Columbia, SC Metro | Profitable Home Care Franchise | $2.06M Revenue
Business Description
10 Yrs Established | 2 Territories | 90% Private Pay
This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a scaled, cash-flowing, non-medical in-home personal care franchise in one of the Southeast’s most desirable metro markets. Operating under a nationally recognized home care franchise brand, the business holds two large, protected territories under a single office and has been in continuous operation for over ten years.
Services include homemaking and assistance with activities of daily living — bathing, dressing, and personal care support — primarily for seniors and adults 18 and older.
AN EXTRAORDINARY TERRITORY — RARELY AVAILABLE AT THIS SCALE: The two combined territories encompass a total population of nearly 593,000 residents and over 95,800 individuals age 65 or older — more than 3x the typical new franchise territory benchmark of 30,000 seniors. Average household incomes across both territories exceed $103,000, with multiple communities well above $130,000 — a direct reflection of the affluent, private-pay client base this business already serves. A buyer is not just purchasing current cash flow — they are purchasing a dominant market position in a high-income, high-growth region.
TERRITORY GROWTH OUTLOOK — A MARKET ACCELERATING IN YOUR FAVOR: The macro tailwinds behind this business are as strong as any in the small business acquisition market. South Carolina is the fastest-growing state in the nation, confirmed by the U.S. Census Bureau for 2025, adding nearly 80,000 residents in a single year, driven overwhelmingly by domestic in-migration. Richland and Lexington counties — the two counties at the core of these territories — rank among the top 10 growth counties in the state, with the two counties projected to add nearly 67,000 more residents by 2042. Critically, much of this migration is retirement-driven, meaning the incoming population skews directly toward the prime home care demographic. South Carolina’s own Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office projects that the state’s 65+ population will surpass its 0–17 population by 2027 — a demographic crossover signaling accelerating demand for senior services for decades ahead. Nationally, the private pay home care market is projected to grow at approximately 8% annually through 2030. A buyer acquiring this business today is purchasing a market position where the customer base is growing by migration, aging, and demographic momentum simultaneously.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE: The business generated $1.9 million in revenue for full-year 2024, with TTM revenue through March 2026 reaching approximately $2.06 million, reflecting a strong and accelerating trajectory. Gross profit margins have ranged from 34% to 43% across recent periods. Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) are approximately $280,565 on a weighted TTM basis. The $1.1 million asking price reflects a market-supported multiple commensurate with the financial trajectory and the premium quality of the territory asset.
PAYER MIX & CASH FLOW QUALITY: Approximately 90–95% of revenues are private pay — a direct reflection of the affluent, high-income territory demographics. Critically, the overwhelming majority of private pay clients are billed and collected via ACH on a weekly billing cycle. This means cash is collected rapidly and predictably, with virtually no meaningful accounts receivable aging.
RECOGNITION: The company has received multiple national Provider of Choice awards from Activated Insights (the home care industry’s leading research and benchmarking organization), including recognition in 2024 and 2025 — an award earned by fewer than the top tier of home care providers nationally based on independently verified client and caregiver satisfaction surveys. Complementing these industry accolades, the company maintains a 4.9-star rating across 23 Google reviews, with clients and families consistently citing compassionate caregivers, responsive management, and the personal commitment of ownership to service quality.
