Love Grows, Hebden Bridge - 8 offers within 2 weeks of instruction!!!

When the owner of Love Grows in Hebden Bridge telephoned our office, she had serious ill health and her newly formed business needed to be sold very quickly. Obviously as her world had been turned upside down, she didn't know whether she was coming or going and looked to Ernest Wilsons to advise her on the sale. Within a couple of days, our valuer met with her and valued the cafe business which she had been forced to close as her health would not allow her to work. The business was placed on the market at a very competitive price of £9,950 and she was assured that we would get interested parties very quickly. Within 14 days of instruction, 10 clients had viewed and 8 made an offer of the asking price. Whilst the owner was keen to sell, we suggested that a date was made for 'best & final offers'. In the end, a price 50% higher was accepted and completion took place today, just 6 weeks after being instructed. Whilst this speed for a sale is not unknown, it does prove that businesses priced correctly, in the right area and with the right clients been informed, there is still a buoyant market. for more information on Ernest Wilson Business Agents, visit www.ernest-wilson.co.uk
