How BAA Helps
Home Services
Owners Sell
BAA handles valuation, buyer outreach, and deal structuring for home services business owners. We identify whether your buyer is an owner-operator using SBA financing or a private equity platform rolling up in your trade, position your business accordingly, and run a confidential process so your staff, customers, and vendors stay in the dark until the deal is done.

Here's where we answer the most common questions about
Home Services
How is a home services business valued?
Most home services businesses are valued on a multiple of Sellers Discretionary Earnings (SDE) or EBITDA, typically in the 2.0x to 4.0x range. Recurring service contracts, customer concentration, employee retention, and route density all affect where you land within that range.
Can I sell if the business depends heavily on me?
Yes, but buyers will want to see documented systems and a team that can operate without you. We help you prepare the business so it is transferable and commands a stronger multiple.
Will my employees and customers find out the business is for sale?
Not if we run the process correctly. BAA uses NDAs, blind teasers, and staged disclosure to keep the sale confidential until you are ready to bring key people into the conversation.
How long does it take to sell a home services business?
Most deals close in 4 to 9 months. Recurring contracts, clean financials, and a realistic asking price are the biggest factors in compressing that timeline.
Do I need to stay on after the sale?
Most buyers require a transition period of 30 to 90 days to ensure customer and staff continuity. We negotiate these terms on your behalf to protect your time and your payout.
