Selling of business

Selling a business to an outsider includes many stages where expert help is recommended.

Make sure you have plenty of time

The search for a buyer may also take months. You may also have to have negotiations with several buyer candidates before closing the deal.

There are measures that help carry out a sale: incorporation of a piece of real estate or a part of a business or changing the company form. The tax planning related to these measures may require that you begin the process at least a year before the actual sale.
