Valuations
Independent Valuations
To maintain objectivity and full compliance with industry standards, BizParkway partners exclusively with licensed third-party valuation firms rather than performing valuations internally. This approach safeguards the integrity of each assessment and ensures that every appraisal is supported by verified financial data and current market evidence. Once engaged, we coordinate all document transfers and communication between our clients and the valuation team, keeping the process streamlined, confidential, and transparent from start to finish.
Knowing what your business is truly worth is essential when planning a sale, acquisition, partner buyout, or succession strategy. Through our network of independent valuation specialists, BizParkway helps clients obtain accurate, defensible assessments tailored to their specific goals and circumstances.
These external experts provide valuations for a broad range of purposes — from business sales and shareholder buyouts to estate planning, financing, and other special situations. By working with trusted analysts, we help our clients gain a clear, objective picture of value before making critical decisions.
Broker’s Opinion of Value (BOV)
A Broker’s Opinion of Value provides an informed estimate of what a business may sell for in the current market. While not a formal valuation, it offers owners a practical, experience-based perspective on value — useful for setting asking prices, preparing for exit, or refining long-term financial strategies.
The opinion typically considers recent comparable sales, market conditions, financial performance, industry trends, and other key variables such as location or growth potential.
Along with these insights, our partner brokers may outline how different deal structures could influence sale price and tax outcomes — giving owners a clearer understanding of the full transaction landscape.
At BizParkway, our role is to connect you with the right valuation professionals and ensure the process is handled with discretion, accuracy, and integrity from start to finish.
