I have an existing lawn care business where I do light landscaping as well, I started negotiations to purchase an existing landscape business, and am wondering if the price is right.
The biz does about $200,000.00 a year in sales with about a 55% profit margin. They only have 1 year round commercial maintenance account (which brings about 45,000.00). The rest of the revenue is from paver patios & walkways, decks, landscape installations, minimal lawn repair/installations and misc spring/fall cleanups and mulching.
His equipment is worth about $30,000.00
Based on this info, what do you think the biz is worth? And what other variables should I look into to determine the business worth?
Thanks,
John
