DDSOff-market practice
Off-market practice: An off-market practice is a dental practice whose owner is open to selling but that is not publicly listed or advertised by a broker.
An off-market practice is a dental practice whose owner is open to selling but that is not publicly listed or advertised by a broker.
Off-market supply overlaps with pre-market practices but is not the same: off-market describes an owner who is open to selling, while pre-market describes practices showing transition signals. Neither implies intent without the owner’s own consent.
