30 years in business, and this Phoenix commercial catering company runs about 600 corporate, wedding and social events a year without its owners in the kitchen. 61 W-2 employees, a manager over every department, a salaried executive chef and executive sous chef running production, and a bookkeeper handling payroll and payables. Both owners work part time by choice and spend their hours on oversight, not production. The company holds preferred caterer contracts at some of Arizona's best known attractions, museums and event venues, positions that took decades to earn and that a competitor cannot buy its way into. Events are already contracted for the balance of 2026 and well into 2027. Production runs out of one of the largest and best equipped commercial catering kitchens in Arizona, purpose built by the sellers and available to purchase with the business (for an additional $3.3M) or lease at a market rate with an option to buy. The sellers are retiring after 30 years. SBA lenders already familiar with this deal are available for qualified buyers.

Established healthcare recruiting firm with strong margins, proprietary database, and significant growth potential. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly profitable, home-based healthcare recruiting firm specializing in the placement of physicians, nurse practitioners (NPs), and physician assistants (PAs). Founded in 2007, the business has built a strong reputation and long-standing relationships with healthcare systems and private practices across Arizona and California. The company operates with minimal overhead, no employees, and generates strong discretionary earnings. The business includes a valuable proprietary database of approximately 73,000 candidates and over 2,000 client contacts, providing a significant competitive advantage and barrier to entry. The current owner works approximately 30 hours per week and maintains approximately 60 active agreements, with 10 active clients and 20–25 open positions at any given time. There is substantial opportunity to grow the business by expanding into additional geographic markets, increasing owner involvement, hiring additional recruiters, and targeting larger healthcare systems with multi-state operations. This opportunity is ideal for an independent recruiter or staffing firm seeking entry or expansion in the healthcare recruitment sector. The owner is selling due to retirement and is willing to provide transition support. Sales revenue and Cash Flow (SDE) shown is for 2025. Business is listed by HUB AZ Brokers (ADRE #LC688931000), an affiliate of Sunbelt Business Brokers in the State of Arizona.

Remotely operated Phoenix-based media company serving residential listings. The two owners put in about 25 hours a MONTH between them. A full-time Operations Manager runs the daily business, including scheduling, client communication, dispatching photographers, managing the editing vendors, checking quality, and getting media delivered the next morning. Photographers are contractors paid per shoot and editing is outsourced, so costs move with volume instead of sitting on payroll. The owners wrote SOPs for the whole process, from camera settings through delivery, and trained the team on them. Neither owner is a photographer. Revenue is up 93% over the same period last year, orders are up 59%, and the average order is up 21%. The company has already booked more this year than it did in all of 2025. It works with a small fraction of the agents in the Phoenix metro, has never run paid advertising, and the current team has room to take on more volume without needing to hire. For a buyer, the hard part is already done. The client base, the trained team, the vendor relationships, and the systems are in place and running, and that is what takes years to build. What is left is growth, and a new owner can put their time there from day one.

Established East Valley Arizona landscape maintenance company with 20+ years of operating history and approximately 100 recurring commercial and residential maintenance accounts under contract. The owners do not perform field work. A 5-person crew organized into two teams handles all service delivery. The owners run the business in part-time hours from a home office and brief equipment yard check-ins, so a new owner steps into a working operation rather than a labor seat. The business income is weighted toward commercial accounts, which account for two-thirds of the recurring revenue (medical and dental clinics, salons, animal care campuses, churches, light industrial, and corporate offices) and residential accounts across the East Valley, which account for the remaining one-third. 65% seller financing available for qualified buyers.

Cofounder & CEO
Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating service business acquisitions.
A pest-control, cleaning, or landscaping firm with recurring agreements is worth far more than one living on one-off jobs; get the contracted share and the renewal rate.
A few large accounts can carry — and walk with — the business; review the top customers, contract lengths, and cancellation terms.
In many service businesses the owner is the salesperson and the trusted contact; understand who holds the customers and the transition plan.
These are labor-heavy; understand staffing, turnover, wage pressure, and whether key crews stay.
Pest control, security, legal, and waste businesses carry licenses and obligations that may be tied to the owner — and some, like dry cleaners, carry environmental exposure.
Low-capital service businesses are easy to dress up; scrutinize owner add-backs, vehicle and equipment condition, and whether the margins hold.
