Text Box: Top Tips for Financing a Business Purchase

* Calculate how much you need. Do not underestimate costs and working capital will be required

* Look beyond just the best interest rate. Understand the loan structure, security required, fees and charges

* Ensure you have had an independent professional conduct a thorough due diligence on the business

* Make a plan to repay debt. If the business can not afford it the loan it is probably poorly structured loan

* Listen to advice from industry experts. Do not forget that lots of other people have done this before

* Get the right loan structure to fit your specific requirements. Do not just stick to your current Bank, there might be more competitive loans and structures elsewhere

* Have your loan approval in place BEFORE exchanging purchase contracts (you don't want to lose your deposit!) OR if you do exchange contracts make sure there is a strong subject to finance clause in the contract 

* Ensure you have full information on the business including financials, lease terms, staffing, suppliers and———-store history

* Prepare a Business Plan and cash-flow projections and ensure you revisit them regularly

* Review your borrowings with a specialist periodically to ensure they still are right for you and your evolving circumstances
