advisory support.

Haroon’s work goes beyond simply listing a business for sale. He advises clients on business valuation, confidential marketing, buyer screening, seller financing, SBA financing coordination, deal structuring, due diligence preparation, purchase agreement negotiations, lender communication, and closing execution.

Selling a business is one of the most important financial and personal decisions an owner will ever make. For many business owners, a sale involves far more than purchase price. It may involve family, employees, customers, community reputation, legacy, retirement planning, partner dynamics, and years of personal sacrifice. Haroon helps clients think through both the financial and emotional sides of the transaction so they can make informed decisions with clarity and confidence.

As a Michigan business broker, Haroon focuses on protecting value, maintaining confidentiality, qualifying serious buyers, and helping each transaction move through a structured process. His approach is direct, practical, and relationship-driven. Business owners rely on him not only to market their companies, but also to help them understand valuation, negotiate deal terms, manage buyer expectations, and avoid common issues that can delay or derail a closing.

Business Brokerage Experience

Haroon has advised on and closed transactions ranging from Main Street businesses to larger lower middle-market deals, including transactions up to approximately $61 million. His experience allows him to understand the practical realities of owner-operated businesses while also handling more sophisticated transaction issues involving financing, due diligence, working capital, real estate, equity rollover, earn-outs, seller financing, and strategic buyer negotiations.

At Capital Business Brokerage, Haroon works with clients across many industries, including service businesses, restaurants, franchises, automotive companies, manufacturing businesses, distribution companies, retail operations, professional services, contractors, and other privately held companies.

How Haroon Helps Business Owners

Business owners often contact Haroon when they are asking important questions: What is my business worth? Is now the right time to sell? How do I prepare my business for a buyer? How do I keep the sale confidential? Should I offer seller financing? Can the buyer obtain SBA financing? What deal structure gives me the best chance of actually closing?

Haroon helps owners answer these questions with financial analysis, market knowledge, transaction experience, and practical deal judgment. The objective is not just to generate interest in a business. The objective is to generate qualified buyer interest, structure the transaction properly, manage expectations, and guide the deal to a successful closing.

Haroon is actively involved in the business brokerage and M&A advisory profession. He serves on the Walsh College Board of Trustees and is involved with the Michigan Business Brokers Association as a State Board Director and Metro Chapter Secretary.
