About the Company
Vaughn & Associates is a Texas-based business brokerage specializing in the sale of privately held businesses, with a strong focus on franchise resales, service-based companies, and owner-operated enterprises. We work with business owners who are ready to sell, buyers looking for the right opportunity, and investors seeking clear, well-presented deals.
Our brokerage was built on the belief that selling a business deserves the same level of strategy, transparency, and care as any major financial decision. We take a hands-on approach to every listing, combining detailed financial analysis, thoughtful positioning, and targeted marketing to reach qualified buyers—not just browsers.
With experience across restaurants, franchises, salons, and service businesses, we understand the nuances that affect valuation, deal structure, and buyer confidence. We guide clients through every stage of the transaction, from initial valuation and preparation to negotiations and closing, ensuring the process is efficient, professional, and aligned with our clients’ goals.
Vaughn & Associates is committed to clear communication, discretion, and results. Whether you are selling a single location or evaluating your first acquisition, our role is to simplify the process and protect your interests at every step.
