How are you selling the work Don?

Do  you have lists and account records to back up the figures?

Noticed there were at least 3 people wanting the work on the rounds for sale section. Did you not contact them?

No Disrespects but.

For £7k worth of work a year, £4k is a bit on the high side.

Most people who are in a position to buy work probably pick up that in new jobs from word of mouth throughout the year anyway.

Since its not a huge amount of work you can't really put a premium on it tbh. Although..Adam..3 times the monthly turnover is also a bit low.

If I was buying your work (im not) I'd be looking to pay 4.5-5.5 times the monthly turnover but that would have to include accounts to back up the figures.

So I'd appraise it at £2600-£3300.

3x the work lol I'd never ever sell for that I'd rather let it go out of spite of the offers,if a WC said yeah but you'll just lose it I'd say yeah and you try finding all my work without me and a satnav pal.

Say for example you said to someone I'm gonna give you £2000 in your pocket almost every month if you give me £6000 they'd think you were a bit stupid let's be honest I would,for £6000 you've given them a ready made business ready to be built upon. I think a lot of people undervalue there business and what it gives you in return compared to other businesses in terms of monthly outlay verses profit,if someone said to me I've got cash I'll give you 3 x your monthly take I'd laugh in there face and say I bet you would.

You sit on your derriere bleating on here about all sorts of utter nonsense, including  how  you "teach your wife a lesson" and she is out working in the very van you want to sell?

Talk about sawing off the branch you are sitting on.

How can you know that your wife is out working and you do nothing to contribute?

It's a game of three halves!

I would have  bought it off you Simon mate, price is fine. Just some of it is too far away. I will end up all over West Yorkshire and spending ages driving using up petrol
