Based on activity on Axial’s M&A platform, the core revenue range for Real Estate Operating Companies Independent Sponsors is $3M-$16M, with a core EBITDA range of $600K-$3M. Company size can be an important indicator of fit, as firms often concentrate their experience, resources, and transaction activity within particular segments of the market.
