Hello laylagarcia--
I have researched your question and have spent the evening compiling a
list for you.
The most difficult part of this research was locating solid business
sale leads in non-metropolitan areas. But alas, I found a number of
them for you.
I first found the map of the HubZones to which you were referring. I'm
sure you probably have the link. But if you don't, you may view it at
http://map.sba.gov/hubzone/init.asp
Then I conducted a Google Search for the following terms:
"companies for sale" list
You may view the results of my search online. The link is
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=%22companies+for+sale%22+list
It looks to me like the best states for you to search in would include
Alaska, Hawaii, Oregon, Idaho, Arizona, Alabama, and Maine.
So I conducted the following searches which came up quite fruitful:
"businesses for sale" alaska
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=%22businesses+for+sale%22+alaska
"businesses for sale" hawaii
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=%22businesses+for+sale%22+hawaii
"businesses for sale" oregon

"businesses for sale" maine
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=%22businesses+for+sale%22+maine&btnG=Google+Search
I went through dozens of sites that list businesses for sale. Most
charge fees to peruse the listings. But I found a few that were free
that had some good ones for you. This lead me to a number of different
sites that post businesses for sale. Some of the below businesses have
only a few employees. Others are larger with 50-60 or more.
