How we sell your Montreal professional services business
Business Valuation
Get an accurate, market-based valuation of your business — the foundation of every successful sale.
Exit Planning
Build value deliberately for the 1–5 years before sale so you exit at a premium, not a fire-sale.
Confidentiality
Your employees, customers and competitors learn last — that's the foundation of every deal we run.
Transition Support
Help your buyer succeed — protect your earn-out, reputation, and vendor takeback note.
Succession Planning
Transition your business to the next generation — or to a third party when family isn't the answer.
Tax Structuring
The right deal structure can save you 15–30% in tax — far more than fee differences across advisors.
