Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to licences when a construction business is sold?

Licences are often held by an individual or a nominated supervisor rather than the business itself, so a buyer may need their own licence or a licensed nominee. Check the requirements early with the relevant licensing body.

Is equipment included in the price?

Plant and equipment are usually included, but any finance owing on them needs to be paid out or transferred. Your broker will confirm what’s included in each listing.
