Show Notes

Due diligence done right is about building relationships while building the deal. In Episode 2 of Do Diligence Confidently: Navigating the Due Diligence Process to a Deal, Taylor Hall and Tim Hanson explain to David Cover and Sarah George-Waterfield the purpose of diligence, why Permanent Equity approaches it with a posture of being helpful, and why problems found in diligence don’t have to be deal killers.
