Determine the Value of a Dental Practice
It is important to have an accurate practice valuation when selling a dental practice. A dental broker can value a dental practice and help you understand the financial state of your business. If your practice is valued too low, your practice will sell for lower than it may be worth. If your practice is valued too high, your listing can sit on the market for a long time.
Get a Dental Practice Valuation
To get a dental practice valuation, work with a dental broker experienced in dental sales to assess your practice. A proper valuation will involve answering questions about your practice including income tax information and other records to calculate the right price for your practice.
Once you’ve decided that a practice transition is in your future, get in touch with a dental practice broker to understand your options, determine the value of your practice, and prepare your practice to get the highest return.
