Where our business valuers operate

How much is your "Business Worth?"

Business Valuation, or Business Appraisal?

Appraisal – or Valuation… what is the difference?

A business valuation is an extensive, comprehensive report on the value of a business. It involves rigorous study, research and understanding. An appraisal, is a much simpler report. It provides a guide to the current market value of a business, and whilst accurate and relevant, it is a much simpler document than a valuation.

It is wise to understand the market value of your business. Benchmark Business Sales & Valuations is uniquely positioned to provide business owners with certified business valuations. Benchmark’s registered business valuers utilise actual current market sales when assessing the market value of a business.

Benchmark has Registered Business Valuers working in Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia – and we are able to provide business appraisal and valuations (under engagement), across those states. With many years of experience and training – our team has the knowledge and understanding to provide clients with market-based business valuations and appraisals.

WHY Benchmark?

What’s involved in a business valuation?

In general, the value of a business will rely on an analysis of the company’s cash flow, future risks, future opportunities, market demand, assets, and sales evidence. At Benchmark we have many years of sales data (evidence) to call upon to support the assessed business value. We are some of Australia’s most experienced business valuers.

The process is simple, but it is thorough, and involves you providing us with your financial accounts and other information (such as employee details and asset register.

The steps are:

  1. You advise us of your requirements
  2. We send you a letter of engagement
  3. You engage Benchmark by signing the letter
  4. We send you a request for information
    50% of the valuation fee is paid
  5. Upon provision of the information we will commence the production of the valuation report
  6. A draft report is produced and provided for discussion
  7. The report is finalised and balance of payment made
