Established landscaping and grounds maintenance business with $936,000 of contracted recurring revenue.
Nine field employees run six staffed crews from a leased shop and secured yard. Trading continuously since 2019, serving residential and commercial customers across three contiguous Central Valley cities.
INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
• $936,000 contracted recurring revenue - roughly 76% of 2025 revenue under recurring maintenance agreements, and more than the entire operating cost base. Fixed costs are covered before any project work is written.
• Commercial-weighted recurring base - 54% commercial, 46% residential. Commercial contracts run annual terms and churn far less than residential mowing.
• Three straight years of earnings growth - Seller's Discretionary Earnings of $194,043, $246,919 and $312,555 for 2023, 2024 and 2025. 2026 year-to-date available under NDA.
• Gross margin expanded from 67.8% to 83.6% as the mix shifted toward recurring maintenance.
• Exclusive protected territory - no intra-brand competition.
• Not owner-dependent for field delivery - nine employees across six staffed crews.
• $283,590 of vehicles and equipment included, debt retired by seller at closing. Eight trucks, four trailers, commercial mowing fleet, 2021 track loader, trencher, sod cutter, aerator and compactor.
• Revenue capacity proven at $1,642,148 in 2024 on substantially the same asset base.


GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES
• $52,230 of equipment sits idle - a cleanup crew with dump trailer and an irrigation van, both fully equipped and unstaffed. Staffing them is a hiring decision, not a capital one, and cleanups are the main channel converting new customers to recurring maintenance.
• Advertising was cut roughly 90% from 2024 to 2025 and revenue still held above $1.2M.
• Fertilization and weed control, irrigation service and seasonal holiday lighting are already licensed, equipped and under-sold into the existing account base.
MARKET
Serving a county of roughly 558,000 residents and 176,500 households in a year-round growing climate with a long maintenance season. The industry is highly fragmented - more than 556,000 U.S. businesses, mostly small independents operating without brand, systems or back-office support.
TERMS
Asset sale including vehicles, equipment, customer list and records, phone numbers, and goodwill. Interest-bearing debt retired by seller at closing. Landscaping experience is not required - the system supplies the operating playbook, estimating methodology, centralized back office and ongoing coaching.
