Karl Frye : Dentistry Uncensored w/ Howard Farran #1719

In this episode, Howard Farran sits down with Karl Frye, Principal Broker and owner of Frye Practice Sales, a Scottsdale-based practice and commercial real estate brokerage, and current President of the National Association of Practice Brokers. Before founding his firm in 2015, Karl spent more than a decade in commercial banking serving the M&A needs of doctors — financing the startups, growth, sales, and refinances of dental practices nationwide. That credit background gives him a distinctive, outcome-focused perspective on what's actually realistic in today's healthcare acquisition market. The conversation tackles the questions on every practice owner's mind: whether the private-practice buyer is truly a thing of the past (Karl says not so fast), and whether dentists should simply say "no" to the DSO (his answer is more nuanced than you'd expect). Howard and Karl walk through how sellers should navigate a shifting market, what buyers should be doing right now, and a recap of where the lending market stands. They close on a decision many selling dentists overlook — whether to sell the commercial real estate along with the practice or hold onto the building and collect rent.   Episode #1719 : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran, Howard sits down with Karl Frye — Principal Broker and owner of Frye Practice Sales and current President of the National Association of Practice Brokers — for a straight-talking look at the dental transitions market. With 12+ years financing healthcare M&A before becoming a broker, Karl brings rare credit-side insight. Is the private practice buyer a thing of the past? Should you say no to the DSO? And what should you do with your building when you sell? 🎧 Essential listening for any dentist thinking about buying, selling, or planning an exit. #DentistryUncensored #DentalTransitions #PracticeSales #DentalBusiness #DSO #PracticeOwnership
