How Much Is Your Cleaners Business Worth?

If you own a cleaners business, you might be wondering, “how much is my business worth?”

With season in the rearview mirror, I thought this would be a good time of year to update you on cleaners business sales throughout Florida and give you some data regarding sales and pricing. Here are some numbers for you to ponder:

  • 14 = the number of cleaners businesses sold year to date by Business Brokers of Florida Association members.
  • $102,464 = the average sale price of the sold cleaners business.
  • $61,637 = the average owner benefit generated in each sold cleaners business.
  • 1.866 = the owner benefit multiple (sales price divided by owner benefit) of the 14 sold cleaners businesses.
  • 0.773% = the average percentage down of the 14 sold cleaners businesses.

    What does this mean?

    Cleaners businesses are in high demand, in spite of a more conservative and cash strapped buying clientele, and down payments have been 77% of the sales price. If you have been contemplating selling your cleaners business, now is a great time! Please contact me for a free, no obligation discussion.
