What Is My Construction Company Worth? (How Buyers Really Value It)

What is my construction company worth? It is the first question most owners ask when they start thinking about selling, and the answer surprises a lot of people. Two construction companies can have the same revenue and the same profit, and one can still sell for twice as much as the other. In this video, Chris from CT Acquisitions explains how buyers value a construction company. They take your profit and multiply it by a number. Then he covers the five things that push that multiple up or down: the kind of revenue you have, who your customers are, how tied the license and bonding are to you personally, the numbers behind your numbers, and the strength of your team. You will also hear who is actually buying construction businesses right now and what to work on before you sell, depending on your timeline. If you have been wondering how much your construction business is worth, or what you can do to raise its value before an exit, this is a good place to start.
