What Sells in Pueblo
Pueblo has a long industrial history and a steady base of health care, education, government and service employers.
Manufacturing shops, trades contractors, medical practices, restaurants near the riverwalk and auto service companies are the kinds of businesses that trade here.
Prices in Pueblo can run lower than in Colorado Springs for similar companies, partly because the buyer pool is smaller. Reaching buyers in Colorado Springs and Denver helps close that gap.
Paperwork Is Different Here
Pueblo County has its own assessor, so the business personal property declaration goes there rather than to El Paso County. The process is similar to the one described on our El Paso County personal property page, but check Pueblo County's forms and dates.
State filings are the same anywhere in Colorado, including the Colorado tax status letter buyers ask for.
Who Buys in Pueblo
Local owners buying a second company, managers buying out their employer and first time buyers using SBA loans make up much of the buyer pool.
Larger companies from Colorado Springs and Denver also look south for trades and health care practices that add to their coverage.
Real estate is often part of the conversation, since many Pueblo owners own their buildings. Selling the building separately or leasing it to the buyer can change the result.
Getting a Number
