Learn how to transform your business into a valuable asset with strategic advice from Kunal Topiwala of SME Financial — from owner dependency and documentation to scalable systems and structured goals, discover what it takes to reduce stress, increase value, and build a business that works for you.
In this episode of the Trends Property Insight Series, we sit down with Kunal Topiwala, a Certified Value Builder Advisor at SME Financial, to unpack how small business owners, particularly in trades, construction, and property services, can transform their businesses from day-to-day jobs into scalable, valuable assets.
Kunal shares practical strategies drawn from the Value Builder System, a proven framework used globally to help business owners reduce stress, improve performance, and increase long-term value. He explains why so many owner-led businesses become unintentionally dependent on their founder, and how to shift from being essential to being optional, without losing control. From documenting processes and setting structured goals to breaking emotional ties that limit growth, Kunal’s advice is grounded in real experience and focused on giving owners more freedom and choice.
You’ll learn how value isn’t just about profit, but about systems, people, and planning. Whether you want to sell, scale, or simply stress less, this conversation will help you think differently about what your business is truly worth and how to build something that works for you, not the other way around.
