Buying & selling routes & equipment

Not Skimmer related, but I am curious what you do for service trucks.  Company or employee owned?Purchased or leased?New or used? Thanks 

This is for anyone that has financed (not owner financed) a pool route. I’m curious as to how the experience was? What were the terms like? Were you still profitable while paying back the loan? Would you do it again if given the opportunity? 

Does anyone have any routes for sale in the Mesquite, Nevada area?

There seems to be some varied opinions on buying and selling routes through a broker. On one hand, brokers seem to offer things like guarantees and handoff processes that are useful in a business transaction of this nature. Some offer escrow services that complete payouts after time to ensure the routes purchased aren’t going to churn. On the other hand, some find the broker fees to be excessive and/or unnecessary. Have you used a broker to buy or sell routes? What are the pros and cons?
