It’s good to talk!!

Buying a new business is a significant decision for most people and there are so many different types of businesses for sale presenting different opportunities, different profitability levels, different locations, requiring different lifestyles to run and we could go on!

Prospective buyers are not only faced with a very large choice of different businesses available but also a whole host of questions to ponder such as:

• What type of business should I buy?
• What is involved in running this, or that business?
• Should I buy a leasehold, freehold or mobile business?
• How do I go about finding the one suitable for my needs?
• How do I assess it’s profitability?
• Can I raise finance to buy a business, if so how much and how do I go about it?
• What legal support will I need?
Just a few questions of many!

Why ponder alone when you have specialists that can help you? Here at Ernest Wilsons we have Business Consultants who spend day after day talking to prospective buyers discussing with them all aspects of finding and buying a business.

This is a free, friendly and informal discussion, over a cup of tea or coffee, you are not committed to taking your interest any further. We just want to help. So many people have found this an extremely useful 45 mins - we are sure you will too!

Email us at sales@ernest-wilson.co.uk, or ring us on 0113 238 2900 and arrange a consultation for either Monday to Friday or Saturday morning.

The business market so far....

This morning, a client asked me 'what is the business market like at the moment' - that is a hard question to answer as the market clearly is volatile. One way to measure performance is based on business sales compared to the same period last year. Well on this indication everything is fine! Business sales volume is clearly up on last year and for a number of months the increases have been significant. The sales price of businesses is also a reflection of the market and I can deduce that the average sale price is 3.4% up on last year. Whilst only marginal, this is still an increase and is going in the right direction. I have spoken to a number of associates who are Estate Agents who do not deal with business sales and they are similarly saying that sales have increased and their average sale price is likewise. Commercial Business Agents are few and far between in comparison to Residential Estate Agents although the market is connected as many clients wishing to buy a business or commercial property often have houses to sell therefore reliant upon the house market.

Financing of businesses is also a question that is often raised. Gladly, banks seem to be opening up their lending books and often, business loans or commercial mortgages can be raised within only a few weeks - often the rates are extremely competitive, bearing in mind the low base rate that is static.

If you would like to discuss the business market or are looking to buy a business or sell a business, contact me or visit our website at www.ernest-wilson.co.uk
