Legacy One Business Brokers

Des Moines, Iowa

At the heart of our work is a simple mission: Protecting Legacies. Creating Opportunities.

We specialize in guiding business owners, investors, and entrepreneurs through some of the most important financial decisions of their lives. Whether transitioning ownership, acquiring a company, raising capital, or investing in commercial real estate, we provide the expertise and strategic guidance needed to move forward with confidence.

Our business brokerage services help owners successfully prepare, value, and sell their businesses, ensuring the legacy they’ve built is preserved while maximizing the value of their life’s work. For buyers and investors, we identify and structure high-quality acquisition opportunities designed for long-term growth and profitability.

Beyond transactions, we act as trusted advisors—consulting with businesses on growth strategies, capital positioning, and exit planning to help owners strengthen their companies and prepare for the future. When capital is needed to scale or acquire, we assist in raising investment capital and connecting businesses with strategic funding sources.

Our expertise also extends into commercial real estate, where we help clients buy, sell, and position properties that support business expansion, investment portfolios, and long-term wealth creation.

Every engagement is built on discretion, strategic insight, and a commitment to protecting what our clients have built while opening doors to new possibilities.

We work with entrepreneurs at pivotal moments in their journey—when they are ready to grow, transition, invest, or realize the value of what they have built. Our firm provides strategic guidance across business brokerage, consulting, capital formation, and commercial real estate to help owners and investors make confident, well-informed decisions.

For business owners preparing to sell, we focus on protecting the legacy they have built by positioning their companies for a successful transition while maximizing value. For buyers and investors, we identify and structure opportunities to acquire strong businesses and strategic assets that support long-term growth.

Beyond transactions, we advise entrepreneurs on business strategy, capital access, and expansion opportunities. Whether raising capital, acquiring a company, or investing in commercial real estate, our role is to help clients navigate complex decisions and unlock the next stage of opportunity.

Every engagement is grounded in discretion, strategy, and a deep respect for the work entrepreneurs put into building their businesses.
