Whether you buy or sell, the tax risks of the company decide the price — before signing, not after.

• You are buying a company or a stake — and you want to know what you are really buying.
• The target has several jurisdictions, a history of restructurings or an aggressive tax position.
• You need arguments to negotiate the price and protection in the agreement — before signing, not after.
• You are selling, and you want the buyer’s review to find a company in order — not a list of reasons to lower the price.

What the House does

For a buyer, the House looks at the target through the eyes of the one who will answer for its past: we find the tax risks, value them in monetary terms and translate them into concrete levers — a price adjustment, warranties, indemnities, escrow. For a seller, the House runs the same review in advance, through the buyer’s eyes, and closes or explains what it finds, so the price is defended rather than discounted.

• Tax due diligence on the target across all its jurisdictions and periods.
• A risk map valuing each in monetary terms and by probability.
• Translation of risks into deal instruments: price, warranties, indemnities, escrow.
• An analysis of the acquisition structure: how to buy without inheriting others’ problems.
• Support for your negotiating position on tax matters.
• For a seller: a vendor review before the sale, a remediation plan, and a data room on tax ready for the buyer’s questions.

What you get: a tax due diligence report on the target across all jurisdictions · a risk map valuing each in monetary terms and by probability ·a list of agreement wording (warranties, indemnities, escrow) · a recommendation on the acquisition structure · for a seller, a vendor tax review and a remediation plan

What worries you — and the House’s answer

• “I’ll inherit a tax problem I never knew about.” — That is why risks are found before signing and closed off with warranties and indemnities.
• “The seller has hidden an aggressive position.” — DD tests the defensibility of the target’s positions rather than taking its word, and turns doubt into price.
• “I’ll overpay for a company carrying risk.” — Every risk is valued in monetary terms and becomes an argument in the price negotiation.
• “The buyer will use every gap to lower the price.” — On the sell side the gaps are found and closed first, so the buyer’s review meets answers, not openings.

Where this leads

You enter the deal knowing what you are buying: the target’s tax risks found, valued and either reflected in the price or closed off by protection in the agreement. The company’s past does not become your problem after signing. You pay for the asset, not for someone else’s unresolved matters. And if you are the seller, the buyer’s review meets a company in order, and the price you set is the price you keep.
