How Much Is Your Florida Cleaning Related Business Worth?

With season end approaching, I thought this would be a good time to update you on cleaning related business sales throughout Florida and give you some data regarding sales and pricing. Here are some numbers for you to ponder:

17 = the number of cleaning related businesses sold in the last twelve months by the Business Broker of Florida Association members.

$658,530 = the average revenue of the 17 sold cleaning related businesses.

$338,318 = the average sold price of the 17 sold cleaning related businesses.

$154,989= the average owner benefit generated in each sold cleaning related business.

0.514 = the revenue multiple (sold price divided by revenue) of the 17 sold cleaning related businesses.

2.183 = the owner benefit multiple (sold price divided by owner benefit) of the 17 sold cleaning related businesses.

85% = the average percentage down payment of the 17 sold cleaning related businesses.

300 = the average number of days on the market of the 17 sold cleaning related businesses.

What does this mean?

Cleaning related businesses are in demand. And, in spite of a more conservative and cash strapped buying clientele, they are still paying near historical multiples with a percent down not realized in many other industries.
