Prospective buyers should consider these locales as starting points in their search for the right business opportunity. Keep in mind, not all businesses for sale in the above cities will be listed at the city level. To maintain confidentiality, many only list the county or state, which makes them a little more difficult to find.

What are the average valuation multiples in Texas?
