Cemetery Merger and Acquisition
Acquiring a cemetery is unlike buying any other business. Knowing the true fair market value is a competency that very few people have. We have valued more than 500 cemeteries, helped clients either buy or sell more than 25 cemeteries and have operated more than 15 cemeteries throughout North America.
Whether the cemetery is a for-profit or not for-profit, business entity makes a large difference in the approach and application to take in an acquisition or in representing a client for sale.
We can help someone know what the greatest probability of outcome will be before the owner exposes the business for sale. That cuts down uncertainty of staff and does not change the market environment between competing businesses.
Whether we are representing a buyer or a seller, our efforts focus on the value, the asset allocation, due diligence completion, as well as the tax and closing costs. Call us to get a sense of the scope of your needs, costs, timing and probability of success.
Combos
In some cases, an acquisition for your business means becoming a combination operator.
Combo operations, meaning owning a funeral home and a cemetery, are becoming increasingly more popular because business owners are realizing that many consumers are looking for the one place that can meet all of their needs.
By talking to us, we will help you conclude whether becoming a combo operator is right for you. Whether you are a funeral home owner looking to expand into the cemetery business, or a cemetery owner considering a venture into the funeral home business, we will explore every option with you, including acquisition or development, onsite or offsite, or maybe even a joint venture opportunity.

Perhaps the highest compliment one can pay to a funeral service expert is to say that you have succeeded in motivating us. The spark was your presentation; the fuel was your personal visit. We heard you and we are acting. Thank you sincerely.
