Can you all tell me some lending companies who will finance a P&C agency purchase.

That was great info, and i truly appreciate it.

When going over the books, what should be examined besides... loss ratios, retention, comm vs. pers, etc..

This is going to be a huge investment of money and time for my family and I don't want to miss anything. Thanks again guys.

I have been fortunate to come across an agent (ia) who is ready to retire and am curious as to what is an average or typical amount to offer or to pay for his business. Thanks in advance. Has both standard and non standard carriers.
