Practice Readiness Check Up

Most of the time, dentists sell their practice on a time frame they choose and on their own terms. Unfortunately, circumstances sometimes dictate that a practice must be sold on a timeline that was never anticipated. In either case, many factors determine the value and saleability of a practice. If you wait until it is time to sell, it is often too late to address many of them.

Tier Three's Ready to Sell Check-Up will give you a great overview of how prepared your practice is for a sale in the near future. We'll cover critical factors that affect you, the buyer, and the tax man, and give you real-world advice on how to address any issues we uncover.

Talking to an expert can help. If your grade was lower than you would like, or if you have questions about how some of the assessment factors impact you, a Tier Three expert is never more than a phone call away. We will be happy to do a complementary review of your practice sale readiness and discuss options you may have to significantly improve the value and saleability of your practice.
