Business Description
Established residential real estate brokerage operating under a national franchise brand in Ventura County, California, one of coastal Southern California's most affluent housing markets. The office supports approximately 70 producing agents on a 100% commission split, generating $107M in 2025 sales volume and $2.38M in total company income.
What sets this business apart is its franchise structure: rather than paying a percentage royalty on commissions, the brand charges a flat initial fee and a modest monthly per-agent fee. That means company revenue scales with agent headcount, not production, a meaningfully different and more predictable economic profile than a typical split-commission brokerage.
The business has a clear turnaround story. After several loss years tied to an underperforming second office, that location was closed and costs were reset. The company returned to profitability in 2025 and is tracking further ahead in 2026. Seller's discretionary earnings, adjusted for one-time, non-recurring costs, stand at $155,312.
All acquisition-related SBA financing is retired by the seller at closing, so a buyer acquires the business debt-free and unlevered. The office operates from a single leased location with an established administrative team already in place (Director of Operations and Office Administrator) to support agent production through a transition. Ownership is motivated by an out-of-state relocation, not by any distress in the business, and has been fast and thorough throughout the diligence process to date.
Offered at $450,000, debt-free to the buyer (2.9x adjusted SDE, 0.19x 2025 total income). Entity or asset purchase available at buyer's election. Qualified buyers will be asked to sign an NDA before receiving the full Confidential Information Memorandum, which includes detailed financials, agent production data, and franchise terms.
