Engagement is a pre-contract due diligence period, allowing buyer, broker, and seller to efficiently determine if there is enough common ground to move forward to contract. The Engagement phase significantly accelerates decision making by providing immediate access to key information and services. When engaged, buyer, brokers, and seller interact in a pro-business environment, safe from uninvited outside interference, and with ample time to perform due diligence and to construct contracts. Prior to getting engaged, all participants exchange confidentiality and non-circumvent agreements.
