Looking to get into starting my own private equity firm; starting with one acquisition and building to a minimum of 4 within 5 years.

Want to build a trustworthy team/network and have gaps on the legal and accounting side. Can any of you recommend solid lawyers, accountants, and/or consultants that specialize in SMB Acquisition?

On the accounting/consulting side, looking for help with financial due diligence and getting thorough (and reasonably priced) quality of earnings done.

If you’re in healthcare, I highly recommend using VMG Health for your QoE. It’s a great company with a lot of smart people, and they won’t charge you an arm and a leg

Where are you located and what industries are you targeting? Also, are you planning to form limited partnership funds or are you just going to call capital without having it formally committed (eg, like friends and family and trusted investment partners)?

As of right now, we're location/industry agnostic. We're looking all over the country but do have a slight preference for either Illinois, California, or Florida. We're a team of 4 who have pooled our resources together. Not looking for outside investment just yet.

Haven’t seen anything particularly better at VMG vs other very small boutiques. You would just be outsourcing services again.

What exactly is the business model you are hoping for ?

Need to have a differentiator in terms of services or price.

As I got to the interview room there was a large executive chair facing away from me. The chair turned and on top was a mirror. When looking in the mirror I could see the cat. I am the cat.
