How to Buy a Placer County Liquor License

There are two ways to secure a liquor license in Placer County, CA. One option is to obtain an alcohol permit directly from the CA Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). The other way is to attain a Placer County alcohol license on the secondary market using a liquor license broker, like Liquor License Auctioneers.

 

Due to the limited number of alcohol permits in Placer County, you will often have to obtain an alcohol license from the open market. Sometimes, you have to wait until a seller is willing to sell a liquor license to you in Placer County, California.

Our team of experienced liquor license brokers can assist you in completing the following eight steps to purchase a liquor license in Placer County.

 

  1. Secure the location: Choose a location to sell or serve alcohol. This business establishment must be leased, rented, or purchased. 
  2. Select your liquor license: Determine which type of Placer County liquor license you need for your particular type of business. Then choose if you will attain it from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) or on the open market from a liquor license broker, such as Liquor License Auctioneers. 
  3. Open your escrow account: You will need to open an escrow account, preferably with a third-party company. All of the finances associated with the transfer and purchase of the Placer County liquor license will get placed in the escrow account. 
  4. Survey the location: Employ a surveyor to do an inspection of the business premises. You can ask Liquor License Auctioneers to complete this step for you. 
  5. Complete your ABC Application: After you have filled out the ABC Application, submit it to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) to be reviewed. Our liquor license brokers can complete the ABC Application on your behalf.
  6. Post a notice: When the ABC Application has been reviewed and approved by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), they will send a notice of intention to sell liquor. When you receive this notice, you are instructed to post it prominently for 30 days at your business location.
  7. Submit to investigation: After the 30 days have passed, the California Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) will conduct a final inspection of your business location. During this investigation, they will decide if they will approve you for a Placer County alcohol license. 
  8. Receive the liquor license: If you have properly completed the previous seven steps, the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) in California will send you the official Placer County liquor license. When you receive the alcohol license, you must feature it at your place of business.

 

Closely adhering to the prior eight steps will fulfill the requirements for obtaining a liquor license in Placer County set by the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). Be sure to see if your local municipality has other regulations to acquire an alcohol permit, such as zoning permits (CUP’s) or any other legal stipulation. To expedite the process of obtaining a liquor license in Auburn, California, it is recommended that you are aware of these additional requirements.
