Our Approach

The decision to sell a business or a property may represent one of the most important decisions and may be the realisation of a lifetimes work. Like all important decisions it is full of potential pitfalls.

In approaching the sale, our initial objective is to obtain a detailed understanding of the clients objectives in order to focus on the available options and to provide advice on future strategy. In some cases it may be appropriate to put in place an action plan to prepare for the future sale and where it is not in the clients interest to sell, we will advise accordingly.

Our specialisation in advising clients on the sale of automotive businesses and properties enables us to provide totally independent and impartial advice and, in contrast to our competitors, avoiding any conflict of interest with potential purchasers and car manufacturers.

Our Sales Process

Once a decision has been made to sell, our approach is tailored to the specific circumstances to ensure the sale progresses in a professional and confidential manner.

Our specialist knowledge of the market place enables us to provide clients with an accurate and realistic assessment of the price which may be achieved and also the key issues which need to be addressed. At the same time we are able to present the necessary information in a concise and positive manner and use our knowledge of the market to support the asking price.

Our extensive databases and contacts enable us to pre-select potential purchasers and we have developed very strict procedures to ensure that, where appropriate, confidentiality is maintained as far as possible.

Negotiations

Our vast experience in handling negotiations in relation to the sale of automotive businesses and properties enables us to focus on the key issues and avoid unnecessary delays. Combined with our specific knowledge of both the market and potential purchasers, we are able to add significant value.
