Experience from both sides of the table

AccountingHub was founded by professionals who understand accounting firms from the inside. After successfully building and selling our own practice, we recognized the need for a more thoughtful, hands-on approach to accounting practice sales in Canada.

We work closely with firm owners to ensure that transitions are:

Structured

Every engagement follows a defined timeline with clear milestones, so you always know what comes next and nothing falls through the cracks.

Confidential

Your decision to sell stays private. We use strict information controls and only introduce vetted, qualified buyers under NDA.

Financially sound

We conduct thorough valuations grounded in real market data, ensuring you receive a fair price that reflects the true worth of your practice.

Aligned with long-term goals

We take the time to understand what matters most to you — whether that is client continuity, staff retention, or a phased transition — and match you accordingly.

Selling your practice is not simply a transaction. It is the transfer of relationships, responsibility, and reputation. It deserves careful guidance.

We bring a disciplined, relationship‑first approach to every engagement.

Selective Engagement

We prioritize quality over volume so every client receives more attention and a better overall experience.

Frequently asked questions

How are accounting practices valued?
Valuation depends on recurring revenue quality, client concentration, service mix, profitability, staffing structure, and transition risk. We provide case-specific guidance.
How long does a sale typically take?
Most transactions require 6-9 months from initial discussion to closing, depending on preparation, buyer fit, and financing.
Will my staff or clients know I am considering selling?
Confidentiality is central to our process. Information is shared in controlled stages with qualified buyers only.
Is financing available for buyers?
In many transactions, outside financing is possible when the practice shows healthy cash flow and the buyer has the right experience, credit profile, and financial capacity. Where bank financing is limited, seller financing can sometimes be part of the structure.
How does AccountingHub find and qualify buyers?
AccountingHub uses direct outreach, targeted marketing, and its buyer network to attract interest. Before introductions are made, we assess buyer fit, seriousness, and financial readiness so sellers spend time with credible prospects.
What risks should buyers and sellers pay close attention to?
The biggest issues usually involve client concentration, employee retention, transition execution, and whether the buyer is prepared to actively build trust with clients after closing. We help both sides identify these risks early and plan around them.
Will I need to stay involved after the sale closes?
Often, yes. Many owners remain available for an initial handoff period and occasional follow-up during the first year so clients and staff experience a smoother transition. The right timeline depends on the deal structure and both parties' expectations.
When should I start preparing if I may want to sell in the next few years?
Ideally, preparation begins 12-24 months before going to market. Early planning creates time to improve reporting, reduce avoidable risk, address client concentration issues, and shape a transition story that is more attractive to buyers.
What information should be ready before speaking with serious buyers?
Buyers typically expect clear financial statements, revenue breakdowns, client concentration details, staffing information, and an overview of services and systems. Having this information organized early helps maintain momentum and supports more informed discussions.
