Ernest Wilson review of the year so far.....

As of the 15th May 2013, the market for business sales is certainly a lot brighter than last year. Viewings of business have shown a marked increase and likewise the volume of sales has increased.

Confidence in the market is a big factor, especially if clients are needing to borrow money and we are certainly receiving better feedback and confidence does seem to be returning.

Speaking to our preferred lender, Lloyds/TSB business, they are keen to lend money on the right businesses and to the right clients.

Being self employed is becoming more popular and hopefully this will continue as confidence grows.
