We moved into the office on Wednesday 4th September which was three weeks ago. We have had the whole of the building decorated, new carpets, new lighting, new blinds, new loos, new computer “stuff” and pre-loved furniture. We suffered from no phones, phones that didn’t work, phones that sort of worked and now phones that work fine. We had no …
Looking to buy fees in the summer holidays?
Draper Hinks has worked through many summers and we have found the cycle to be the same each year. Sellers of accountancy fees often take a long time to decide that they want to sell their fees.

Why your practice is like an apple pie

Not all vendors want to sell the whole of their practice, some like to downsize and ease their way into retirement. Others …
