“Couldn't Have Made the Sale Without Them”

Seth M.
4/21/16

Highly recommend Latona's. Ryan Lane helped guide me through each step and got me far more for the site than I ever could have on my own. If you have a high-end site that you're looking to sell, I'd definitely check them out.

Top Critical Review

“Misleading sales practices; waste of time”

max h.
7/3/17

I got an email with the subject: "Buyers Interested in Your White Rabbit Press Business". After setting up a phone call the Latona rep admitted that they weren't aware of any buyers who were actually interested in our business. It was just a cold email aimed at getting me to list my site on their marketplace. Waste of my time.

I have purchased two web businesses so far through Latonas with excellent help from broker Adam Beebe. I look forward to doing more deals with Latonas in the future.

Adam Beebe went above and beyond from day 1 helping me sell my site. Once a bid went in he went on turbo mode and exceeded all of my expectations, from the sale to the escrow.

Great job Adam!

Terrible. Absolutely will not care for you as a seller or buyer. They take any garbage business and will in turn sell you garbage. No vetting on their end of the seller or the business at all. Listing prices are all over the place, and completely meaningless as the numbers are all fluff/made up from the sellers. As a seller I wouldn't give them my business, and as a buyer I have gotten completely screwed from their unethical business practices.

They knowingly had sold a business, that had a lien on the assets being sold, and did not disclose whatsoever. I have emails from Adam Beebe who was my broker to the seller stating this loan & lien, and still it was kept quiet and did not disclose at all. Of course this is on you as a buyer to perform proper due diligence, but for a broker to go as far to hide something like that just to get a business sold is unethical and terrible business practice.

They will also hound you to make a decision and put pressure even if you start to shy away from an offer.

Do NOT list your business with this company, and absolutely do not make the mistake I did in buying one of their sites.

Relentless email spammers, and no doubt their business practices are just as dodgy. Do yourself a favor and stay away.

I use this along with flippa to find websites to purchase. This one seems to have higher end sites.

From the business

Latona's is a full-service web business broker. We specialize in selling websites that are cash flow positive. We offer free website valuations to potential sellers. If they choose to list with us, we take them through our entire process from the initial prospectus to the final contract negotiation and closing using a 3rd party escrow service.

Business History

Latona's in one form or another, has been around since the early 2000s but it was in 2009 that we made the commitment to focus exclusively on cash flow positive websites and web based businesses.

Previous to that, our founder, Rick Latona had focused primarily on the domain industry. When the financial crash hit in 2008/9 Rick quickly realized that in a down economy, cash flow is king so he shifted our mission and we've been steady and growing ever since.

Today we have one of the largest, if not the largest, newsletter subscriber base in the industry. When we get a listing, nearly everyone knows about it. We have a tremendous reach which is next to greatest asset. Our greatest asset is our team of exclusive dedicated brokers who hand hold clients through the process of buying or selling a business.
