The Midlands boasts one of the hottest regional markets for dental practices in the UK. The West Midlands in particular is cited by many buyers as their number one location when seeking to expand their portfolios.

However, this also means that opportunities to acquire NHS practices in the area are few and far between. It therefore comes as no surprise that multiple offers are received on most sales resulting in premium prices being achieved.

For this reason, an increasing amount of buyers are expanding their search into other Midland areas to seek better value and face less competition. Currently, Christie & Co stock value stands at £11 million in the Midlands alone, so it is still a vibrant marketplace despite short supply in some areas.

Independent multiple operators and associate/first time buyers, often supported by family funds, are driving the vast majority of interest in the sector. Bank funding is readily available to buyers and competition amongst the banks very strong, so now is a good time to investigate your options, whether you are looking at selling or purchasing, to help you achieve the best deal.
