Am I Ready to Purchase a Veterinary Practice?
Now is the time to invest in yourself and increase your income! Yes, COVID changed our lives and yes, loan rates are a little higher, but if you surround yourself with trusted advisors, you can do it. Start making more money and driving your own ship today.
Transition specialists/brokers are here to help you understand everything about the practice, such as areas of opportunity to grow and to increase collections. If many services are referred out that you may do, what does that increase look like? For example, if the selling veterinarian does no specialty services and you do, we can potentially research the number of referrals and put an average patient fee to it and determine an immediate possible increase in collections.
Loan rates are a little higher, but that little amount is nothing in the life of your career. You may also be able to refinance at some point and your CPA can assist you to take advantage of current tax deductions and accelerated depreciation if it makes sense in your specific situation. Reducing taxes is money in your pocket. As an example, ask your CPA about sections 168, 179, Special Depreciation, and DPAD. Perhaps it is time to incorporate a retirement plan into your office, again, if it makes sense in your situation.
Start talking with us and we can provide contacts for veterinary specific lending, CPAs, and attorneys to help you move forward with your career plans.
