"Retire from your business and keep your legacy alive."
You built something real — a business with a reputation, a customer base, a team that shows up. If you're starting to think about stepping back, we'd like to talk. We buy established home-service businesses across Nassau County directly — no broker, no commission, no public listing.
A lot of owners hesitate because they don't know what happens next. Here's exactly what does.
Fill out the short form below — it takes about 5 minutes. Basic information: your trade, your location, years in business, approximate revenue. Nobody finds out. Not your employees, not your customers, not your competitors.
Someone from our team calls you — usually within 24 hours. It's a real conversation, not a sales pitch. We'll ask questions, you ask questions, and we'll both figure out if this makes sense to explore further. No pressure, no timeline.
If you want to move forward, we'll review your financials and come back with a real number in plain English — what the business is worth, how we got there, and what the deal structure looks like. No surprises, no finance-speak.
There is no obligation — at any step. If our offer isn't right, we'll tell you what would change it. If the timing isn't right, we'll stay in touch on your schedule. Your timeline is the only timeline that matters here.
Nassau County is one of the most densely populated counties in the country — over 1.3 million residents, a dense stock of single-family homes, and a year-round demand for home services that keeps good businesses busy decade after decade. If you've built your business here, you know the territory. So do we.
Massapequa, Massapequa Park, Seaford, Wantagh, Bellmore, Merrick, Freeport, Oceanside, Valley Stream, Lynbrook, Rockville Centre, Long Beach, Baldwin — dense residential corridors where a single zip code can sustain a full service team year-round.
Great Neck, Manhasset, Port Washington, Roslyn, Glen Cove, Oyster Bay, Syosset, Jericho, Woodbury — higher-income neighborhoods with larger properties, premium service expectations, and customers who stay loyal for decades.
Hempstead, Garden City, Mineola, Hicksville, Levittown, East Meadow, Westbury, Plainview, Bethpage, Farmingdale, New Hyde Park, Uniondale — the heart of Nassau County's home-service economy and some of the most densely served residential markets in New York.
From the HVAC company that's kept Massapequa families comfortable for 25 years, to the landscaping crew that's been showing up every spring in Garden City since the '90s — these are exactly the businesses we look for.
Don't see your trade? Reach out anyway — if you serve Nassau County homeowners and have built a real business, we want to hear from you.
Maybe you're 58 and your knees aren't what they were. Maybe the business is doing well — better than ever — but you're starting to realize there's nobody in the family to hand it to. Maybe you've been the first one in and the last one out for 20 years, and you'd like to know what it feels like to take a vacation without your phone going off.
None of that means you're done caring about what you built. It means you're human.
What we offer is simple: a direct conversation with a serious buyer who already understands Nassau County, already understands your industry, and isn't going to waste your time. No listing your business publicly. No employees finding out. No awkward conversations unless and until you decide you want to move forward.
You don't have to be ready. You just have to be curious.
We're not trying to flip your business. We're looking for companies we can operate and grow for the long term — and that changes what we look for.
We look for businesses generating $800K or more in annual revenue with at least $200K in annual profit (SDE). If you're close but not quite there, reach out anyway — we're flexible if the fundamentals are strong.
The business shouldn't collapse if you stop showing up. Trained technicians, a dispatcher, or a service manager who can run day-to-day operations — that's one of the most valuable things you can have when it's time to transition.
Service contracts, maintenance agreements, or a loyal customer base that calls back every season — predictable revenue is what separates a business from a job. We value it, and pay accordingly.
A business that's been serving the same communities for 15–25+ years has something money can't buy: a reputation. A name people recognize on a truck. That local brand equity matters to us, and we protect it after the transition.
Most Nassau County home-service businesses trade at 2.5x–4x SDE — your Seller's Discretionary Earnings, which is your profit plus your salary plus any personal expenses run through the business. Here's what that means for common business profiles in this market:
🌡️ HVAC company, $1.2M revenue, $280K SDE → typically values at $700K–$1.1M
🔧 Plumbing company, $900K revenue, $220K SDE → typically values at $550K–$880K
🌿 Landscaping company, $850K revenue, $200K SDE → typically values at $500K–$800K
⚡ Electrical contractor, $1.5M revenue, $350K SDE → typically values at $875K–$1.4M
These are ranges, not guarantees — recurring contracts, employee tenure, and clean books all push the number up. The only way to know what your business is worth is to have a real conversation. Ours is free and takes 5 minutes.
Most Nassau County business owners assume a broker is the only path. It isn't. Here's what each option really looks like.
| Selling Through a Broker | Selling to Legacy Trade Holdings | |
|---|---|---|
| Commission | 10–12% of the sale price — on a $1M deal, that's $100K–$120K out of your pocket | $0. We're the buyer, not a middleman. |
| Timeline | 12–24 months to find and close with a buyer — often longer | 60–120 days from first conversation to signed agreement |
| Confidentiality | Business listed on BizBuySell and similar sites — employees, customers, and competitors can find it | Completely private. Only who you tell knows. |
| Certainty | Depends on finding the right buyer — deals fall through regularly | If we make an offer, we mean it. No tire kickers. |
| Who you deal with | Multiple unknown buyers, due diligence from strangers, lengthy negotiations | One direct relationship, one conversation at a time |
