A retained client base and dependable annuity revenue make a CPA firm highly valuable. When you're ready to transition, you want a confidential process and a qualified successor who protects those relationships.

Valley Acquisitions helps CPA firm owners transition practices with care. The first conversation is free and confidential. You get a defensible valuation built around your recurring revenue and retention, and a transition plan that protects your staff and clients.

Selling a CPA firm — common questions
How do I sell my CPA firm?
Start with a free, confidential call. We review your operations, financials, and your recurring client base and annuity revenue, give you a fair valuation, agree on terms, and plan a transition that protects your staff and clients before coordinating a smooth close.
What's the difference between selling my CPA firm and my accounting practice?
They're closely related — the right page depends on how you describe your firm. Either way, we value the business on recurring revenue, retention, and service mix, and plan a careful client transition.

How do you keep clients through the transition?
We plan a confidential, staged hand-off so clients experience continuity, which protects retention and value under the new owner.
What happens to your staff and clients after I sell?
We buy and help transition businesses to keep them running and growing. Our continuity plans are designed to keep your staff in place and clients well cared for through the transition.
