I'm considering building or buying in the physical therapy space. I have a rock-star PT who is excited to partner with me. Would love to speak with anyone who can help me learn what the financial profile can look like (Revenue and EBITDA) for a well-run practice at full capacity. Not to mention average reimbursement rates and cash pay rates.

Just from looking around on different listings for practices for sale, the topline and bottomline performance is all over the map. Thanks in advance!

HI Clint, if your PT friend is going to be an active working partner and will be on the loan and guarantee the loan,. you'll be fine. If your PT friend is just a passive investor, you are going to have a hard time with lending if you are considering SBA. The lenders are really coming down hard on "medical" deals without the sponsor having the correct license or experience themselves. That said, there are still a couple lenders that will look the other way. Let me know if you need help, thanks

Hey Clint, I'm a physical therapist, PT practice owner, and host a podcast for PT practice owners (to get off-market deal flow) that covers all of those topics you mentioned: EBITDA, valuations, growth opportunities, M&A activity, etc. redacted@thedavekittleshow
