		<title>Ask an Expert - Buying A Business</title>
		<description>
		Buying a practice is challenge for the inexperienced and young professionals.

A good practitioner doesn't necessarily make a great practice owner.  The burden of ownership and practice management require specialised development and training.  While some are instinctively good at it, most will need to develop their management skills (or those of their support team) to match their professional skills.

We have found that informed buyers ask the right questions and gather the important information early in the process. This gives them a head start in the negotiating process.		</description>
