Business Sale

You’ve worked hard to build up a successful business and now you’ve decided it’s time to do something else. How do you achieve the best capital return on the sale of the business that has provided you with a good lifestyle for many years? These are some of the questions you will no doubt ask yourself:

  • How do I go about selling a business?
  • What information will I have to give to prospective purchasers?
  • Who will want to buy it?
  • What is it worth?
  • Will I be able to sell it for a single lump sum or will I have to take deferred payments over several years.
  • Will I be able to walk away from the business or will the purchaser want to keep me on to run it for a while? How will this affect the price I get?
  • I run my business through a limited company. Should I sell the shares or should I keep them and sell the business?
  • If I keep the shares and sell the business, how do I get the money out of the company?
