Established design-build landscape and outdoor-living contractor in the San Diego metropolitan area, producing approximately $590K in three-year average Seller's Discretionary Earnings on more than $2.4 million in average annual revenue. The operating model is asset-light: no office, no yard, no equipment lot and no commercial lease anywhere in the cost structure.

The company designs, sells and installs hardscape, softscape, turf and paver work under a single contract, serving two channels: production landscape installation inside new residential home communities, and higher-end residential outdoor-living design-build. Installation runs through an established subcontractor crew network rather than a fixed payroll, so capacity expands and contracts with the build schedule instead of carrying idle cost. Materials are paid at delivery, so no supplier credit exposure transfers to a buyer, and collection is fast on a typical project cycle.

Key Financial Highlights

- Seller's Discretionary Earnings: approximately $590K, three-year average

- Annual Revenue: more than $2.4 million, three-year average

- No lease, no premises cost and no stocked inventory

- Short cash conversion cycle, with materials paid at delivery

- Work truck fleet and field equipment convey, including recent additions

Operational Overview

Ownership functions as a project manager by choice rather than necessity, and rates day-to-day operation as running largely on its own. An operations lead covers project management and is expected to run operations independently at closing. Design staff carry the sales function and work to revenue targets, so origination does not sit entirely with the owner.

A California C-27 landscaping contractor license is required to operate, and under California law it is qualified by an individual rather than a company, so it does not convey with the sale. A buyer holds the qualification personally or retains a qualifying individual, the customary route at this size. Ownership has offered an extended paid transition of one to two years, which covers that window comfortably.

Growth Opportunities

- Capture the remaining installed volume from communities already in build-out, where crews and builder-side access are positioned

- Extend the same model into additional communities as new development opens, with no new fixed cost or premises

- Introduce recurring maintenance and service agreements, which the business does not offer today

- Expand the higher-margin residential design-build book alongside production work

Reason for Sale

Ownership is retiring on a timeline of choice, with no financial pressure and no fixed deadline, and has stated a priority on continuity for the crews.

Ideal Buyer Profile

This suits a licensed contractor, a regional landscape operator adding coverage, or an investor paired with a licensed operating partner. The core transferable skill is production management, running concurrent community sites through a subcontractor network on a fixed bid.
