What this stake conveys

You acquire the entire cap table. No retained founder stake, no minority consent rights, no ongoing dilution risk from existing holders.

Verified before listing

The founder attested to owning at least 100% and uploaded ownership evidence (cap table, operating agreement, or equivalent). Timber reviews entity standing and authority to sell before a listing goes live.
