Welcome to this week's Market Update. As a quick reminder we listed two new practices a fortnight ago:
Both are great opportunities for buyers to significantly expand their existing presence, enhance their capability and/or enter attractive new markets.
If either looks like a good fit, don't delay in registering your interest via their respective website listing.
Meanwhile we are delighted for a Melbourne client 1 Principal firm. Melbourne East Fees of $448,000 Accounting and $294,000 FP (ID#209) who successfully executed a Contract of Sale and settled over the last couple of weeks. We were able to generate interest from 89 interested parties and the entire sale process took just four months from listing to settlement. Both the seller and the buyer are extremely happy with the outcome. The level of interest was evidence of the very strong demand for practices with integrated accounting and financial planning offerings. If that's you, and you are looking to examine your options, reach out to us for a confidential discussion.
On a final note, it was terrific to be back in Perth last week presenting at the CPA Australia Public Practice Forum WA 2023. Over 120 practice owners and accountants were in attendance for DMY's Market Update on Buying and Selling Accounting Practices. Lots of interest in our latest market data and plenty of great questions from the floor and over a few glasses of wine afterwards. Congratulations to the CPA Perth team for the location. Scarborough beach was a knockout as the event wrapped up!
