On occasion, private patient lists or alternatively NHS contracts can be sold without the premises and with or without team members.
Dental practices that are growing on the private side or are unable to sustain there NHS contract can sell their contract within a 3-mile radius. Given the smaller radius of potential buyers, and the need for spare surgery space to fulfill the contract, a seller is unlikely to receive the same value when compared to selling the practice.
Equally, private practices can often sell patient lists, particularly on Harley Street and Wimpole Street, often payment is contingent on the patients that join and attend the new practice.
This can be a very good option for Dental practice sellers that own the Freehold property and are looking to convert it from commercial to residential to achieve a higher market value.
