A guide to Buying a Business

Buying an existing business is a good way of gaining a ready-made entry into a market, as it provides a relatively quick start compared to the time needed to build a new enterprise from scratch.

However, it can be a complicated and time-consuming process and requires a great deal of research into both the business itself and the market in which it operates.

This guide explains the process of buying a business. It discusses the pros and cons of buying a business, the various methods for valuing one, how and what to check before and after making an offer, and the most common ways to finance the purchase.
