Strong numbers, solid structure… but one thing needs to be proven.
This junk removal business in Kissimmee, Florida is listed at $649K, generating about $540K in revenue and $200K in cash flow.
And the big claim: it’s being run absentee.
Most of the time, that’s where deals fall apart.
But this one actually holds up — at least on paper.
Deal Snapshot
Let’s run it through a standard SBA-style scenario.
Financing Overview
After debt, you’re left with about $105K per year.
That’s strong for a deal at this price.
Why This Looks Good
This deal checks a lot of boxes.
- Healthy margins: 37% vs ~25% industry average.
- Fair pricing: 3.25x multiple, right in line with the market.
- Strong DSCR: 2.1 gives solid cushion.
- Recurring revenue: Repeat customers and contracts.
- Fast payback: Down payment recovered in under a year.
On paper, this is exactly what buyers are looking for.
The One Thing You Can’t Ignore
The margin + absentee combo is where this deal gets risky.
- High margin: 37% is well above industry norms.
- Absentee claim: Owner not involved day-to-day.
- Potential disconnect: Those two don’t usually coexist cleanly.
If this is truly absentee, margins are often lower due to management layers and inefficiencies.
So one of two things is true:
- The business is exceptionally well run
- Or the numbers need to be adjusted
That’s the entire deal.
What You Need To Verify
This is where diligence matters most.
- Owner involvement: What does “absentee” actually mean here?
- Management structure: Who is running operations day-to-day?
- Adjusted cash flow: Does SDE include hidden owner effort?
- Sustainability: Can this margin hold under new ownership?
If the absentee claim holds, this is a strong deal.
If it doesn’t, the economics change quickly.
BizHub Verdict
This deal scores an 8.0 / 10.
Simple, efficient, and reasonably priced.
But the absentee + high margin combination must be proven — not assumed.
