Accounting firms trade on recurring revenue and client stickiness. A book heavy with monthly write up, payroll, and advisory work is worth more than one built on once a year tax returns. Deal structure matters as much as price, because retention clauses, earnouts, and transition periods determine how much of the headline number you actually keep. We broker CPA firms with structures that keep clients in the chair and money in your pocket.
We separate recurring engagements from seasonal tax work and price your firm on the durable base buyers value most.
We negotiate transition periods and retention terms that protect your payout without trapping you for years.
From solo CPAs expanding to regional firms and roll-ups, we connect you with buyers who can service your clients well.

Many deals tie part of the price to client retention after closing. We negotiate terms that are fair and structure the transition to maximize the clients who stay, protecting your proceeds.
Yes. We structure transition periods around your goals, whether that is a clean exit or a gradual handoff over a defined period.
