Most buyers find out what they bought after they've bought it.
Our clients find out first.
OnPoint advises business owners through the whole ownership cycle, buying, growing and exiting, with the rigour of a big firm and none of the bureaucracy.
We have been highly delighted with the new firm, their responsiveness to our requests, patience in explaining and speed of getting back to us with the necessary information. We enjoy working with them and feel ‘safe in their hands’.Verified client review, Google
Johann sharing the key parts of the due diligence process with business buyers.
Why buyers choose us over the big firms
The big firms are very good at producing long documents. The problem is who writes them. Your engagement is priced by a partner, then delivered by the most junior team they can staff it with, and the findings arrive wrapped in so many caveats that no one could ever hold them to a view. You pay for a name on the cover.
We work the other way round. The person who scopes your engagement is the person who leads it, the analysis is done by people who have bought and run businesses themselves, and the report tells you what we actually think, in writing, in English. A healthy looking profit can hide a customer about to leave. A worrying balance sheet can hide a business one decision away from thriving. Finding which is which is the entire job.
Buy. Grow. Exit.
Four services across the whole ownership cycle.
Already trading and just need an excellent accountant? Our everyday accounting services are here.
Johann Goree, Managing Director.
Two service lines, two named leads
Everything to do with buying, growing and exiting a business, valuations, due diligence, Smart Start and exit planning, is led personally by Johann Goree, our Managing Director. Johann has bought, sold and grown businesses of his own, including this one, so the advice you get comes from someone who has sat on your side of the table, not just audited it. When you commission a report from us, you know exactly whose judgement stands behind it, and you deal with that person directly from first call to final findings.
Our everyday accounting services, the bookkeeping, payroll, tax and management accounts that keep hundreds of UK businesses running, are led by Jade Mountford, our Operations Manager. Jade joined OnPoint in 2018 as a part time bookkeeper and has since helped hundreds of clients keep their finances on point, which is why so many of them ask for her by name. Two service lines, each with a named person accountable for it, which is more than most firms ten times our size will put in writing.

Judge us by the report itself
A due diligence report is only as good as the decisions it lets you make. Ours follow a 35 section framework refined across real acquisitions, covering everything from quality of earnings to working capital to the risks no one volunteers, and every section ends in a finding, not a disclaimer.
We'll happily show you a redacted report before you engage us, because the work is the best advert we have. Most firms won't do that. Ask yourself why.
