Dr. Robert A. Uhland
Dr. Robert Uhland grew up in Kansas, received his Bachelor of Science at Kansas University, and remains a loyal Jayhawk. He knew early on that he wanted to be a dentist, but he was also entrepreneurial by nature — a combination that has defined his career ever since.
With a flair for excitement, Dr. Uhland attended the University of Texas at San Antonio School of Dentistry while completing an internship in Orthodontics at the Mayo Clinic. His orthodontic training was finished at Loyola University School of Dentistry, and he went on to purchase the dental practice at Rush Hospital, later relocating it to Michigan Avenue when the practice was forced to move.
For 25 years, Dr. Uhland served the people of Northbrook with his orthodontic practice. For the past 15 years, he has put that same expertise, ethics, and client trust to work as the founder of Chicagoland Business Broker — giving every client the pleasant process and successful outcome that comes from working with someone who has truly been in their shoes.

Representation For Every Side Of The Table
Buyer Representation
Chicagoland Business Broker may represent either the buyer or seller in a transaction. Either way, it’s in everyone’s interest to have a lender with fair rates, good terms, excellent customer service, and timely funding for the closing — carrying the transition through from buyer to owner.
Business loans have proven to be a low-risk investment for lenders, making loan acquisition possible for most potential buyers; credit ratings do not have to be perfect to be considered.
- Price determination and negotiation support
- Guidance on structuring the purchase
- Assistance through to closing
Seller Representation
Finding the buyer is only the beginning of a successful transition. Chicagoland Business Broker provides you with an experienced team of accountants and lawyers to help guarantee a smooth outcome, going from Selling to Sold with far less friction.
Once a buyer is found, Chicagoland Business Broker assists in negotiating the terms of the loan and assembles the paperwork needed to carry the transition through to closing.
- Loan negotiation on the buyer’s behalf
- Careful analysis for a fair selling price
- An in-depth, on-site business appraisal
Don’t Sell Yourself Short
An appraisal should be performed at regular intervals to help monitor your business. A qualified appraiser determines the fair market value of your business — critical to marketing it well, educating potential buyers, and giving the lending institution what it needs to fund the closing.
Financing
A proper appraisal arrives at a value that lets the buyer pay expenses, earn a reasonable living, and pay off the business in a reasonable period of time.
Estate Planning
An appraisal helps you plan your estate with your advisors. Without it, no buy/sell agreement can be in place, and marketing the business is hindered.
Combining Practices
An appraisal is critical if businesses are to be merged — you can’t establish ownership in the new business without knowing what each was worth individually.
Buy/Sell Agreements
Chicagoland Business Broker will have a broker personally visit every business that signs a listing agreement to arrive at a fair market value.
