Wanted - 'Frustrated Buyers'

Several times each day prospective buyers share with us the frustrations of trying to find, negotiate and close on a business. It is not uncommon for us to hear the following from buyers;

> I have been looking for a business forever and just can not seem to find the right business.
> I have lost several businesses because the seller changed his mind, a higher offer came in after mine, I could not verify the documents,...
> I cannot seem to secure financing
> The seller is unrealistic about their price
> My advisors have not been comfortable with any of the deals I have uncovered
