Custom Home Builder | $13M Backlog I Management Team in Place
Business Description
Long-established custom home builder in one of Central Florida's highest-growth markets, in business over 30 years.
The company builds fixed-price custom homes on land the customer already owns. No spec homes, no land bank, no inventory risk. Every home is under contract before construction begins.
Currently holding approximately $13.4 million in contracted backlog across 16 homes, with certificate of occupancy dates scheduled into 2027.
Key features:
-Customer deposits fund construction. The business runs on negative working capital and is largely self-funding as it grows.
-No debt on the balance sheet.
-In-house design center and design team, allowing customers to design from scratch or modify a proven plan. Unusual at this size and a meaningful competitive advantage.
-Average home price of roughly $740,000.
-All demand comes from referral and reputation. No sales team, no marketing budget, no paid lead generation.
- Gross margins have improved from 17% to over 30% in recent years after the owner narrowed the business to custom homes.
Management stays. A tenured CFO and a construction operations lead run the business day to day and both intend to remain. The owner is largely absentee and involved only in major financial decisions.
Serious inquiries only. A signed confidentiality agreement and buyer profile are required before any detailed information is released.
Growth & Expansion
Growth has been capped by owner preference, not by market. There is no sales or business development function, the service radius has been held to a tight area around the office, and several profitable adjacent lines were set aside rather than sold. A buyer with a growth plan has real room to work with, and the management team has expressed a clear interest in scaling.
Support & Training
Owner is flexible on transition and willing to stay on part time to ensure continuity. CFO and operations lead expected to remain.
Financing
Seller open to discussing structure with a qualified buyer.
