How Much Is Your Florida Cleaners Business Worth?

How Much Is Your Florida Cleaners Business Worth?
A question on the top of every business owner’s mind is, “how much is my business worth?”

With season end approaching, I thought this would be a good time to update you on cleaners business sales throughout Florida and give you some data regarding sales and pricing. Here are some numbers for you to ponder:

  • 33 = the number of cleaners businesses sold in the last twelve months by the Business Broker of Florida Association members.
  • $189,304 = the average revenue of the 33 sold cleaners businesses.
  • $145,630 = the average sold price of the 33 sold cleaners businesses.
  • $66,277= the average owner benefit generated in each sold cleaners business.
  • 0.769 = the revenue multiple (sold price divided by revenue) of the 33 sold cleaners businesses.
  • 2.197 = the owner benefit multiple (sold price divided by owner benefit) of the 33 sold cleaners businesses.
  • 82% = the average percentage down payment of the 33 sold cleaners businesses.
  • 191 = the average number of days on the market of the 33 sold cleaners businesses.


  • What does this mean?

    Cleaners businesses are in high demand. And, in spite of a more conservative and cash strapped buying clientele, they are still paying near historical multiples with a percent down not realized in many other industries. If you have been contemplating selling your cleaners business, now is a great time! Please contact me for a no obligation discussion.
