Acquire CPA practices and bookkeeping firms with recurring client engagements across BC. BizBuy.ca provides hands-on buyer-side consulting for accounting firms acquisitions throughout Kamloops and Metro Vancouver.
Accounting practices are one of the most reliable acquisition targets in Canada — sticky clients, recurring seasonal engagements, predictable cash flow, and intrinsically low capital requirements. The challenge is CPA designation transfer requirements and client retention through ownership change.
Kamloops is one of BC Interior's largest cities and a major industrial and service hub. Strong activity in trades, retail, healthcare, hospitality, and family services.
BC has thousands of retiring CPAs who built their practices over 20-30 years and have no formal succession plan. Many are sole practitioners with books worth $300K-$800K that never hit the open market. BizBuy.ca sources many of these off-market through succession-planning relationships.
