This Company hosts multi-disciplinary, twice-yearly continuing education events focused on employment law, human resources, benefits, training, and workforce compliance. These programs provide attendees with access to multiple nationally recognized continuing education accreditations. The Company benefits from limited direct competition offering comparable multi-disciplinary accreditation under a single platform. The client base is comprised primarily of small to mid-sized organizations—including internal HR and payroll professionals, employment and labor attorneys, public-sector administrators, and nonprofit HR teams—many of whom lack in-house HR or legal infrastructure and depend on these events to stay current with changing regulations. Day-to-day operations are lean, supported by a General Manager/Administrative Assistant who dedicates approximately 5–7 hours per week, along with 1099 consultants engaged as needed for content development and marketing initiatives. The owner remains focused on high-level strategy, contributing roughly 3 hours per week toward event planning, speaker coordination, and sponsor relationships rather than routine operations. After more than two decades of successful performance, the owner is preparing for retirement and is offering one to two years of transition support post-close. To further demonstrate confidence in the Company’s ongoing success, the seller is willing to carry 25% of the purchase price. With a purchase price of $625,000, this business is poised and ready for a new owner to step in and continue the operations. Multiple growth opportunities have been identified, including geographic expansion, deeper partnerships with associations and sponsors, increased monetization of an established marketing database, and more aggressive outbound marketing efforts.

This is a fast-growing cleaning company focused on apartment unit turn work and light construction cleaning. The business was started in 2023 and grew quickly by building strong relationships with property managers and construction firms. Most revenue comes from cleaning vacant apartments between tenants, with a smaller portion from final construction cleanings, townhomes, common areas, carpets, and rush cleanings.Roughly 90 percent of revenue comes from apartment turns. These are repeat, high-demand jobs tied to move-ins and move-outs. Work is steady because property managers need units ready on tight timelines. Jobs are requested through a third-party app that lists the unit, urgency, and scope. The team schedules, cleans, inspects, and documents each job with photos, creating clear proof of work and strong trust with clients.The company runs lean with a small team of about six employees, including part-time staff. Labor flexes as volume changes, keeping jobs moving and costs controlled. The owners no longer clean units themselves. One person could easily step into the owner role and run the business.This opportunity is ideal for a buyer who wants a simple service business with repeat clients, low overhead, and no office required. A buyer with property management, construction, or service business experience would be a great fit, but the business can also work well for a hands-on owner willing to learn and manage people and schedules.The seller is committed to a smooth transition, offering exceptional support and training. Additionally, the experienced and dedicated staff are willing to continue with the new owner, ensuring continuity and stability.For further details, including a confidential opportunity summary with financials and photos, please request more information using the form on this page.
