Thinking about the future of your care home?

Selling a care home is one of the biggest decisions an owner will ever make. It is rarely a sudden choice. For most owners, it starts quietly with a thought about the future.

Hearing from someone who has already been through the process can bring clarity and reassurance.

A real care home sale experience

Rachael Hind recently completed the sale of two nursing homes in South Manchester. She was introduced to care home sales specialist Mike Hatton through her long standing relationship with Quality Care Group.

The experience was described as calm, professional and expertly managed from start to finish.

Mike’s deep knowledge of the care home market and proactive approach helped navigate complexity with confidence. What could have been a stressful period felt controlled and well supported.

No upfront fees and no pressure to sell

One of the most important aspects of this experience was the absence of pressure. There were no upfront fees. There was no obligation to proceed.

This allowed the focus to remain on understanding options rather than forcing a decision.

Why early conversations matter

Crucially, the work began well before the sale itself. Support was provided pre sale using practical tactics to strengthen performance and improve EBITDA ahead of going to market.

Early conversations allowed time for improvement. They also created space for better planning and stronger outcomes when the time felt right.

Many care home owners wait until a sale feels urgent. That urgency can limit options and reduce value. Starting earlier can change that picture entirely.

A supportive approach to care home sales

Through Quality Care Group, care home owners are introduced to trusted sector specialists who understand the realities of running a care business.

The focus is not on rushing a sale. It is on providing guidance, clarity and support throughout the journey.

Start the conversation

If the future of your care home is on your mind, even quietly, now may be the right time to start the conversation.

You do not need to have a plan. You only need to take the first step.
