Welcome to Water Street Advisors!
It is with great sadness that our colleague John Weber, who created Sage Intermediaries LLC with a great following in both Illinois and Indiana, has passed. I will miss him both as a person and as a professional.
The band is still together, albeit now a duo rather than a trio, and I continue to collaborate with LeAnne Foster at LF Advising. We know John Weber will always be with us, his insight and wisdom a constant part of our company.

Water Street Advisors successfully assists business owners in the sale of their companies. We are their partners until the closing. We understand that the decision to sell a family business is not to be taken lightly.
It is a big decision and having a partner who has successfully bought and sold companies before is important throughout the many phases of the process. We help owners navigate these, and through persistence and responsiveness keep the process moving forward letting owners concentrate on your business. We also understand that this is a very personal and emotional decision and act as a sounding board as we negotiate not only the business aspects of the deal, but the personal ones as well.
The team members of Water Street Advisors, have all had senior roles in large corporations and have chosen to apply that experience in successfully assisting privately held companies in the Lower Middle Market.
