Why involve a dental broker?
There are many reasons to warrant involving a reputed broker when selling a practice and three of the most important are set out below:
Operation
Financial and operational advice on all types and groups of dental practices can be provided by a good broker. They can benchmark areas of the account that may be dragging down the valuation and provide advice on maximising the value of the business.
Market knowledge
Day-to-day dentistry can cut you off from a wider knowledge of the dental business market. A good dental broker provides valuable market knowledge and has a critical inside track on current and historic transactions. They are able to profile the types of buyer who would be attracted to your practice and have solid market penetration by actively networking with groups of potential buyers.
Value
A good broker will be able to advise you on the current value of your practice. Many organisations advertise their ability and desire to buy dental practices and they attempt to lure vendors in by portraying a particular culture. However, their messaging never includes the fact they will pay market leading values. A good broker will provide the leverage that is needed to achieve this, which on its own will far outweigh their fees.
