Step 1 — Discovery Call A short, no-pressure conversation. No NDA required. We learn about your business, your goals, and your timeline. You learn how we're different from a broker.
Step 2 — NDA & Information Exchange You share what you're comfortable with — typically 3 years of P&L, revenue mix, team and fleet overview. You control what gets shared and when.
Step 3 — Buyer Match We match your business internally against our vetted buyer pool. You see 3–5 curated buyer profiles — never a public listing, never a flood of tire-kickers.
Step 4 — Direct Conversation You choose who to engage. We coordinate the introduction and support you through negotiation, LOI, due diligence, and close.
Step 5 — Close & Transition Deal funds. License transfer, fleet handoff, and technician retention are handled cleanly. You walk away with the deal you wanted — not the one a broker pushed you into.

$0 to the seller

No contracts, no obligations
Fully discreet under NDA
No. We don't list businesses publicly and we don't charge seller commissions. We're retained on the buyer side, which means our compensation comes from the buyer group — not from you.
A traditional broker lists your business publicly, takes 6–12% commission, and runs a wide auction process that exposes you to competitors, customers, and employees. We do the opposite — fully discreet, 3–5 vetted buyers, no listing agreement, no exclusivity, and zero cost to you.
Our sweet spot is home service operators doing $1M to $25M in annual revenue, but we work deals from $100K up to $10M+ in transaction value across the full trade spectrum.
Our average closing timeline is 45 days for sellers and 60 days for buyers from intake to ownership. Most deals close in 90 days or less.
Private equity platforms rolling up home service verticals, family offices, strategic operators expanding into new territories, and individual buyers with verified capital. Every buyer is pre-screened and capital-committed before we ever bring them to your business.
No. There is no public listing, no signage, no online posting. Information is shared only with 3–5 fully vetted buyers under NDA, and you control what gets released and when.
Initially, nothing. After NDA, we typically request 3 years of P&L, revenue mix (residential vs commercial, recurring vs one-time), team and fleet overview, and your service area. You control the pace.
That's fine. A lot of the operators we work with weren't actively for sale when we first connected. We're happy to keep the conversation open and check in down the road.
One conversation. No NDA required. No obligation. We'll walk you through our process, answer your questions, and give you an honest read on where your business stands in today's buyer market.
