1/ Fire Protection Services Business

📍 Location: N/A
💰 Asking Price: $3,500,000
💼 EBITDA: $850,000
📊 Revenue: $5,000,000
📅 Established: ~1965

💭 My 2 Cents: Fire protection is one of those industries where demand isn't optional. Building codes require sprinkler systems, fire alarms, and regular inspections, and that compliance-driven model creates a recurring revenue engine that keeps cash flowing regardless of the economy. This company has been at it for over 60 years, offering a full suite of design, installation, inspection, and 24/7 emergency services across commercial, industrial, and residential clients. A workforce of 27, including 18 field technicians operating under a union contract, tells me the operational infrastructure is real and not dependent on the owner picking up a wrench. I like that the recurring revenue from mandated inspections and maintenance gives you a nice floor to build on. That said, I'd want to understand the geographic concentration of their service territory, the mix between new installation and recurring inspection revenue, and how the union contract affects labor cost flexibility. As a plus, the seller is willing to offer financing and an extended transition.

2/ Electrical Contractor

📍 Location: Georgia
💰 Asking Price: $2,000,000
💼 EBITDA: $693,994
📊 Revenue: $2,566,646
📅 Established: 2011

💭 My 2 Cents: Electrical contracting in the greater Atlanta metro is a bet on one of the fastest-growing regions in the country, and this 15-year-old company has positioned itself smartly with a diversified mix of residential, commercial, and energy solutions work. The evolution from a home-based startup to a well-respected regional provider with $2.5M in revenue tells me the owner built real operational infrastructure along the way. The 27% net margin is well above average for an electrical contractor and points to disciplined job costing and efficient crew management. I'd want to understand the project backlog, how dependent the commercial pipeline is on specific GC relationships, and how much of the energy solutions work is repeat business versus one-off projects. At 2.9x, this feels like a fair deal for a trades business that's already proven it can grow, and metro Atlanta's building boom isn't slowing down anytime soon.

3/ Home & Kitchen E-Commerce Brand

📍 Location: Remote
💰 Asking Price: $1,600,000
💼 EBITDA: $418,615
📊 Revenue: $2,558,100
📅 Established: 1999

💭 My 2 Cents: You almost never see e-commerce brands that have been around for 27 years, and the fact that this one designs and distributes its own proprietary kitchen products tells me they're not just another reseller racing to the bottom on price. It's primarily an Amazon business at 88% of revenue, but they've already started diversifying into Walmart, Shopify, and even TV features, which tells me there's additional channel opportunity a new owner could push further. I like that the current owner runs this basically absentee with remote operations, making it a clean acquisition for someone who doesn't want to be tied to a warehouse. The big question for me is the new product development pipeline and who's actually driving that. If it's the owner, that's a risk you'd need to solve for post-close. The 27 years of brand equity and product reviews are the real assets here, and those aren't things you can just build from scratch overnight.

4/ Commercial Architectural Woodworking & Millwork

📍 Location: Missouri
💰 Asking Price: $2,100,000
💼 EBITDA: $576,488
📊 Revenue: $4,418,001
📅 Established: ~1976

💭 My 2 Cents: Nearly 50 years of operating history and recognition as the third-largest union woodworking operation in the state is a resume that can't be easily replicated. This firm specializes in high-end architectural millwork for hospitals, banks, and corporate offices, project types that demand precision and deep institutional knowledge. The business runs with minimal owner involvement, supported by an experienced management team and skilled union craftsmen. Revenue comes entirely through word-of-mouth and repeat business, with more bid opportunities arriving than current capacity allows. That backlog dynamic tells me there's immediate growth upside simply by adding capacity. I'd want to understand the project pipeline depth, how dependent key relationships are on specific personnel, and whether the 18,000+ square foot facility has room for expansion. All in all, the multiple is fair for a half-century-old operation where demand already exceeds supply.

5/ Farm Supply Store

📍 Location: New Mexico
💰 Asking Price: $2,300,000
💼 EBITDA: $597,507
📊 Revenue: $4,993,701
📅 Established: 1991

💭 My 2 Cents: Farm and ranch supply stores are the quiet workhorses of rural retail. This one has been serving its community for 35 years with a product mix covering animal feed, hardware, seasonal chicks, and garden supplies. Half the retail floor dedicated to feed tells me there's a steady, repeat-purchase core that keeps customers coming back on a regular cycle. This is also the kind of business that stays local by nature. Nobody's ordering 50-pound bags of livestock feed off Amazon, and rural customers want a store they can walk into, ask questions, and load up their truck. That makes it hard to disrupt from the outside. I like the semi-absentee ownership model, which means capable staff and established systems are already in place. I'd want to understand supplier concentration on the feed side, the split between retail and wholesale revenue, and whether there's a seasonal cash flow pattern tied to planting and harvest cycles. Ultimately, in a rural market like this, 35 years of trust is the moat.
