VALUATIONS
What is Valuation and why should I have it done?
Professional valuation offers business owners an objective opinion as to the value of a closely-held business by assisting:
-
owners in estimating an "asking price" when their business is being sold.
-
buyers in evaluating an "asking price" when a business is being bought.
-
attorneys in property and asset divisions in divorce cases.
-
attorneys in property and asset divisions in the dissolution of a business.
-
financial institutions in determining credit risks.
-
estate planners in strategic planning, budgeting, finance, taxation and retirement.
-
vendors in determining value of business stocks.
​
Professional valuators use accurate statistical, economic, and comparative data and are trained in sound methods of performing valuation procedures. They are proficient in software systems, which allow them to do accurate analysis and valuation.
