Investera Holdings is a Michigan, family-operated company that buys HVAC and mechanical businesses and keeps them running for the long term. We are operators and buyers, not a broker taking a commission and not a passive fund looking for a quick flip. White Plains sits in a humid-continental climate that swings from Nor’easter winters to hot, sticky summers, which means the offices, apartment towers, and medical buildings across the city lean hard on heating and cooling year round. When we acquire an HVAC company, we put a dedicated general manager and a capable back-office team in place so dispatch, service agreements, and installs run on systems rather than on the owner personally. If you have built a solid mechanical business here, we want to keep it strong, keep your technicians working, and carry your reputation forward.
Why White Plains owners are thinking about selling now
White Plains has an unusually demanding building stock for its size. The downtown skyline is full of Class A office towers and residential high-rises, the corporate corridors along Westchester Avenue carry large rooftop and chiller loads, and White Plains Hospital and its surrounding medical offices need precise, uninterrupted climate control. Summers bring heavy cooling demand and emergency calls, while cold winters keep boilers, heat pumps, and rooftop units in constant service. An HVAC company with recurring maintenance agreements and a skilled crew is a real asset in this market, and the buildings here reward contractors who can respond fast and document their work.
Meanwhile, many mechanical business owners in Westchester are reaching the point where the physical grind and the constant on-call pressure wear on them, even as skilled technicians get harder to hire and hold. That combination makes it a natural moment to consider a sale, but not to a broker who will collect a fee and hand your service base to the highest bidder. Investera buys to operate: we keep your maintenance contracts intact, add the management layer your dispatchers and lead techs deserve, and make sure a White Plains handoff protects both your customers and your crew.
Who we buy in the White Plains area
We are not hunting for a distressed shop to strip down. We look for well-run White Plains HVAC and mechanical companies with steady customers and a team that already delivers quality work, where an operator can add structure and free the founder to move on.
- Recurring service agreements or repeat commercial work
- Roughly $500K+ in revenue or SDE (close is fine)
- Skilled, licensed technicians and a capable lead
- Trusted reputation across White Plains and Westchester
- Owner open to a clean handoff or a short stay-on
If that sounds like your company, it is worth a conversation even if you are only starting to think about the future. We would rather get to know each other early than push anyone toward a deal before they are ready.
What makes selling to Investera different
No broker fees. We are the direct buyer, so no listing commission is skimmed off your proceeds and no third party stands between us and a fair deal.
A confidential process. Your technicians, your service customers, and rival contractors in Westchester learn nothing until you choose to tell them; early talks stay private.
Creative deal structures. Whether you want cash at close, a seller note, an earn-out tied to the service base, or a staged exit, we build the terms around your goals.
Operators, not a fund. A family that already runs service companies like CT Cleaners and Optimal Facility Services will own this, not investors racing a fund clock to an exit.
How the process works
We keep things straightforward and low-pressure. It begins with a confidential call about your company, your team, and what you want after a sale. If it feels like a fit, we sign an NDA and review basic financials along with a look at your service agreements and technician roster. We then bring you a clear offer and a practical transition plan, and if the terms work we head toward a clean close on a schedule that fits your life. An early conversation commits you to nothing, and none of it becomes public.
We will take care of what you built
After a sale, our aim is stability for your customers and your crew. We keep your technicians, honor your service agreements, and install a dedicated general manager so the company stops depending on the owner answering every emergency call. The name your customers in White Plains trust stays in place, because that trust is a core part of what we are acquiring. We invest in dispatch systems, maintenance-agreement management, and technician development so the business can serve its accounts better and grow steadily, while the people who built it are treated fairly.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my HVAC business worth in White Plains?
As a rough guide, HVAC and mechanical companies commonly sell in the range of about 2.5x to 4x SDE (seller’s discretionary earnings), influenced by your recurring maintenance base, margins, licensing, and technician depth. A strong book of service agreements pushes toward the top of that range. It is a typical range rather than a promise, and we are happy to review your actual numbers with you.
Will my sale stay confidential?
Yes. We treat early discussions as private and put an NDA in place before reviewing anything sensitive. Your technicians, your customers, and other contractors in Westchester hear nothing until you are ready.
Are there any broker or advisor fees?
None. Investera is the buyer, not a broker, so there is no sales commission or advisory fee taken out of your proceeds. What we agree on is what you keep.
Can I stay involved after selling?
That is up to you. Some owners want a clean handoff with a brief transition, while others stay on for a set period to introduce accounts and mentor the new general manager. We will shape it around what you prefer.
How long does the process take?
With a motivated seller, a focused process often takes a few months from first call to closing. We can adjust the pace, and we will never pressure you into a timeline that does not suit you.
What areas around White Plains do you buy in?
We consider the whole region, including Scarsdale, Harrison, Greenburgh, Rye, and Elmsford, along with the wider Westchester market. If your work centers on or near White Plains, we would like to hear from you.
