Selling Your Business

BUSINESS VALUATION (AND HOW TO IMPROVE IT)

We can work with you to value your net assets and goodwill, taking into account your aspirations.  

SELLING YOUR BUSINESS

The structure of a sale may affect the price obtainable.  We can help you to decide what works best for you, with advice on how to market your business, who to approach, likely timescales and target price.

TAX PLANNING

Selling a business may have capital gains tax implications.  We can assist you to maximise entrepreneur’s relief and any other tax allowances to achieve the largest gain on sale in the most tax beneficial manner.

KEEPING IT IN THE FAMILY

Many entrepreneurs wish to pass on their successful businesses to their children.  This may be by bringing them into a partnership or as shareholders in a limited company.  Issues such as effective control and decision making of the founder may become relevant.  We can assist you in achieving this in the most cost and tax effective way.
