Business DescriptionAn exceptional opportunity to acquire a high-margin, systemized residential window cleaning business serving premier, high-income neighborhoods across Salt Lake County. Established in 2024, the business has scaled rapidly through an effective door-to-door (D2D) framework and high-return digital advertising, building a clean database of 384 registered clients. Unlike standard seasonal service providers, this asset features an upgraded $20,000 in contractual Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) with customer credit cards securely on file. Day-to-day cleaning operations are seamlessly handled by an elite, independent field team consisting of one full-time and one part-time technician. The business utilizes an automated, highly efficient Airtable workflow connected directly to Google Calendars to handle hands-off scheduling and dispatching. The current owner manages strictly administrative duties and marketing strategy, dedicating just 4 to 6 hours per week to company administration. Financial ExcellenceThe business is structurally lean and incredibly profitable, boasting world-class service margins: Gross Profit Margin: 84% Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) Margin: 76% Average Ticket Size: $282 in 2025 (a 10% year-over-year increase). Growth Runway & Value PropositionThe winter downtime historically reflected the current owner's personal choice to travel and ski rather than market limitations. With a flawless 90+ 5-Star Google Rating and a stable $20k ARR floor, an incoming owner has an immediate, de-risked launchpad to upsell the active customer base on high-margin property services. Immediate expansion pathways include interior window cleaning (which the technicians are already trained in), gutter cleaning, solar panel cleaning, and high-ticket Q4 holiday light installations. Reason for SaleThe business is being priced aggressively at $100,000 for an accelerated transition because the owner is entering commercial flight school. A professional broker valuation places the business value at over $150,000, handing the purchaser over $50,000 in immediate, built-in equity on Day 1. Low Owner Time Commitment: The owner's average weekly workload is 30 hours during its peak season (April-October).

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.
