Hi everyone — I’m a self-funded searcher looking to acquire a profitable, real-estate-backed small business that’s SBA 7(a) or 504 eligible. I focus on light manufacturing, fabrication, and essential local services.
Areas of particular interest include:
- Cut & sew, screen printing, and embroidery operations
- Door, millwork, or kitchen cabinet manufacturers
- Childcare/daycare centers with property included
- Other service-based businesses with tangible assets and consistent cash flow
Ideal Profile:
- SDE: $350K–$800K
- Real estate included or available for purchase
- Stable operations, not distressed or turnaround
- Located in the Northeast, Chicago area, or other liberal/purple regions
- Seller financing and creative structures welcome
I’m interested in working directly with owners who value continuity and care about the long-term success of their business. If you have something that fits—or close to it—I’d love to connect
