If you’re looking to purchase a property management company
That gets valued the way businesses get valued.
Typically based on a multiple of Profit or Revenue.
Depending on the size of the business and various other factors such as customer concentration, levels of effectiveness in operating procedures , systems management & employee structure.
and lastly the level of motivation to sell.
Keep in mind most good businesses are not for sale that’s why only 20% of business for sale actually sell.
99% of the time a business that’s on the market is not a going to be a good deal so don’t base your judgement around what you find “available”.
That being said the avg multiple for small businesses that actually do sell is 2x SDE. Keep in mind buying a business comes with a lot higher risk factors than buying Real Estate.
there are many more variables in a property management business than there are in a property.
Good luck!
