I'm looking for profitable service businesses with $500K+ EBITDA, recurring revenue, low customer concentration, and management in place, ideally where an operating partner stays on to run day-to-day. Self-funded with no financing contingency, flexible on structure, and able to move quickly. Open nationwide.
