Experience our client-focused approach
There are so many intricate, moving parts in the sale of a dealership. Not only must you consider the value of the business itself, but also any related reinsurance companies and real estate. You have to think of the potential tax implications, seasonal timing, buyer vetting, and the OEM approval process, among many other things.
You don’t have to assemble a team of advisors on your own. CLA has the ideal combination of deeply experienced dealership industry, business transaction support, and wealth advisory professionals to help you strategically plan and navigate every step of the sale, including all the things you never even thought about. As a cohesive unit, we work to understand everything you want to accomplish from the sale, both professionally and personally. We’ll help you achieve your goals, and we’ll see the transaction through to completion and beyond, with personal investments and wealth management up to and through your retirement.
