This is a rare opportunity to acquire an established, licensed pool service business operating under a nationally recognized brand in the Sarasota, Florida market. The business runs on a foundation of recurring weekly residential maintenance contracts — predictable, low-churn revenue that provides immediate cash flow stability from day one of ownership.
The business is operationally clean. Routes are organized, systems are in place, and the franchisor provides the software, brand infrastructure, and operational framework that independent operators spend years trying to build. The incoming owner benefits from an established customer base, a recognized brand, and a support structure that removes much of the guesswork typically associated with small business ownership.
Growth is already in motion. Three commercial service contracts are signed and commencing May 2026, adding approximately $6,500 per month in new recurring revenue plus an estimated $30,000 in associated one-time project work. The buyer does not need to build the pipeline — it is already there.
The territory comes with a fully wrapped, fully stocked service truck with a functional Riptide system, ready to run routes immediately upon closing. No buildout, no setup, no lag time.
The franchisor provides formal onboarding and training to the incoming franchisee as part of the transfer process, along with ongoing field support, proprietary software systems, and brand standards guidance. The seller will also provide a hands-on transition period covering route familiarization, customer relationships, and day-to-day operational handoff. The buyer is supported from multiple directions through and after closing.
Sarasota is one of the strongest pool service markets in the country. Year-round demand, high homeowner density, an affluent residential base, and a growing commercial sector create durable, compounding revenue opportunity. The territory operates within an exclusive geographic boundary — no competing franchisee from the same brand can operate within the territory.
This listing is for the Sarasota territory as a standalone acquisition and is well suited for an owner-operator or an existing pool or home services professional expanding into a new market. For buyers seeking a fully absentee-owned operation, the seller's adjacent East Manatee County territory is also available. Acquiring both territories together includes a General Manager already in place, creating a true management-in-place business from day one.
