A system for brokering the sale of a business includes a put option that guarantees the sale of the business if the business is not otherwise sold within the prescribed time limit. The system calculates an offer price from historical data about the business being sold and sets a guarantee price proportionate to the offer price. If the business does not sell, the broker purchases the business at the guaranteed price or finds another buyer to purchase the business at a later time.
