Here’s a rare chance to own a profitable, debt-free, semi-absentee engineering and design firm in California — a business that runs smoothly without tying you to a desk. Enjoy steady income while investing only 10–15 hours per week, with an experienced project/business manager running daily operations. The licensed engineer, design team, and support staff all stay in place — no license required to own.

The firm serves a healthy mix of institutional clients, general contractors, and property owners, with no reliance on a handful of accounts or the owner’s personal contacts. Operating in California — the largest design and engineering market in the U.S. — the company benefits from strong demand and premium pricing.

The business is powered by a modern marketing engine: targeted campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, and Google, a professional website, and a fully built HubSpot CRM with automated funnels. This generates high-quality leads at just $25–45 each, backed by a 5-star reputation on Thumbtack, Yelp, and Google. A reliable 24/7 phone reception service with a dedicated vanity number ensures client calls are always answered, further supporting a professional image.

The firm maintains two small offices in Northern and Southern California for client meetings; these leases are optional and can be excluded from the deal, making the business fully relocatable or remote.

Financially, it’s strong and stable: $470K revenue run-rate, $320K SDE, plus $160K in signed contracts to be collected in the next 3–5 months and $230K+ in active negotiations.

The seller will provide 30 days of transition and remain available in an advisory role afterward. Seller financing up to 70% is available for qualified buyers, making this an accessible opportunity.

Rare to see a semi-absentee firm with this level of cash flow and scalability hit the market — act quickly!
