Our Advisory Services
Acquisition Advisory
Buy with confidence. Understand the process, the costs and risks involved and have the funds available to negotiate from a position of strength.
- Due diligence - We don't do due diligence for clients - but we'll give you a guide to the process, what to look for, what information to request, and what questions to ask.
- Valuation guidance - Professional practices and other businesses have fairly well-established guidelines based on market sales and their lending guidelines.
- Funding structure - The right loan structure, preservation of tax minimisation & risk management strategies are a priority - if possible, we try to keep the family home separate to business lending.
