FAQ
- How do I know whether service contracts will continue after the sale?Review assignment, change-of-control, renewal, termination, service-level and penalty clauses in every material contract. Obtain client consents where required and discount revenue based on informal arrangements, short renewals or relationships controlled personally by the seller.
- Which licences should I check in a service-business acquisition?List every service actually delivered and identify the responsible national, provincial, municipal or professional regulator. Verify the licence holder, scope, premises, expiry and transfer process, including approvals tied to a qualified employee.
- How should recurring service revenue be verified?Match contracts and work orders to schedules, invoices, bank receipts and customer confirmations. Measure renewals, cancellations, arrears and gross margin by client, then separate contracted recurring work from once-off jobs and seller-generated referrals.
- What employee issues arise when a service business is sold?Assess whether Section 197 transfers employees automatically with the operation. Review contracts, wages, leave, UIF, PAYE, benefits, disputes and contractor classifications, and agree responsibility for historic liabilities before signing the sale agreement.
- Which prepaid customer obligations can reduce the purchase price?Reconcile deposits, retainers, packages, memberships, warranties, refunds and unfinished jobs to bank receipts and service records. Define who must complete or repay each item and reflect the obligation in completion working capital.
- What data and intellectual property should transfer with the business?List customer records, procedures, software, websites, trademarks, telephone numbers and marketing assets. Verify ownership and transferability, comply with POPIA when moving personal information, and secure administrator access before releasing the final purchase payment.
