I've decided to leave the trade after 11 years - life's to short to be doing things/living places that you don't enjoy. I've been advertising my round for a year or so but still haven't sold it!
My main issue is that I want to relocate, maybe do this part time elsewhere while I build up a new business. In the New Year I want to quit the physical work, after all I'm not getting any younger!
I'm talking to a couple of guys at the minute, but if I don't sell to either of them, I have options of employing someone, leasing the work, or employing/contracting with an option to buy after a period. Just wondering what people's thoughts are if they were in the same situation?
Ideally, employing someone while I live away from here could be good, but I guess not feasible unless I was lucky enough to find a great employee first time. Anyone ever employed someone with an option to buy as an incentive to work hard and stick with it?
