Investera Holdings is a Michigan family-operated company that acquires and keeps running service businesses. We are not a broker and not a passive fund. We are hands-on operators, and we are actively looking to buy an HVAC and mechanical contractor in Farmington Hills. If you have built a book of residential service agreements across the neighborhoods off Halsted and Middlebelt, or you handle rooftop units and boilers for buildings along Haggerty Road, we want to have a private conversation about a sale that protects your name, your technicians, and your customers. Our portfolio includes CT Cleaners and Optimal Facility Services, so we already run recurring-service companies day to day.
Why Farmington Hills owners are thinking about selling now
Few trades are as tied to Michigan’s climate as heating and cooling, and Farmington Hills feels the full swing of it. Winters here are long, cold, and salted, with furnaces and boilers running hard from November into spring, and no-heat calls that cannot wait. Then the summer flips to hot and humid, and the same customers need their air conditioning and rooftop units to keep offices, medical suites, and the Class A space along Northwestern Highway comfortable. That seasonal whipsaw is exactly what makes a well-run HVAC company valuable: it produces demand year-round and rewards contractors with maintenance agreements and repeat relationships.
Farmington Hills also has the housing stock and commercial base to sustain that demand. Established subdivisions built decades ago mean aging systems due for replacement, while corporate anchors like Bosch, the Nissan Technical Center, and the office and lab space scattered across the city need precise, reliable climate control. Meanwhile, many owner-operators who founded their shops years ago are hitting the point where the on-call phone and the truck are wearing them down, and finding a buyer who will actually keep the company intact is harder than it should be. That combination is why now is a reasonable time to explore your options.
Who we buy in the Farmington Hills area
We are looking for an established Farmington Hills HVAC or mechanical company with a real service base, not a brand-new outfit or a pure new-construction subcontractor.
- Recurring revenue from maintenance agreements or repeat service work
- Roughly $500K+ in annual revenue or SDE (close is fine)
- Licensed, capable technicians who can run calls without the owner
- A solid local reputation and good online standing
- An owner open to a clean handoff or to staying on through a transition
If that sounds like your shop, a confidential conversation is worthwhile even if you are only starting to think about an exit.
What makes selling to Investera different
No broker fees. We are the direct buyer, so none of your proceeds go to a business broker’s commission and no listing agent controls your timeline.
A confidential process. Your techs, your suppliers, and competing shops learn nothing until you decide otherwise. Early discussions are private and covered by an NDA.
Creative deal structures. Depending on your goals we can combine cash at close with a seller note, an earnout on retained service agreements, or a phased handoff of the on-call rotation.
Operators, not a fund. We put a dedicated general manager and dispatch systems in place so the company runs without you. We are buyers who keep and improve businesses, not flippers.
How the process works
The path is straightforward. We begin with a confidential call about your service mix, your team, and what you want out of a transition. If both sides see a fit, we sign an NDA and review financials, your agreement base, and job costing so we can propose a fair range. Next comes a written offer, agreement on structure, a focused diligence window, and a close handled with local counsel. Because we make the decision ourselves, you are not waiting on an investment committee or an outside lender to move things forward.
We will take care of what you built
When we acquire a Farmington Hills HVAC company, our first job is to build the layer of systems and management that lets it run without the founder on every call. That means proper dispatch, documented maintenance schedules, technician development, and a put-in-charge general manager accountable for daily operations. Your technicians keep their positions and their tools, your maintenance customers keep the responsiveness they count on through Michigan winters, and the reputation you earned one no-heat call at a time stays intact. We are stewards of what you built, not a fund looking for a quick resale.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my HVAC business worth in Farmington Hills?
Most solid HVAC and mechanical companies sell in a range of roughly 2.5 to 4 times SDE, with the mix of recurring maintenance agreements, margins, fleet condition, and team depth deciding where you land. That is a typical range for context, not a promise. A confidential review of your numbers is the only way to a real figure.
Will my sale stay confidential?
Yes. Your technicians, suppliers, and competitors hear nothing during early talks. We operate under an NDA and let you decide when and how to tell your team.
Are there any broker or advisory fees?
None. We buy directly, so there is no commission deducted from your proceeds and no brokerage listing fee.
Can I stay on after selling?
If you would like to. Some owners stay for a defined period to transfer relationships and the on-call rotation; others hand off and step away. We shape it to your preference.
How long does the process take?
A clean deal typically runs about 60 to 90 days from first conversation to closing, depending on the state of your records and diligence.
What areas around Farmington Hills do you buy in?
We buy across the surrounding market, including Farmington, Novi, West Bloomfield, Livonia, and Southfield, and throughout Oakland County.
