Sell-Side Advisory Services for Illinois Dealerships

Selling a dealership is a complex and high-stakes endeavor. Pointe Automotive serves as a trusted Sell-Side Advisor, helping Illinois dealers prepare their business for sale, maintain confidentiality, and negotiate favorable outcomes. Our process begins with a comprehensive dealership valuation that considers your store’s operational performance, brand reputation, real estate, and competitive position in the market.

From there, we create a confidential marketing strategy and present your opportunity to a network of vetted buyers, including regional operators, national groups, and private investors looking for strong assets across Illinois. We manage every aspect of the transaction, from buyer screening and negotiations to OEM communication and closing coordination.

Whether you're selling a domestic-brand dealership in Joliet, a high-performing import store in Elgin, or a luxury franchise in the Chicago suburbs, Pointe Automotive provides the professional execution and support to maximize value and achieve a smooth transition.
