Typical Valuation Multiples
Commercial cleaning businesses typically sell for 2.0-3.5x annual Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE), depending on factors like client concentration, contract terms, and growth trajectory. Businesses with long-term contracts, diversified client bases, and strong employee retention command premium valuations.

Most cleaning business acquisitions qualify for SBA 7(a) loans, which offer up to 90% financing with 10-year terms. This allows qualified buyers to acquire cash-flowing businesses with minimal down payment, preserving capital for working capital and growth initiatives. We connect buyers with SBA-preferred lenders who specialize in cleaning industry acquisitions.
