In some transactions, the buyer may ask you to work on for 1-5 years and so it is important to plan ahead and ensure you start the sale process early enough to match your proposed timeline.

Each practice is unique and our regional Business Development Managers will be able to advise you on the current market trends that will impact your particular practice and when the best time is to sell.

A dental buyer will want to see growth potential within a dental practice and the available chair-capacity or expansion space to capitalise on this.

The due diligence process is often the biggest time commitment for sellers. We have an in-house due-diligence specialist who will support you through the sale and can provide you with a checklist early on the in the process so you can start to prepare the required documentation.
