#67 - Corporate Relocation Services Company

📍 Location: Dartmouth, MA and Dallas, TX 🏷️ Asking Price: $3,000,000 🆔 Business ID: Confidential 💰 Cash Flow: $2,000,000+ (owner-reported) 📈 Gross Revenue: $5,000,000 📊 Business Type: High-Value Corporate Relocation Services 🏠 Ownership: Owner Operated 🔥 Roughly 1.5x Owner-Reported Profit! | Two-Market Footprint! | Owner Is 84 and Retiring!

Key Highlights:
• A $3M asking price against $2M+ in owner-reported profit is roughly 1.5x. If diligence confirms even a meaningful portion of that number, this is one of the most aggressively priced deals we have ever listed.

• High-value relocation packages for companies and their employees, a service corporations buy on relationships and reliability rather than on price.

• Operations in both the Northeast and Texas give a buyer two established metros to grow from.

• The owner is 84 and retiring on a 3-6 month timeline, with up-to-date financials ready for review.

🚀 Growth Opportunities:
• A younger operator with sales energy can expand the corporate client roster; the constraint here is the owner's stage of life, not the market.

• Open to discussing seller financing, which gives a qualified buyer room to structure creatively.

📌 Summary:
Retirement-driven exits at low multiples are exactly what buyers say they are looking for. This is one, in plain sight. Verify the profit figure in diligence and move quickly if it holds.

#59 - Two-Location BJJ Academy

📍 Location: Sunnyvale and Milpitas, CA 🏷️ Asking Price: $1,500,000 🆔 Business ID: Confidential 💰 Cash Flow: $275,000 (EBITDA) 📈 Gross Revenue: $720,000 📊 Business Type: Membership-Based Martial Arts / Fitness 🏠 Ownership: Owner Operated 🔥 38% EBITDA Margin! | Two Silicon Valley Locations! | Recurring Membership Revenue!

Key Highlights:
• Brazilian jiu-jitsu academies run on monthly memberships, the same subscription economics buyers pay premiums for in software.

• Sunnyvale and Milpitas sit in one of the highest-income membership markets in the country.

• Up-to-date financials are ready and the owner is working a realistic 6-12 month timeline.

🚀 Growth Opportunities:

• Seller is open to discussing financing structure.

📌 Summary:
A profitable, membership-driven fitness business in a market that can absorb price increases. For an operator who loves the sport, this is a lifestyle acquisition that actually cash flows.

• The owner has already said yes to seller financing, before negotiation even started.

📊 Insight of the Week: The Intake Is Accelerating

It took us about a month to collect the 33 direct-from-owner listings we published in Issue #221. The 27 listings in this issue arrived in 13 days.

The retirement wave is not slowing down, it is compounding. Of these 27 sellers, more than two-thirds cite retirement, age, or health, and at least eight said yes to seller financing before anyone asked.

When supply accelerates like this, prepared buyers, the ones with financing lined up and a defined buy box, get first pick. If that is not you yet, that is exactly what we do. Reply and we will help you get ready.
