Longstanding Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Tax firm for sale in Barrie

About This Practice

This is a very well-established practice offering services in the areas of bookkeeping, accounting, tax, and consulting. The firm has earned a quality reputation over many years, with many longstanding clients. The client base is very stable having loyal clients in quality industries. While the owner has maintained the practice at their preferred size and workload, there’s much opportunity for a buyer to leverage client referrals, established reputation, and growing small business market. Staff are highly capable and committed. Employees work directly with the clients in a team approach to service, allowing the owner to focus on the higher level work, and growing consulting specialty.

Staff work independently with little supervision. Workflow is effective and efficient. Very low owner hours also provide time for business development and increased client capacity. Equally, an owner looking to optimize their work life balance would have the ability to scale according to their preference. Software and platforms are industry standard, along with full remote/cloud capability. The office is professional and very well located, easily accessed locally and by major routes.
