Evaluating and appraising a business requires specialist knowledge. Every business is different, and all prospective business owners have different expectations. That’s why, before you buy a business, you must get it thoroughly assessed to ensure it suits your needs. We know how to evaluate companies and have worked with many prospective business owners.

If you are new to business, or simply thinking about what may be involved we can help you with this, including:

• Structure, should you be a sole trader or a limited company, or use some other structure
• Is the business in good shape, and what should you think about and be aware of
• What finance will you need for the startup and ongoing working capital. We can assist with applications to banks and finance companies
• What could you potentially earn
• What risks should I think about
• Provide introductions to bankers. Using the right person is critical in today’s environment.
• What records do you need to keep, and what do you need to comply with your statutory obligations.
