However, busy surgeries mean good business and dental practices are booming, with profits and salaries climbing year on year. This means buying a dental practice can make good economic sense, although for many buyers, the upfront costs may put a purchase out of reach. But not to worry. Dental practice finance can take the pain out of the transaction. Read on to find out how commercial mortgages, business loans and working capital finance can bridge the gap to help you buy the dental practice you need.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-19677199 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"19677199\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4e762d4c\" data-id=\"4e762d4c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52800274 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"52800274\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How to buy a dental practice<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-24f6bd5d elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"24f6bd5d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3077b585 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3077b585\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental practices are dynamic businesses, selling products and services that are in high demand.

Lenders will need to see the legal ownership and terms and conditions of the property before making a loan offer. Buying owned property may make it easier to secure financing, as leased premises are tied to agreements that have a finite term. Lenders may refuse to lend against leasehold property where there are too few years remaining on the lease. In both cases, independent valuation of the premises is essential, as this will affect your purchase offer, not just the loan you seek to buy the business. Some dental practices may have no ownership or long-term lease claim and are simply renting storefront space on short-term contract, as may be found with businesses located inside shopping malls.
