Owners have a tendency to try to take the least expensive way through a process. One of the areas you don’t want to be cheap is in the way that you are monitoring what your business is doing and the way that we are looking at things for you when we get involved in helping you sell your offices, we have to have good books. We have to have bank accounts that make sense. We have to have profit and loss statements every year at a bare minimum. We have to have, if you have multiple offices, we have to have those financials separate. Each office has to be separate and if they are not separate now, start separating them tomorrow, so that when you do decide to sell, you can come to me and say Greg, “I have an office in Chino Hills and I have an office in Irvine, here are my sets of books for each office; independent bank statements; independent PNLs”. I don't care at the end of the year what we give to the IRS; we have to put it all under one form, but I need to be able to split it out. The problem comes that if you can't split it out or you have got everything melded together and then you go to sell one of your places, nobody can figure out what the place really makes; so, everything stops. The bank stops, the buyer doesn't want to buy, and you are sitting chairside trying to split things out and we tell you okay, if you split it out for another year or two, come back and talk to us.
