Interest Rates are Rising

Interest rates impact a buyer's ability and willingness to borrow for acquisitions.

Current Rates: Interest rates are near all time lows and funds available for acquisitions are near all time highs. This is very favorable for transactions where financing is used for purchase and growth capital.

Projected Rates: Interest rates have been rising. Most financial experts believe that rates will either remain at current rates or rise in the near term future, few believe that they will fall.
