In the auto dealership space, traditional due diligence is about reviewing the books, assessing the local market attributes, following IRS Revenue Ruling 59-60, using the “comps” in the local market as well as reviewing the fun and unique OEM franchise requirements of a dealership where factory site control, image compliance or exclusivity can have material impacts in property valuation, financing flexibility, and exit...
