Thinking about retirement, succession, or stepping back? Practice Group buys UK accountancy practices direct. No auction. No tyre-kickers. Just a grown-up conversation with the buyer.
It's not just numbers. It's your name, your people, and years of relationships. Deal direct and you cut the noise, the fees and the delays.
You're speaking to the decision-maker, not passing messages through a deal team.
No listing your practice around the market. Early conversations can be anonymous.
Fewer parties, fewer games, fewer delays. One honest conversation.
A deal shaped around your timeline and your handover — not a broker's calendar.
"I'm not here to squeeze a practice dry. I'm here to build a group worth joining."
— Andy, co-founder & buyer
20–30 minutes on your goals, timeline, client mix and team.
A sensible range, and the drivers that move it up or down.
The essentials: recurring fees, concentration, staffing, compliance.
Price, structure, timeline and your involvement, agreed.
A calm handover that protects clients and staff.
Deal structures commonly include cash + deferred, an earn-out, or a phased step-down. We recommend what fits your goals — not what looks clever on paper.
Practice Group isn't only a buyer. We run back offices, deliver compliance, help firms move clients up to advisory, and give owners a fractional COO and FD. So whether you want to sell now, step back gradually, or simply take the back office off your plate, there's a way to work together — and you'd be joining a group with real delivery muscle behind you.
White-label bookkeeping, accounts, tax and payroll — delivered in your name, to your standard.

Learn more →Buzz is our in-house delivery business — owned by Practice Group and built from the ground up. Not a patchwork of outsourcers, but one team we created, with people in four places, all working to a single standard.
Owned by us, built by us — full-service delivery, joined up across every location.
You'll speak to the buyer — not a junior on a deal team.
I'm Andy. I buy practices directly, and I care about the human side of these deals. I want to build a group where clients are looked after, staff aren't burnt out, and the business is easier to run than it's ever been.
If you want a straight conversation about your options, I'm happy to have it — even if you decide not to sell.
Start with a range, not a sales pitch. Most owners want clarity on four things — and a confidential call is the fastest way to get it.
We buy directly. You speak to the buyer, which keeps things simpler and typically avoids broker fees.
Very. Early conversations can be anonymous. We only involve staff or clients once a plan is agreed.
We're open-minded — fit matters more than size, whether you're a sole practitioner or a larger firm.
Not always. Some owners want a clean break; others step down over time. We build the plan around you.
Continuity matters. In most deals, retaining the team is part of protecting clients and service.
Still worth a call. Often we map a short value-uplift plan — or start with back-office support — so you exit stronger.
On the call: your timeline and ideal outcome, the key numbers, an indicative valuation range, and the best route — sell now, step down, or prepare for a higher-value exit.
