In this episode, the hosts break down a North Carolina-based landscaping business listed for $9 million, generating $1.8M in EBITDA on $8.2M in revenue. Sounds great, right? Not so fast. They dive into hidden risks like customer contracts, labor concerns, and equipment valuation to determine if this is truly a great deal—or a potential headache.

With 52 employees, $2.3M in equipment, and major growth potential, there’s a lot to love… but also some red flags. They discuss why the seller is moving on, the impact of H2B visa labor risks, and the real cash flow number buyers should consider before making a bid. If you’re eyeing a blue-collar business acquisition, this episode is packed with insights!
