FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a construction business in California?
Prices vary depending on sales volume and financial performance, but the median asking price for a construction business in California is approximately $837,500.
How much do building and construction company owners earn?
These businesses vary in construction volume, but California construction company owners report median annual sales of $1,700,000 and annual owner earnings of $340,000. These figures are based on businesses that have listed their annual revenue and seller's discretionary earnings.
How do I value a building and construction business?
Valuing a building and construction business involves considering several factors, including annual sales volume, profit, growth (or decline) trends, and historical stability. Brokers, business owners, and business buyers will typically rely on valuation multiples to gauge business value relative to similar businesses in the market. Revenue multiples in the California building and construction industry typically range from 0.35 to 0.82, with the median at 0.49. Earnings multiples range from 2.00 to 3.65, with the median at 2.88. These values suggest the average construction company in California may sell for around 0.49 times its annual revenue, and 2.88 times its annual owner’s earnings.
