How We Value Your Route
Pool routes typically sell for 10-12× monthly service revenue. The exact multiple depends on route-specific factors that we evaluate using our firsthand industry experience and current market data.
Account Density & Geography
Tightly clustered accounts reduce drive time and increase efficiency. Routes with strong density in desirable markets command premium multiples.
Customer Retention
Long-term customers who pay consistently are the most valuable accounts. Low churn rates signal a well-managed route that buyers are willing to pay more for.
Payment History & Autopay
Accounts on autopay with consistent payment records are significantly more attractive to buyers. Higher autopay penetration drives up valuation.
Service Mix & Revenue Quality
Weekly service accounts with add-on revenue from repairs, equipment, and chemicals are valued higher. Diversified revenue streams reduce risk for buyers.
Market Demand
Certain markets have higher buyer demand than others. We track market conditions across all 50 states and understand which areas command premium pricing.
Seller FAQ
How long does it take to sell my pool route?
Most routes receive qualified offers within 2 weeks of listing and close within 4-6 weeks. High-demand markets with strong metrics can move even faster.
What information do I need to provide?
To get started, we need your monthly service revenue, account count, general service area, and key details about your customer base. We'll guide you through exactly what we need during the discovery call.
Will my customers know I'm selling?
No. We market your route confidentially to our vetted buyer network. Customers are only notified once terms are agreed upon and both parties are ready for the transition.
What is your commission?
We charge 12% of the total purchase price — significantly below the industry standard of 16.7%. Our full sell-side advisory service, including valuation, buyer sourcing, negotiation, and transition support, is included.
Do I have to train the buyer?
Most sales include 1-2 weeks of training where you introduce the buyer to accounts and share route-specific knowledge. This training period is designed to maximize customer retention during the transition.
What if accounts cancel during the transition?
Our agreements include provisions for account retention during the transition period. We work closely with both parties to minimize cancellations through careful communication and a structured handoff process.
Can I sell just part of my route?
Yes. If you want to keep some accounts and sell others, we can help structure a partial sale. This is common for operators who want to downsize while keeping a manageable route.
How is the purchase price paid?
Transactions are conducted through secure third-party escrow. Payment terms vary — some deals are all-cash at closing, while others include structured payment plans. We help negotiate terms that work for your situation.
