Frequently Asked Questions
Most established businesses with proven cash flow and trading history can be financed. We specialise in trades businesses but can arrange finance for manufacturing, and other commercial enterprises. The key factors are business stability, tangible asset base, profitability, and strategic business fit.
This can vary widely based on the specifics of the deal. Typically 50-60% of the purchase price can be financed, depending on the business type, assets, and cash flow. Some acquisitions may qualify for higher percentages depending on the strength of the deal. We'll work with you to optimise the finance structure.
Due diligence typically includes detailed financial analysis, business valuation, business planning and strategic fit, legal review, and market analysis. The level of scutiny depends on the transaction size and complexity. We will manage this with you throughout the process
The timeline varies based on transaction complexity and due diligence requirements. Simple acquisitions may settle within 4-6 weeks, while complex deals can take 8-12 weeks. We work to match the finance timeline to your purchase contract requirements wherever possible. Be aware these deals are typically much more involved than a normal business application, so can take longer.
Security typically includes General Security Agreements over the business being acquired and its assets and Personal Guarantees from Directors and major Shareholders. Additional security may include property, other business assets, or corporate guarantees from other trading entities depending on the deal structure and risk assessment.
