How do you determine the value of my dental practice?
Valuation is a combination of art and science. We analyze your financials, practice management data, clinical offerings, and patient base alongside current Boston market dynamics. We may recommend a listing price higher or lower than the paper value based on buyer demand in your area. If you’re not ready to sell but want to understand your practice’s worth, our Simulated Sale program provides comprehensive insights into your current value and optimization opportunities.
How long does it typically take to sell a dental practice in Boston?
For practices in Boston and the surrounding area with average buyer demand, the timeline is typically 6 to 9 months from the day you sign our contract to closing. Factors that may accelerate or extend the timeline include practice location, patient mix, associate opportunities, and DSO interest. We’ll give you a realistic estimate during your initial consultation.
Will the sale of my practice remain confidential?
Confidentiality is critical, and we take it seriously. We have a rigorous process to ensure anyone who views your practice information has signed a non-disclosure agreement. We control messaging to your staff and patients, and our goal is to keep your transition private until you’re ready to make an announcement.
What happens to the staff after the sale?
Ultimately, the buyer makes final decisions, but it’s in their best interest to retain a skilled team. That’s why we believe it’s so important to have you involved in the buyer selection process. By choosing the right buyer, our hope is that your team will gel with the new owner, and retention is high. We also discuss staff retention and transition plans before closing.
What should I look for when buying a dental practice?
Focus on three key areas: (1) Strong cash flow after paying back debt; (2) A clinical match between the practice’s current services and your own clinical capabilities; and (3) A business model and market that supports your vision. Location, patient demographics, and growth potential also matter. Our team helps you evaluate each opportunity against these criteria.
Do you assist with financing options?
Yes. We have extensive experience in the dental financing industry and connections with lenders who specialize in practice acquisitions. We’ll guide you through the financing process, help you understand your options, and connect you with the right lender for your situation.
