DUE DILIGENCE

We have been helping buyers of small companies make the right choisce since 1997. You do not have to do it alone and with our due diligence services your chances of making the most informed decision that best meets your own goals is assured.  

Sit back and relax you now have a partner in the process.

All due diligence projects are customized based on your needs. Due diligence requires a qualitative sense to determine where to focus one's attention. It requires ‘been there, done that’ experience that let you know when something requires further investigation and to assess the immediate and longer-term implications of an issue.

Who are our clients?

In the US, most of our clients are principles looking at businesses valued between $100K and $3M with the average transaction price of $450K. Despite the seemingly large range, the mechanics of the acquisition process remain largely the same.

Where do we work?

Our business due diligence work is done via phone, email, fax and Skype. As such we work and have worked worldwide. It should be noted that a site visit by the buyer or (if required) by one of our staff will provide invaluable insight into the health of a business. In some cases our clients are too far from the seller’s locations and we are asked to conduct the visit.

Call today and let's get started finding the right business for you. Due diligence is a critical part of the process. Strict confidentiality is maintained for all engagements.
