Hi all, I am actively searching for a business to purchase. Over the months I have organically built some strong relationships with business owners who are ready to sell and have asked me to help them make introductions to potential buyers. The below business is not a fit for my search, but wanted to post on here as it is a proprietary opportunity and a nice fit for a searcher looking in residential services in the Northeast. Please message me if interested in the below.

Business Sale

Profitable residential chimney & fireplace services business exploring exit options. The business performs non-discretionary repair services that must be completed for safety purposes (60% of revenue); routine cleaning and inspection services (20% of revenue); and installations of new fireplace units (20% of revenue).

The current owners are serial entrepreneurs and have grown this business to $2.4m of sales in just two years. They have assembled an outstanding team and implemented automated systems that are necessary to scale. They have built a market leading online presence with 360+ reviews on Google with a 4.8 rating. The owners have begun focusing more on maximizing profit and less on top line revenue growth, but a new owner / operator could further drive profitability while maintaining a steady growth rate. The current owners have accomplished their goal in building one of the top brands and teams in the area, while also eclipsing their initial goal of $2m of sales. They are now exploring a sale so they can focus on building their next business.
