In this Episode, I present a layered approach to help anyone think about due diligence.  

Due diligence is a process that is typically used in business or legal contexts to evaluate and investigate a particular situation, opportunity, or risk.  

Many people think of due diligence as an exercise in finding what’s wrong with a deal so they can reject it.  They are searching for red flags.

Instead, think of due diligence as a process of evaluating whether a deal makes sense for you, assuming everything you’re told is true.  Next, work to identify, quantify and mitigate risks.  That should be the end product of a due diligence process.

Also, in this episode, I address some questions sent to me about the due diligence process.
