How it works
Start with where you are today
An acquisition is more than the purchase price. Your experience, the target business, your contribution and the proposed deal structure all shape the funding conversation.
You can take the check before you have found a target. Broad estimates are fine. Extra financial detail is optional, and confidential target documents can wait for a secure adviser conversation.
Additional financial detail is optional. Your answers support this acquisition enquiry; ongoing marketing is optional.

What we ask
A useful starting point for your enquiry
Questions about your plans, with room for the things you are still working out.
Deal stage and type
From exploring a first purchase to a management buy-out, franchise or buy-and-build.
Funding structure
Purchase price, external funding and your planned contribution before, during and after completion.
Experience and guarantees
Your buying experience and personal-guarantee preferences give an adviser context; they do not decide eligibility.
Target and timing
What you know about trading performance, who would run the business and when you hope to complete.
This check provides preparation guidance, not a finance offer or lending decision. An adviser will need to assess affordability, security and lender requirements. Any fees for further work will be explained before you decide to proceed.
Give your acquisition plan a clearer next step
You do not need a finished deal proposal to start the conversation.
