Due diligence
What to Look For
Practical guidance from hundreds of real acquisition conversations.
Recurring Revenue and Contract Depth
- Ask how much revenue comes from maintenance agreements, service plans, seasonal contracts, or commercial accounts that renew on a regular schedule.
- Maintenance contracts with renewal rates above 80% mean a meaningful portion of next year's revenue is already booked before the year starts.
- In HVAC and plumbing, annual maintenance plans with documented renewal history are a strong signal. In cleaning and landscaping, multi-year commercial contracts tell a similar story.
- Ask to see the actual contract roster with renewal history, not just a summary number.
Licensing and Certification Continuity
- Every trade has its own licensing requirements. The key question is the same across all of them: does the license stay with the business when ownership changes?
- In HVAC and electrical contracting, the answer often depends on whether someone besides the owner holds a qualifying license.
- In plumbing, a bridge period where the seller stays on during a license transition is common and worth planning for early.
- Get clear on the licensing picture before you're in late-stage diligence — it affects your timeline and sometimes your deal structure.
Operations Manager or Lead That Runs the Floor
- Ask whether there's someone who handles scheduling, dispatch, and quality day to day without the owner being involved.
- A service manager or lead foreman who's been there for years tells you the business can keep running through a transition.
- Find out how long that person has been in their role and whether they're expected to stay after the sale.
- If the owner is still the person every technician calls when something goes sideways, that's worth understanding clearly before you make an offer.
Fleet, Equipment, and Asset Condition
- Ask for a vehicle list with year, mileage, and maintenance history on every truck.
- Aging vans with high mileage and no replacement plan represent real first-year costs that should factor into your offer.
- Well-maintained equipment with documented service records tells you the owner takes care of the details, which usually means the rest of the business is run the same way.
- Ask whether there's a known replacement schedule for equipment nearing end of useful life so you can plan capital needs before closing.

Home & Facility Services Businesses in Massachusetts
Start with the recurring revenue base and the licensing situation. Ask what percentage of revenue comes from accounts or agreements that renew each year, and find out who holds the trade license and whether it stays with the business after a sale. From there, look at whether there's an operations or service manager handling day-to-day work, and review the fleet and equipment condition. Browse home and facility services businesses for sale on Rejigg to see what's available.
Most home and facility services businesses sell for 2 to 8 times annual profit. Owner-operated businesses where the owner still runs calls or manages routes typically trade at 2 to 4x SDE. Businesses with a management layer, strong recurring contracts, and multiple licensed technicians can reach 4 to 8x EBITDA. Fleet condition and pending equipment replacement can meaningfully affect your first-year picture beyond the purchase price. Use the SBA loan calculator to model financing options.
Ask for three years of financials and separate maintenance or contract revenue from project or install work. Request the maintenance agreement or contract roster with renewal history. Walk the shop or yard to assess fleet and equipment condition. Find out who holds the trade license and whether anyone else on the team can qualify. Ask to shadow the operations for a day if the seller allows it, watching how dispatch, scheduling, and quality checks actually work.
Good starting points: What percentage of revenue is from recurring contracts or maintenance agreements, and what's the renewal rate? Who holds the trade license, and what's the plan for keeping the business licensed after the sale? Is there a service manager, operations manager, or lead foreman who handles day-to-day work without the owner? What's the age, mileage, and maintenance history on each vehicle in the fleet? Are any customers more than 15% of revenue? What software does the business use for scheduling and dispatch?

The contractor or trade license typically doesn't transfer with the business. The license is tied to the person who holds it. After the sale, you need a qualifying license holder in place. In practice, this means one of three things: you hold the license yourself, a current employee holds or is eligible to hold it, or you include a bridge period in the deal where the seller stays on while you or a new hire gets licensed. This is a standard conversation in every HVAC, electrical, and plumbing acquisition, so getting the answer early keeps your timeline realistic.
Seasonality matters less than how a business manages it. HVAC and irrigation companies that generate revenue from maintenance agreements during shoulder seasons, or landscaping businesses that add snow removal or holiday lighting in the winter, smooth their cash flow and tend to command better multiples. If revenue is heavily concentrated in one season, ask how the business covers fixed costs and manages staffing during slow months. That story, and how well the owner has managed it, tells you a lot about the quality of the operation.
