Terms of use

Last updated: July 21, 2026

These terms govern your use of https://buyabusinessnewyork.com (the "Site"), operated by Jason Taken of Hedgestone Business Advisors ("we", "us"). By using the Site, you agree to these terms.

Educational content; not professional advice

All content on this Site is general and educational. Nothing on the Site is legal, tax, accounting, lending, or investment advice, and no advisor-client relationship is created by your use of the Site. You should confirm specific rules, rates, and forms with the relevant New York State agency, attorney, CPA, lender, insurer, or licensing office before acting on anything you read here.

Calculators and tools

The calculators on this Site produce illustrative estimates based on the assumptions documented on the methodology page and the inputs you provide. They are not valuations, loan pre-approvals, or guarantees of any outcome. A SBA lender, CPA, or business appraiser will reach their own conclusions based on their own underwriting or analysis.

Listings and NDAs

Hedgestone Business Advisors maintains an active inventory of 500+ New York business-for-sale opportunities. Most are confidential and off-market, released to vetted buyers under NDA only. References to specific industries, geographies, or deal profiles on this Site are educational; access to actual listings requires a vetted buyer profile and a signed NDA. No reference on this Site is an offer to sell or a representation that any specific business is available to any specific buyer without the qualification process.

External links

The Site links to third-party government and industry sources for verification. We are not responsible for the content or accuracy of third-party sites.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Site and its content are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, and neither Jason Taken nor Hedgestone Business Advisors will be liable for any damages arising from your use of the Site or reliance on its content.

Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the date above.
