Looking for a business valuation near you?
Start with the decision you need to make. A nearby adviser may be useful when you need an in-person meeting, but proximity alone does not tell you whether the valuation will address the right question. This service accepts remote enquiries from UK business owners, with work scoped around the company, the interest being valued and the intended use.
Tell us your business town or postcode district in the optional field above. You do not need to provide a private home address or upload accounts to start a conversation. If attendance at your premises is important, raise that requirement before agreeing an engagement; remote coverage does not mean there is an office in your town.
When the local market affects the numbers
A business that serves customers within a small catchment can have different risks from one selling nationally. Customer concentration, premises costs, staff availability and competition can influence sustainable earnings. The useful evidence is specific to the business, rather than a standard valuation multiple for a postcode.
For example, if a shop’s lease is due for renewal, the current rent may not represent its future cost. A valuation brief should identify the lease terms and any available evidence of renewal costs. That question sits alongside trading performance, required investment and the owner’s role; it does not establish a value on its own.
Choose the work around your purpose
- Sale or exit planning: explain what is being sold, the expected timetable and whether premises are included.
- Shareholder transactions: identify the holding, rights, restrictions and valuation date.
- Fundraising: outline the investment sought, forecast milestones and ownership before and after the round.
A practical first conversation
- Give your contact details, purpose and optional business location.
- Discuss the business model, where it operates and any deadline.
- Agree the information request, reporting format and permitted use.
- Consider the scope and fee before commissioning the work.
Where a business owns specialist assets or needs property evidence, discuss whether a separate specialist assessment is required. A business valuation should not be assumed to include a property survey or an inspection.
