Professional Appraisals
An experienced appraiser is part and parcel of a successful school supplies and equipment wholesale and manufacturers business sale. Armed with a professional appraisal, both you and your broker can enter the negotiation stage with confidence. Following the appraisal, you may choose to delay your sale until you can increase the value of assets and revenue.
