Businesses our buyers are looking to acquire

We have serious buyers actively looking for businesses just like these.

If you know a business owner who might be open to selling - whether now or in the future - connect them with us! They could be sitting on a great opportunity.

• A profitable, community-focused business within an hour of Indianapolis, $750K–$2M in EBITDA and 10+ years of stable operations. They are industry-agnostic (services, manufacturing, construction, etc.) and value strong leadership and long-term legacy.

• A reliable essential home services business located in Pinellas County, FL, generating at least $100K/year in cash flow, with management in place for a smooth ownership transition.

• A service-based business (e.g., HVAC, healthcare services) with $750K–$1.25M in EBITDA, ideally located in the DFW or Phoenix Metro areas, though they are also open to remote operations or businesses in Austin, Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland-Akron, or Nashville.

• A residential trades business (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical, remodeling) generating $2M–$4M in revenue and serving the luxury market. They are focused on acquiring a high-end, service-oriented company with strong brand reputation and clientele in the premium residential space.

• We had one buyer tell us they're looking for any business where “cash flows like a king.” 👑

  • No industry preference, no specific location - just a strong, profitable business with steady cash flow and the kind of margins that would make royalty proud!
