Overview
Conveyancing businesses typically trade at 2.5×–5× EBITDA. Panel membership with mortgage lenders and estate agents, high-volume transactional capability, and technology investment in case management support valuations. Remortgage and new build pipelines provide some revenue diversification. Housing transaction volume cyclicality and PI insurance premium inflation are the primary risk factors for buyers.
