re: Buying into a company (Long)

A bank will not touch this and won't lend you money for your current business strategy.

Sounds like your aunts and uncles are getting a free ride. If the company is profitable, seems that you would have to pay them a higher premium than what their shares are worth currently.

If you can't afford to buy one out, you have a long road ahead unless your dad has the means to step in on your behalf and "buy them out".
