What is your business worth?
If you've tried to get a straight answer, you already know the problem.
You've maybe already spoken to your accountant, or the report came back so generic you're not confident it would survive a real challenge from a buyer's lawyer, from SARS, from a divorce court, or from a partner who thinks the number is wrong.
Valuation isn't a checkbox. It's the number everything else gets built on: your negotiation, your settlement, your funding, your peace of mind about whether you've actually built something worth what you think it's worth.
The PROBLEM with basic valuation reports
Vague reports, high fees.
Boilerplate valuations that don't hold up when someone actually pushes back.
Nobody who's done this before.
Generalist accountants treat valuation as an afterthought, not a specialism.
Numbers that don't survive scrutiny.
A rough multiple applied to last year's profit doesn't hold up to SARS, a court, or a sharp buyer's advisor.
This is built for South African business owners who need a valuation right now, because:
You're going through a divorce or separation and the business needs to be valued for the court
A co-founder or shareholder is exiting and you need an agreed number before a deadline
SARS has flagged your company for review and you need proper documentation
You're raising funding and the bank or investor won't move without a valuation
A shareholder has passed away and the estate needs a valuation for probate
Year-end reporting or BEE/restructuring compliance requires it

Fixed Price & Timeline
Agreed upfront before work starts — no hourly billing or surprise invoices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How is this different from asking my accountant?
Most accountants treat valuation as a side task, not a specialism. This is the only thing this practice does — and every report follows a proper, defensible methodology rather than a quick multiple applied to last year's profit.
How long does it take?
The entire process generally takes between 7 and 10 working days. Quicker turnarounds can be requested and is dependent on speed of documents and information provided.
What if the other side (buyer, ex-spouse, co-shareholder) challenges the number?
Every valuation is built on a documented, recognized methodology specifically so it can withstand scrutiny — that's the point of paying for an independent valuation rather than estimating it yourself.
My business has some international or offshore elements — can you still help?
Yes — international and cross-border structures are something we have experience with.
Is this legal/tax/financial advice?
No — this is an independent valuation service. For legal, tax, or financial advice, you should consult your own lawyer, tax adviser, or financial adviser.
