📅 What to Watch: Late April 2026
As we close out April 2026, here's what savvy buyers are keeping an eye on:
Private Equity's Appetite for Restoration → The water damage and property restoration sector continues to see massive consolidation. Private equity firms are actively acquiring restoration companies, often paying premium multiples (sometimes up to 8x EBITDA for larger platforms). The $11.9M Restoration Firm featured this week is exactly the type of high-margin, recession-resistant asset that institutional buyers are targeting to build regional platforms.
AI-Enabled Service Businesses → Buyers are increasingly valuing service businesses that have successfully integrated AI and automation to improve margins and scalability. The Event Photography Studio in this issue is a prime example: by using AI for editing, CRM updates, and client communications, they've drastically reduced turnaround times and manual labor, creating a highly systemized operation where sales is the only owner-dependent function.
Specialty Trades and Infrastructure → With ongoing infrastructure spending and commercial development, specialty contractors (like the Concrete Solutions business featured today) are in high demand. Buyers are looking for firms with durable general contractor relationships, seasoned workforces, and the ability to manage complex, multi-phase projects.
SBA 504 Loans for Acquisitions → With interest rates stabilizing, the SBA 504 loan program is becoming an increasingly popular tool for business acquisitions that include commercial real estate or heavy equipment. The ability to secure long-term, fixed-rate financing with just 10% down makes deals significantly more accessible. Don't forget to reply "Slack" to join our community and chat with our SBA 504 advisor, Kevin Daniel!
