20+ Industries. One Brokerage Built for Lower-Middle-Market Sellers.
We sell businesses across trades, home services, professional services, staffing, and specialty verticals. Every industry has its own buyer pool, multiple range, and diligence-process quirks — the guides below cover the dynamics that actually move valuation in each one.
Each industry page covers: current EBITDA multiple ranges, who the active buyers are (strategic vs. PE platform vs. tuck-in), the levers that drive valuation up or down in that category, recent transaction activity, and the FAQs first-time sellers in that industry ask us most often. Sources are cited on every page.
Trades
Mechanical, electrical, and skilled-trade contractors. These are the hottest categories in lower-middle-market M&A right now — PE platforms are paying record multiples for businesses with recurring revenue, technician retention, and commercial mix.
Home & Property Services
Service businesses with recurring contracts, route density, and commercial concentration. PE consolidators have been aggressive across this category for the last 3 years.
Professional & Business Services
Knowledge-based and B2B service businesses. EBITDA multiples vary dramatically by retention, specialization, and recurring-revenue mix.
Specialty & Staffing
Vertical and labor-driven businesses. Niche focus and contract concentration significantly affect valuation.
