by a searcher from Johns Hopkins University

I'm in process to close on an acquisition and keen to hear from others what your comprehensive 'to do list' is in preparation of taking ownership of your new business, and how you advise going about it efficiently.

Thank you in advance!

Congrats ^Searchfunder member‌ to getting very close to finalising an acquisition. I concur with all advise above from DD (customer, legal, technology and financials) and getting all of the paperwork (payroll, employment contracts, sale contract, bank account transfer, lease, bookkeeping/accounting) in order are important.
I would love to connect either in person at Melbourne or online when the deal has successfully closed and learn about search fund journey.
