Business Description
An excellent opportunity to acquire an established, year-round lawn and plow service business serving Spokane County. Founded in 2019, the company has developed a stable operating history, recurring seasonal demand, and a lean cost structure—making it an attractive platform for an owner-operator or strategic buyer.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Established 2019 — Seven years of operating history.
- Year-round service model — Lawn care and snow/plow services help balance seasonality and provide multiple revenue streams throughout the year.
- Low overhead — Streamlined operation with potential for efficient ownership.
- Additional revenue opportunities — Add-on services can be incorporated into project bids.
- Diversified service offering — Includes a herbicide/sprayer side business.
- Seasonal sprinkler services — Fall sprinkler blowouts/winterization and spring irrigation system turn-ons provide additional recurring seasonal revenue opportunities.
- Strong cash-flow profile — Reported revenue of approximately $110,791, with $70,150 FFE and $75,584 SDE.
SELLER MOTIVATED TO CLOSE BEFORE YEAR-END — IDEAL TIMING FOR A TRAINED TRANSITION
The seller is motivated to transition ownership before the end of the year, creating an opportunity for a qualified buyer to take advantage of the upcoming shoulder and off-season to learn the business, receive hands-on training, and become familiar with its operations before the next busy season begins.
Rather than stepping into an established operation in the middle of peak demand, a buyer may have the advantage of working alongside the current owner during the seasonal transition, gaining familiarity with equipment, customers, service schedules, vendors, and day-to-day operations. This timing provides an opportunity to establish a comfortable ownership transition, identify growth opportunities, and prepare for the spring and summer workload with greater confidence.
For an entrepreneur seeking an established foothold in the Spokane-area landscaping and snow-removal market, this business offers an attractive combination of existing operations, multiple service lines, low overhead, and growth potential.
The business also benefits from complementary seasonal irrigation services, including fall sprinkler blowouts and winterization to help protect irrigation systems before freezing temperatures, as well as spring sprinkler system turn-ons to prepare systems for the growing season. These services provide valuable recurring customer touchpoints and opportunities to cross-sell additional lawn, landscaping, and irrigation services.
The seasonal nature of the business also creates a natural transition window for a new owner. The slower shoulder-season months can be used to become familiar with existing customers and service expectations, review operating procedures, organize equipment and schedules, and prepare for the upcoming season. For a first-time business owner, this can be a particularly valuable opportunity to learn the operation before entering its busiest revenue-generating months.
