A Charlotte-area lawn care business of nearly twenty years, built entirely on word of mouth, with recurring commercial contracts making up most of its revenue.
Business Highlights

- Recently signed nursing home contracts worth $60k a year
- Zero advertising spend, with all growth from referrals
- Nearly twenty years of operating history
- Lean two-employee operation with low overhead
Considerations / Questions to Ask
- The listing describes close to $200k of contract revenue, but reported revenue is lower. Confirm which figure is current.
- How long do the commercial contracts run, and are they assignable?
- Two employees means the owner is likely doing the work. What does replacing them cost?
- What equipment is included and what condition is it in?
- Lawn care is seasonal. How is revenue spread across the year?
Opportunities
- No marketing has ever been run, so there is room to grow the residential side quickly
- Nursing home and commercial contracts recur every season without being resold
- Adding a crew converts directly into more routes in a growing metro
- A small, clean book is an easy bolt-on for a larger landscaping company
