Did you reflect over your holidays about the future? You've been in the industry now for 30+ years and what does the future offer?
Looking back over the last decade LANZ has been reflecting that the time to sell a practice is 5-10 years before you wish to slow down or
retire. Dentists have found it difficult to get good prices once they have already slowed down or they need to finish earlier than planned,
due to ill health.
Why aren't they selling for good prices?
It's because turnover has already started to fall by the time you're thinking of selling. Also, the previous professional model of ownership
was for a dentist to share facilities and run an independent practice. This type of practices is no longer desired, as investors are looking
for company structures without the hassle of needing to put it together.
LANZ has recent experience in successfully selling four independent practices sharing the same facilities. This has been accomplished, as
each of the dentists was willing to continue to work for a varying number of years under the new company structure.
This way each dentist is receiving the value for their past efforts upfront and continues to earn a similar income generally with less
responsibilities.
The answer is to consider selling well before you need to. Get your money upfront and continue to work with your patients
through the transition.
