What client say about Greg Tapper

Greg truly acts for the vendor

We found Greg fantastic to deal with!  Greg truly acts for the vendor and was not just interested in a deal, but a deal that was right for us.
We walked away from a signed deal; Greg supported us in that decision and helped us through this process. We ended up selling through Greg a year later. In an industry where agents are dealing with vendors and purchasers, we can say Greg had our best interests at heart

Leading Accountancy Practice in Eastern North Island

Sold $1,950,000

Highly Responsive and Open

I had a very positive experience working with Greg on the sale of my accounting practice. Throughout the process, he was highly responsive and open in discussing all aspects of the sale, providing clear and practical advice on what to expect from both sides. His patience during an extended settlement period was much appreciated, and I valued his commitment to finding the right buyer rather than just any buyer—ensuring a good fit for both parties. I would gladly recommend his services to anyone considering selling their business.

Frequently Asked Question

Will my staff or clients find out?

No.
Greg’s process is designed specifically to protect relationships and minimise disruption.
Information is released slowly, deliberately, and only under strict confidentiality.

Is my practice “too small” or “too specific”?

Most New Zealand accounting practices fall into the $500k–$3m fee range. This is precisely Greg’s core market. Whether you are a sole practitioner or a multi-partner firm, you will receive tailored advice based on your structure and goals.

What makes selling an accounting practice more complex than selling a typical business?

Accounting firms have unique value drivers — recurring revenue, client retention, compliance workloads, partner reliance, staff capability, and transition planning. These factors require profession-specific understanding. A misstep in timing, confidentiality, or buyer qualification can affect both value and continuity. That’s why a specialist approach matters.

What does your process look like, and how hands-on are you?

I personally manage the entire sale process — from appraisal and preparation through to buyer screening, negotiation, and due diligence. Every firm is thoroughly appraised, positioned with a clear value story, and prepared with a high-quality Information Memorandum that gives buyers confidence. Your practice is introduced only to qualified, serious buyers from my trusted network — primarily accountants, their clients, and finance professionals — built through years of direct conversations and referrals. Throughout the sale, I run a calm, controlled, and confidential process designed to protect value, manage risk, and ensure you achieve a strategic, well-managed outcome, not just the first offer available.
