Business valuations — how it works

The road to achieving the best sales outcome

Valuing a business is a complex process. A business valuation from Nash Advisory can give you an understanding of what you stand to gain. Here's how our analysis process works:

  • We identify key areas of strength and weakness, and scope out areas for improvement
  • We compare your business to others in the market along with similar sales results to gauge your relative strength
  • We fully explain how the results of this analysis can impact your valuation and saleability

The first step is to organise a free initial consultation with our team. Fill in the form and we will contact you to arrange a discovery call.

Your questions answered

What is involved in due diligence?

Your buyer will want to consider every aspect of your Warrnambool business. From financials, contracts and customers to industry tailwinds and management. This process takes one to four months, depending on your ability to access key data. Our experts will keep pushing forward to ensure diligence runs smoothly.

Is my data safe when talking to a competitor?

We guarantee to keep your data safe. Potential buyers must sign confidentiality agreements before the distribution of any information. Typically, we do this in three batches, withholding sensitive information, including key customers and pricing, until the end of the transaction. This is critical in situations where the buyer is a direct competitor.  

How much will the buyer pay, and how long will they take?

Warrnambool is a high-demand location in regional Victoria. Our Nash 360 Valuation Report gives a 'view of value', and we engage trusted buyers and investors early in the first three months. After that, the market will determine the overall value of your business for sale in Warrnambool Vic 3280.

Who are the likely buyers when selling my business in Warrnambool?

The size of your Warrnambool business and management team and your industry will determine the breadth of your buyer pool. Buyers range from private investors, large trade buyers or private equity firms. As every buyer group acquires businesses differently, we consider this and develop a plan accordingly.

How long does the process take to sell my business in Warrnambool?

Selling your Warrnambool business will generally take six to twelve months. Our Nash Advisory are experts in their field. We set out all key expectations and have a clear, strong business sale strategy to cover all areas of the process. Having a thoroughly-planned and executed process makes you more likely to receive a better outcome as the vendor.
