Investera Holdings is a Michigan, family-operated company that buys commercial cleaning and janitorial businesses in Miami and keeps them running. We are not a broker and not a passive fund. When we acquire a company, we bring in strong operating systems and a dedicated general manager, or a put-in-charge team, so the business performs every night without depending on you being on the floor. If you have spent years building nightly accounts across Miami-Dade and you are starting to think about what comes next, we would like to have a confidential conversation. Our own portfolio, including CT Cleaners and Optimal Facility Services, is proof that we buy service companies to operate them for the long term, not to flip them.
Why Miami owners are thinking about selling now
Miami runs on square footage that has to be cleaned every single night. The Brickell financial corridor, Downtown’s Class A towers, the corporate campuses of Doral, the Coral Gables office market, and the retail floors of Aventura all depend on reliable janitorial crews. Add the hospitality engine of Miami Beach and the Design District, the medical facilities of the Civic Center Health District, and the constant flow through PortMiami and Miami International Airport, and you have one of the deepest recurring cleaning markets in the country. Property managers here sign multi-year contracts and value a vendor who simply shows up and performs.
At the same time, the trade is getting harder to run as an owner-operator. Miami’s subtropical humidity means mold, mildew, and moisture are year-round adversaries, and hurricane season brings emergency post-storm cleanups on top of the regular route. Labor is tight and turnover is real, so the businesses that win are the ones with documented systems, trained supervisors, and dependable staffing. That is exactly the operational layer we install. If you have the accounts and the reputation but the day-to-day grind is wearing on you, this is a good moment to talk to a buyer who will keep the lights on.
Who we buy in the Miami area
We are looking for established Miami janitorial and commercial cleaning companies with real, contracted revenue and a team that already does the work. We care far more about the health of your accounts and crew than about a polished pitch.
- Recurring, contract-based janitorial or cleaning revenue
- Roughly $500K+ in annual revenue or SDE (close is fine)
- Supervisors and crews who run the nightly routes
- A solid reputation with Miami-Dade property managers
- Owner open to a clean handoff or staying on briefly
If most of that sounds like your company, the conversation is worth having even if you are only exploring. There is no cost and no pressure to move forward.
What makes selling to Investera different
No broker fees, ever. We buy directly from you, so there is no listing commission or middleman percentage skimmed off your life’s work at closing.
A confidential process. We keep discussions private so your account managers, cleaning staff, and clients hear nothing until you and we are ready to tell them together.
Creative deal structures. We can shape a clean cash purchase, a phased handoff, seller financing, or an earnout so the terms fit your timeline and goals rather than a rigid formula.
Operators, not a fund. We are a hands-on family business that runs cleaning companies ourselves; your accounts become something we manage, not a line item a distant investor resells.
How the process works
The process is straightforward and moves at your pace. It starts with a private phone call to understand your business, your accounts, and what you want out of a sale. If there is a fit, we sign a mutual NDA and review a light set of financials and contract information. From there we present a written offer with clear terms, work through diligence together, and coordinate a smooth closing and transition. Most conversations move from first call to signed agreement in a matter of weeks, not many months, because we are the decision-makers and we are not waiting on a committee.
We will take care of what you built
When we take over, our first priority is continuity. We keep your crews and supervisors, honor your commitments to Miami-Dade property managers, and hold the service standards your name is known for. Then we layer in the systems that let the company run without a founder in the truck: standardized scopes of work, quality-control checklists, supervisor accountability, and a general manager who owns daily operations. The goal is a cleaning business that keeps your reputation intact, treats your people well, and grows steadily long after the handoff is complete.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my commercial cleaning business worth in Miami?
Most healthy janitorial companies trade in a range of roughly 2.5 to 4 times seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE). Where you land depends on the mix of recurring contracts, margins, client concentration, and how well the operation runs without you. This is a typical range, not a guarantee, and we will walk you through how we arrive at a number for your specific business.
Will you keep this confidential?
Yes. Confidentiality is central to how we work. We sign a mutual NDA early, and nothing is shared with your staff, clients, or competitors until you decide the timing is right. Your route stability and reputation are protected throughout.
Do you charge any broker or advisory fees?
No. We are the buyer, not a broker. There is no listing fee, no commission, and no advisory charge taken out of your proceeds. What we agree on is what you receive.
Can I stay involved after the sale?
That is entirely your choice. Some owners want a clean exit and a short handoff; others prefer to stay on for a transition or a longer role. We can structure either, because our aim is to keep the business strong, not to push you out the door.
How long does a sale usually take?
Once we connect and there is a fit, most deals move from first conversation to close in a few weeks to a couple of months. Because we make our own decisions, we do not stall waiting on outside approval.
What areas around Miami do you buy in?
We buy throughout Miami-Dade County and the surrounding area, including Hialeah, Coral Gables, Doral, Kendall, Miami Beach, Homestead, and Aventura. If your accounts sit anywhere in greater Miami, we would like to talk.
