Why choose Ernest Wilsons?

Talking to a client earlier whose business I valued last week, he asked me 'Why choose Ernest Wilsons' as he had obtained valuations from 3 agents. I explained that all estate agents are not the same. At Ernest Wilson business agents, we offer the following; Very discreet Free valuations out of office hours if required No money up front whatsoever Local and national advertising Regular contact and updates Competitive fees Experienced valuers A huge database of purchasers Recommended by Solicitors & Accountants EPC assessors The client explained to me that both other agents valued his business over 30% higher - I suggested to the client that he spoke to the other agents and asked them for a list of similar businesses to his that they had sold within a 2 mile radius. Businesses are only worth what a client is willing to pay - the best way to gauge this is to compare businesses with businesses that have recently sold. At Ernest Wilsons, as we sell a high volume of businesses, we have a very accurate list of comparable businesses. We are more than happy to provide comparable evidence to clients when having their business valued - this is something that other agents are unwilling to do, we assume this is because they do not sell many businesses - many agents make their money not by selling businesses but by obtaining monies up front - this is a practice that Ernest Wilsons do not adopt - we do not ask for money up front. Thankfully, the client has agreed to instruct our agency and I am sure that he has made the right choice. for more information on Ernest Wilson Business Agents, visit www.ernest-wilson.co.uk
