Further details about any practices for sale listed with us will be provided as long as you are registered as a member. If you’d like to find out more about becoming a member, please contact us on 0330 088 1156.

Once you’re registered, we’ll provide you with the detailed practice information your need or arrange an appointment for you to visit the practice in question.

We’ll also point you in the direction of FTA Finance, leading independent, specialist healthcare funding broker, so you can discuss funding options should you wish to go ahead and make an offer for the practice. FTA Finance offer a free financial pre-assessment as part of their service so you can gauge the level of borrowing you could arrange. They are also experts in finding the best loan deals in the market, and in some cases, 100% lending may also be possible in the right circumstances.

I have had excellent dealings with Frank Taylor and the director Andy Acton. He’s always open to giving advice about how to optimise my practice for future sale.This is where I will be coming when the time comes to sell my practice and in the meantime for my next practice purchase

I stumbled across Andy through a colleague suggesting he would be a great person to answer some of my questions on practice ownership. After answering my first 2 questions, he then arranged a zoom call on the same day and gave me great advice. He booked me in for 30 mins but gave me an hour of his time for no personal gain whatsoever! Absolute fountain of knowledge, definitely a go to within the industry!!!

I asked to setup a one-to-one call with Andy Acton following a Clubhouse chat I was listening to. He was prompt to get that arranged and the conversation we had was incredibly valuable to me as someone in the market to buy a dental practice. He was able to answer all my questions in detail and was very personable. I would recommend anyone looking to purchase a dental practice to get in touch with him.

Frank Taylor & Associates helped me purchase my first dental practice. I must say that Andy Acton and the entire team are incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and very professional!They offer a first class service and I would not recommend anyone else to buy or sell a dental practice or help broker a practice purchase. They offer a number of services linked to wealth management, media support and legal support.Frank Taylor have been involved within the dental industry for over 20 years. They are experts! They want to form relationships with their clients and I could not speak highly enough of them.

I reached out to Andy via social media. He responded very quickly and made considerable effort to sort out an initial consult with me which fitted around my unusual schedule. During the meeting he was very empathetic, knowledgeable and understanding of my situation and my business aspirations. He offered great advice and reassurance for how to navigate the daunting next step in my career.

This highly professional and experienced organisation were instrumental in making the sale of my practice a success. Of all the valuations I had done they were the ones that correctly assessed and subsequently delivered the best return for my business.During each step there was a personal contact guiding me through the often arduous and convoluted process of selling a practice. Their knowledge of the dental sector was invaluable in getting the process to completion. There were frequent updates and support.which continued well past the phase of finding a buyer and negotiating a price.As one of the largest dental estate agents I felt that my practice was marketed as widely as possible and it was a great comfort to know that I was selling through such a well respected agency.

I found Frank Taylor Associates to be very knowledgeable and helpful, throughout the process of selling my dental practice. There was a lot of work to do to get through the journey, but FTA were always quickly available over the phone and gave me first class support. I would recommend their services to anyone else who is selling their practice.
