Business Broker Guide

The Professional asked:


For the past few months I have been working as an intern at a commercial real estate firm. I enjoy the time I spend there, the people I work with, and I learn a lot. For the most part, I have been working with this one business broker and I think he is as smart as they come.
Lately, I have been hearing rumors from an extremely reliable source that he wants to hire a few assistants in the near future. The business broker even mentioned it today and even hinted he might be interested in hiring me.

Does anyone have any experience with this type of situation? What do you guys think I should do?

- I am graduating college in sping 09
- Other Options:
- Go to graduate school
- Get a job with a corporation

I’ve done a lot of research and found out that a conventional banks will not give me a business loan unless I have a existing business and personal loans are usually maxed out around 25k which is a lot less than what I need(100k), I’m a homeowner and have a excellent credit history but still didn’t qualify for a home equity line of credit I guess they are just a thing of the past so I started to contact business loan broker that are willing to approve me for the amount that I need 100% unsecured but the have a large fee, Around 10% to 15% of the amount you are borrowing …so the question is are these brokers legit companies and is there any other option out there where it will not cost me 10k just to get a business loan???

I am considering a career path to follow and I was just wondering. By business field I mean accountant, economist, stock broker and the like. I am decent in math, I got a B in both Algebra and Geometry, but I still get mildly confused. What math skills are needed for these jobs? Do I just need to know business math like basic addition, subtraction and those with knowing interest as well? or do I need to know a lot more. All help is appreciated.

I would like to start a loan broking business in the UK. I have not done this sort of work before but I have a lot of experience in financial services so I hope to be able to learn quickly.

Can anyone please give me some advice on how to go about starting such a business - how to find lenders etc

Thanks
