NewOwner

Sobre

NewOwner is a UK business acquisition platform that connects sellers with private investors and qualified buyers — directly, with no brokers and no commission fees. Founded by Andrew Zhaglov, a UK-based private investor with 12+ years in the market, NewOwner offers three paths. Sellers can either sell directly to Andrew (confidential, broker-free, typical close 2–4 months) or list on the platform and reach pre-qualified buyers nationwide. Buyers browse verified listings with real financial data — turnover, profit margins, employee count, retention — and contact owners directly. Investors get curated opportunities in commercial property, hotel rooms, healthcare assets, and alternative investments, each reviewed for viability and return. Andrew's acquisition criteria: established UK companies with £1M+ annual turnover, £200K+ net profit, 5+ years of operating history, in sectors with recurring revenue — SaaS, accounting, HVAC, professional services, manufacturing. The focus is clean owner-to-owner transitions that preserve the business legacy and grow it under new ownership. Why direct: brokers typically take 5–10% of the sale price (£100K–£200K on a £2M deal). NewOwner removes that layer entirely. Sellers keep the full sale price, run their own timeline, and talk to the buyer directly without a middleman filtering or slowing things down. Every listing on the platform goes through a review process, so buyers make decisions on real numbers — not teaser-only deals. Track record: 6 businesses acquired, 190+ businesses listed for sale, 18+ active investment opportunities, 12+ years in the market.
