About this opportunity

This is a great opportunity to acquire a well-established lawn maintenance and landscaping company with recurring residential and commercial revenue, a strong reputation, and significant upside potential. The business services multiple fast-growing communities in a desirable year-round market with virtually no seasonality.

The current owner purchased the business from a longtime operator and has since transitioned into other ventures out of state. Because the business is currently operated remotely with minimal owner involvement, this opportunity is ideally suited for an owner-operator or local manager looking to scale an already profitable operation.

The company focuses primarily on recurring lawn maintenance, landscape bed maintenance, shrub care, and new sod installations. With established crews, automated systems, and a professionally built website generating ongoing leads, a new owner can step in and immediately capitalize on the strong foundation already in place.

Business Highlights:

  • Established lawn care and landscaping business with loyal recurring customer base
  • Services multiple growing communities across a large service territory
  • Mix of approximately 30–35 residential clients and 5–7 commercial accounts
  • Commercial contracts provide stable recurring monthly revenue
  • Largest commercial client generates approximately $3,000 per month
  • Primarily weekly recurring maintenance accounts with some bi-weekly service
  • Additional revenue stream from sod installation and landscape projects
  • Three full-time 1099 team members, including a supervisor, expected to remain
  • Additional temporary labor team available for larger installation projects
  • Professionally built website and online presence already established
  • Call center service handles inbound calls and books new jobs using preset pricing
  • Automated residential billing system through QuickBooks
  • Extremely low current overhead with no leased facility expense
  • Current owner operates remotely in only 2–4 hours per week
  • Year-round Florida market with minimal seasonal fluctuations
  • Significant pricing opportunity against larger, higher-priced competitors
  • Ability to achieve strong margins while still remaining competitively priced
  • Ideal opportunity for owner-operator, landscaping company expansion, or strategic add-on acquisition

Growth Opportunities:

The market presents substantial room for expansion. According to ownership, the area’s larger competitors are significantly overpriced, creating an opportunity for a new owner to aggressively grow market share while maintaining healthy margins. A local hands-on operator could scale quickly through additional marketing, route density optimization, expanded commercial services, and increased installation work.

The seller is motivated due to other business interests and is open to reasonable offers, including limited seller financing for qualified buyers. Transition assistance is available to ensure a smooth handoff.
