Business Valuation

Buying a Business

Don't fly blind! If you are in the process of buying a business, a business valuation will enable an informed negotiation. BizValue offers a Business Valuation with a letter report specifically designed for the buyer of a business. This report contains a conclusion of value supported by six to ten calculations commonly used by buyers and sellers to value private businesses. 

Selling a Business

We provide an opinion of fair market value, a likely selling range for for the business, and an assessment of factors that may make the business difficult to sell or difficult to receive 'top tier' pricing. This type of report is essential and should be obtained a year or more in advance of the time frame within which an owner would like to sell.   

Valuations for Tax Filings

BizValue provides “Summary Reports” designed for the support of tax filings. Valuations that may be subject to review by the Internal Revenue Service are designed to conform to the IRS’s own IRS Standards including Revenue Statement 59-60 and the Internal Revenue Service Business Valuation Guidelines.

Valuations for Divorce

A conclusion based based on 'fair value' or ‘value to the estate’ is generally appropriate in Washington. A well written report that is comprehensible and agreeable to both parties is an aid to resolution in the mediation phase of a contested divorce.
