Why Sell Your Route?

There are many reasons pool service professionals decide to sell their routes. Whatever your situation, we're here to help you maximize your return and ensure a smooth transition.

Retirement

After years of building your business, it's time to cash out and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Your route is a valuable asset—let us help you convert it into the retirement fund you deserve.

Business Consolidation

Streamline your operations by selling off routes that don't fit your strategic focus. Whether you're concentrating on specific geographic areas or service types, we can help divest the right accounts.

Life Changes

Relocating, health issues, or career changes? Life happens. We understand the urgency and work quickly to connect you with serious buyers while protecting your interests.

Capitalize on Market Value

The pool service industry is strong, and buyer demand is high. Now may be the perfect time to sell at peak market valuations and move on to your next venture.

What Sets Us Apart

We offer two service paths to maximize your outcome. After a discovery call, we'll recommend the best fit for your route—whether that's our sell-side brokerage (any size route, 1× monthly revenue fee) or buy-side advisory (100+ accounts, buyer pays fee).

Operator Experience

We've built and scaled pool service companies ourselves. This firsthand experience helps us price your route accurately and present it to buyers who understand its value.

Confidential Marketing

We protect your business relationships by marketing your route discreetly. Your customers and competitors won't know until you're ready.

Expert Negotiation

We handle all negotiations on your behalf, ensuring you get fair terms and protecting your interests throughout the process.

Secure Transactions

All deals include third-party escrow services to protect both buyer and seller. Your money is secure until the transition is complete.

Transition Support

We guide both you and the buyer through customer handoff. Our partnerships with leading pool service software providers ensure smooth transitions and strong retention.

Fair Pricing

Our sell-side brokerage charges 1× monthly revenue—half what most brokers charge (2×). For buy-side advisory on larger routes, the buyer pays our fee so you keep 100% of proceeds.

The Selling Process

1

Initial Consultation

We start with a discovery call to understand your route, timeline, and goals. Based on your route size and situation, we'll recommend which service path maximizes your outcome.

2

Route Valuation

We provide detailed valuation based on current market conditions, account quality, density, and retention. For larger routes in our buy-side advisory, we use proprietary EBITDA modeling from our sector experience.

3

Marketing Your Route

We create a compelling listing and present it to our network of pre-qualified buyers. All marketing is done confidentially to protect your business relationships.

4

Buyer Vetting & Offers

We screen all interested buyers, verify their financial capability, and present you with qualified offers. We handle all negotiations to get you the best terms possible.

5

Closing & Transition

Once terms are agreed upon, we facilitate the closing with secure escrow. We then guide the transition process, helping the buyer take over while ensuring your accounts transfer successfully.

How We Value Your Route

We use market-based valuations tailored to your route. For sell-side brokerage, we price based on monthly revenue multiples (typically 10-12×). For buy-side advisory on larger routes, we use proprietary EBITDA modeling from our operating experience.

Base Valuation: Pool routes typically sell for 10-12× monthly service revenue. The exact multiple depends on account quality, density, and retention—our operator experience helps us price your route accurately.

Account Density

Routes with accounts clustered in tight geographic areas are worth more due to reduced drive time and increased efficiency for the new owner.

Customer Retention

Long-term customers who pay consistently are highly valuable. Low churn rates command premium pricing.

Payment History

Accounts with autopay and consistent payment records are more attractive to buyers than cash-pay or delinquent accounts.

Service Mix

Weekly service accounts are typically valued higher than bi-weekly. Additional revenue from repairs and equipment sales can also increase value.

Market Demand

Certain markets have higher buyer demand, which can drive up valuations. We know which areas are hot and can time your sale accordingly.

Seller FAQ

How long does it take to sell my route?

With our pre-qualified buyer network, most routes sell within 2-6 weeks. Routes in high-demand markets with strong metrics can sell even faster.

What do I need to provide to get started?

We need your monthly service revenue, account count, general service area, and any key details about your customer base. From there, we handle the rest of the documentation and marketing.

Will my customers know I'm selling?

No. We market your route confidentially. Customers are only notified once a buyer is identified and you've agreed to terms. We help with the transition communication to maintain retention.

What are your fees?

We offer two service paths. Sell-side brokerage: 1× monthly revenue (half what most brokers charge at 2×). Buy-side advisory for routes with 100+ accounts: buyer pays our fee, so you keep 100% of proceeds. We determine best fit after a discovery call.

Do I have to train the buyer?

Most sales include 1-2 weeks of seller training to introduce the buyer to accounts and show them the route. This helps ensure customer retention and a smooth transition for everyone.

What if accounts cancel during the transition?

Our agreements include provisions for account retention. We work closely with both parties to minimize cancellations through proper communication and customer handoff procedures.
