The Future Opportunity

The current owners are looking to sell the business to enable the company to continue its positive growth trend. With greater capacity, a larger team, greater use of online services, training packages and possible subscription revenue models the business could experience significant further growth.

The current owners are keen to actively engage with new owners and share their thoughts on key growth areas and strategies to build on the work that has been done to date. They recognise that there is likely to be a requirement for the main fee earner to be involved for a transition period to be agreed.


Advertising:

The business has grown from word of mouth and referrals.

The company has an operational website and a social media presence with LinkedIn and Twitter.

With greater capacity the company would benefit from a targeted marketing campaign with wider social media links, SEO and comprehensive content writing.


Employees:

The business is supported by the following:

2 Directors (Chartered Surveyor and Finance/Operational Director)
Full Time Graduate Trainee
2 Secretarial Staff
Consultant Surveyors as and when required

Premises:

The Directors operate the business from a centrally located office. The property can be leased with flexible short or long terms and there is also an opportunity to purchase the freehold by separate negotiation.


Financial Information:

The business is being offered for sale on a going concern basis, all financial discussions will take place directly between the vendor and all interested parties under the auspices of Turner Butler.

The business has achieved a history of excellent growth and profitability over the last 3 years.

Turnover to 31st August 2024 £263,171
Gross profit circa £186,489
