If you own a facility services company in Indianapolis, the kind that handles the bundle of things a building needs to stay open, and you are weighing an exit, you should be talking to a buyer who runs facility businesses for a living. Investera Holdings is a Michigan family-operated operator-buyer. We acquire established facility services companies across Marion County and keep them running long term with a strong systems-and-management model, so your accounts stay serviced, your team stays employed, and your building clients never feel the transition. We are not a broker and we are not a passive fund. We buy, install a professional management layer, and operate. In fact, one of our own portfolio companies is named Optimal Facility Services, alongside CT Cleaners, so this is precisely the work we understand from the inside.
Why Indianapolis owners are thinking about selling now
Indianapolis is a facility-heavy city. It is a convention and sports capital, home to Lucas Oil Stadium, Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the Indiana Convention Center, and the events that fill them, and it carries a dense core of corporate campuses and institutions, from Eli Lilly and Elevance Health to Rolls-Royce, Roche, and the region’s major hospital systems. Every one of those buildings needs the unglamorous, essential work that facility services companies provide: janitorial coordination, day porters, floor and window care, light maintenance, grounds and exterior upkeep, and reliable vendor management. That work is bundled, contracted, and recurring, which makes a well-run facility services book one of the most defensible revenue streams in the metro.
The market is also consolidating around operators who can deliver multiple services under one accountable relationship, and many of the founders who built these Indianapolis companies are ready to step back. Property managers and corporate real estate teams increasingly want one trusted partner rather than a dozen subcontractors, which rewards companies that have the systems and staff to deliver breadth reliably. If you have built exactly that, with tenured supervisors, multi-year agreements, and a clean reputation across the Indianapolis area, you have created real, transferable value, and this is a strong window to turn it into a clean exit instead of continuing to carry the whole operation on your shoulders.
Who we buy in the Indianapolis area
We are a fit for established Indianapolis facility services owners with recurring contracts, not brand-new ventures. The best fits already run day-to-day operations through supervisors rather than the owner alone.
- Recurring, contract-based facility or janitorial revenue
- Around $500K+ in revenue or SDE (close is fine)
- Capable supervisors and a dependable field team
- A solid reputation with Indianapolis-area clients
- Owner open to a clean handoff or staying on a while
If that is your company, the conversation is worthwhile even if you are still a year or two out. We would rather know each other early than compress everything into a rush.
What makes selling to Investera different
No broker fees. You are talking to the buyer directly, so there is no listing commission skimmed from your proceeds at closing.
A genuinely confidential process. Your team, your clients, and your competitors hear nothing while we talk, which protects the contracts that give your company its value.
Creative deal structures. We can build terms around a full cash exit, a phased handoff, seller involvement, or an earnout, depending on your goals and your financials.
Operators, not a fund. We literally run a company called Optimal Facility Services; we buy to operate for the long term, not to strip and resell.
How the process works
The path is straightforward. We start with a private call to understand your company, your service mix, and what you want from an exit. If there is mutual interest, we sign an NDA, review a couple of years of financials and your contract list, and give you an honest value range quickly. From there we can move to a written offer, a tight confirmatory diligence period, and a closing on your timeline. Because we are the decision-maker, there is no committee, no lender, and no drawn-out waiting on someone else’s approval.
We will take care of what you built
When we acquire an Indianapolis facility services company, we install a dedicated general manager and a put-in-charge operating team so the business runs on systems, not on the owner’s daily involvement. Supervisors keep leading their crews, quality and safety routines continue, and the reputation you built with Indianapolis property managers and facility directors stays protected because service quality holds steady. We are buying your goodwill and your reliability, and the surest way to destroy those is disruption, so we do the opposite: stabilize the team, invest, and grow the accounts you worked hard to win.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my facility services business worth in Indianapolis?
Most healthy facility services companies trade in a range of roughly 2.5x to 4x SDE (seller’s discretionary earnings), with the multiple shaped by contract quality, service breadth, margins, and how well the company runs without you. That is a typical range, not a guarantee; we will give you a specific read once we see your numbers and contracts.
Will you keep this confidential?
Yes. Everything is under an NDA and nothing is announced. Your team, clients, and competitors are not told anything until you decide. Protecting your contracts serves both of us.
Do you charge fees or commissions?
No. Because you deal with the buyer directly, no broker fees or listing commissions come out of your proceeds. What we agree on is what you receive.
Can I stay involved after the sale?
You can, but it is not required. Some owners stay on briefly to transition client relationships; others want a clean exit. We bring in our own general manager, so the business does not hinge on you long term.
How long does a sale take?
Once we have your financials and contract list, we can usually provide a value range within a couple of weeks and close within a couple of months, depending on diligence and how fast you want to move.
What areas around Indianapolis do you buy in?
All of Marion County and the surrounding metro, including Carmel, Fishers, Greenwood, Noblesville, and Lawrence. If you serve the greater Indianapolis area, we are interested.
