Every week a Jacksonville business quietly changes owners. A founder cashes out, a buyer takes the keys, a bank decides whether any of it happens at all. Almost none of that is ever said out loud.

Acquisitions in Jax puts the deal on the record. Brad Hettich has spent close to 30 years on the lending side of these transactions, reading roughly 700 deals a year, and he brings the buyers, sellers, bankers and advisors into the studio to walk through what actually occurred. Not the press release version. The version with the valuation gap, the diligence surprise, the seller note nobody wanted, the call that almost killed it. For sellers, it is what your buyer and your bank are really thinking. For buyers, it is how deals in this market get won and financed. For lenders and investors, it is the credit story behind the closing. For everyone, it is the part of the deal you never get to see.
