After being told by two other national brokerage firms that my practice was a "No-Low Practice", Praxis looked at the same financials and three months later my practice has now been sold for more than one year's gross. Praxis was not only professional and diligent but also personal and down to earth. They not only looked at my financial numbers but also asked questions and were able to recapitalize my practice numbers. This in turn increased the value of my practice which others were not willing or able to do.

Praxis listened to my objectives, targeted the right buyers and advised me on how to make my practice more attractive to those buyers. We received multiple offers and sold my practice for over 120% of revenue. The brokerage fee was the lowest in the industry and included the appraisal and the contract. Praxis is a company that I would recommend to my colleagues and a comprehensive service that more than pays for itself. They were not only knowledgeable and attentive but also communicative and accessible.
