24d • General discussion
A semi-absentee landscaping + lawn care business with strong recurring contracts is available.
Owner works ~10–15 hrs/week.
Management team runs daily ops.
💰 Financial Highlights:
• Revenue (TTM): ~$6.3M
• Earnings (TTM): ~$1.55M
• Asking Price: ~$5.6M
• Multiple: ~3.6x
• Includes $3M+ in equipment • SBA-eligible
🌱 What Makes This a Strong Deal?
✅ ~2,000 active customers
✅ ~90% recurring revenue
✅ 75% commercial / 25% residential mix
✅ One-stop shop (lawn, landscaping, sprinklers, snow, more)
✅ Pricing in top 20% locally — still turning customers away
This is not a small “mow & go” operation.
💡 Growth Potential:
📌 Add more crews (currently waitlists + rejected demand)
📌 Expand to nearby cities
📌 Improve digital marketing (mostly referrals today)
📌 Push higher-margin services harder (sprinklers, landscaping)
Demand > capacity right now.
⚠️ Things to Watch:
• Seasonal business (busy Mar–Nov)
• Labor law change temporarily raised payroll in late 2025
• Needs clean underwriting on normalized payroll for 2026
None are deal breakers, but they matter.
🔧 Operational Upside:
• Better routing & scheduling tech
• KPI tracking by service line
• Convert more residential into annual contracts
• Professionalize reporting for scale or roll-up
Plenty of low-risk improvements.
🔥 Why This Is Interesting:
Landscaping + lawn care is a massive, boring, cash-flow industry.
Contracts, real assets, real people, real EBITDA.
Exactly the type of business many buyers say they want.
🏷️ Seller wants to focus on another business.
Team is staying.
Business is ready for a new owner.
