This family-run home pest-control inspection company performs all services related to wood-destroying organisms such as termites and fungi in the State of California. Their services include inspections, repairs, and local or whole-house treatments. The business offers the opportunity to have a flexible work schedule with the owner setting their own hours and still able to make a six-figure income.

The company has 30 years of contact from their strong customer base of property managers and real estate agents for residential properties ranging from single-family residences to multi-unit condominiums. The owner does not do any active marketing outside of occasionally handing out flyers in neighborhoods. A full 99% of the business comes through referrals, with daily inquiries adding to the scheduled bookings.

Their main clients are potential real estate buyers who need a thorough and professional inspection during the contingency period of their purchase and property management companies that represent homeowner’s associations (HOAs). Due to the abundance of termites in the California climate, there will always be a need to control them, making this business recession-resistant and offering a diverse, interesting work environment with lots of time outdoors.

A buyer with strengths in networking or social media could achieve significant growth through implementing a marketing and advertising campaign, attending networking events with real estate agents, and implementing a social media outreach campaign. Additional growth opportunities can come from increasing the staff able to perform inspections and repairs, hiring someone who can handle chemical applications, and expanding the geographic reach. The client base consists of long-term, repeat customers such as housing and apartment complex managers who rely on the services the business provides whenever there is a turnover on their property.

The business operates out of a home office, has low overhead, minimal space requirements for chemicals and equipment, and can run as a 1- or 2-person office. Due to being a home-based business, the new owner would ideally be located in the Southern California region.

The owner is selling this company in order to focus his time on another family business, though he will facilitate a smooth transition of the business and client relationships.

This is an established business. This is not a new franchise or start-up opportunity.
