Proper valuations

A successful transfer of your business begins with a proper and realistic value for your business - one that we honestly feel we will be able to meet, and on which you and a buyer can agree.
Sadly, less ethical agents make a habit of giving inflated valuations just to sign up clients, and collect big upfront fees. We don't operate that way.

Our commitment

Our appraisals are realistic, based on the facts and figures that any buyer will demand. Our sign-up fees are modest. There are no 'add-on' fees.
We make our profit when your sale goes through, so we share your motivation for a good and timely outcome.
Our contract with you is simple and clear - it fits on one page.

Marketing your business

Our promotion is done through our state of the art digital platform, matching thousands of buyers with sellers.

We promote your business extensively to our own database, through the regular 'Business for Sale' channels and websites, and with social media.

All brochures, colour photography and advertising included in our initial fee.

Good communication

Once we've started marketing your business, you'll want to know how it's going.We provide regular updates on our actions, and on the level of interest and response we get. You'll also be made to feel welcome if you want to call us and check.

Getting to completion

Just like a house sale, the final details can become frustratingly slow.We'll do everything we can to predict what questions might come up from the solicitors or lenders, or landlord, or accountant.

We'll ask you for documentation in advance if we think it might be needed.

We'll also call the lawyers if they start to drag their feet.Only on completion, when the solicitors release your funds, is our commission paid. By that time, we hope you'll be enjoying a quiet celebration.
