PE-backed platforms, national groups, trade buyers looking to add your contracts. But most owners have no idea who is genuinely buying, who has the capital to close, and who will waste months of your time. Without competing offers, there is no leverage. The buyer sets the pace, anchors low, and waits. ### "How will a buyer value my recurring revenue from fire risk assessment and fire door inspection contracts?" Acquirers place a high value on recurring revenue streams. Your fire risk assessment and fire door inspection contracts will be a key driver of valuation, and we can help you structure them to maximize their worth. ### "What will happen to my team of experienced fire risk assessors and passive fire protection installers after the sale?" Your team of qualified fire risk assessors and passive fire protection installers is a significant asset. Acquirers are keen to retain experienced and certified professionals to ensure continuity of service. ### "How does the new Building Safety Act and the focus on post-Grenfell remediation affect the timing and valuation of my business sale?" The increased focus on building safety following the Grenfell Tower tragedy has created a favorable market for businesses like yours. The Building Safety Act and other regulatory changes have increased demand for your services.
