Investera Holdings is a Michigan family-operated company that buys landscaping and grounds-maintenance businesses and keeps them running. We are operators and buyers, not brokers and not a passive fund. When we acquire a Dallas landscaping company, we bring strong systems and a dedicated general manager so routes, crews and accounts keep running after the owner steps back. Our portfolio, including CT Cleaners and Optimal Facility Services, shows we run what we buy for the long haul.
Why Dallas owners are thinking about selling now
Dallas gives landscaping companies an unusually long, demanding season. Warm weather stretches across much of the year, so mowing, bedwork and irrigation service run far longer than in most of the country, while the region’s tough blackland clay soil, summer drought, watering restrictions and thirsty St. Augustine lawns keep commercial and HOA clients dependent on professionals who know how to keep grounds green. Add spring hail and storm cleanup and steady fall work, and a well-run book of recurring commercial and community accounts across the metro is a resilient, valuable asset.
That long season and steady demand are exactly why now is a sensible time for an owner to weigh a sale. Landscaping is physically punishing to run, labor is seasonal and hard to hold, and equipment, fuel and scheduling pressures all funnel back to you. Selling while your maintenance contracts are renewing and your reputation is strong lets you capture the value you built rather than facing another full season of dawn starts and crew shortages. We step in with management systems so your clients keep the same reliable grounds care under the name they already know.
Who we buy in the Dallas area
We are looking for established Dallas-area landscaping and grounds companies with recurring maintenance revenue and crews who already do great work.
- Recurring maintenance or contract revenue, ideally commercial or HOA accounts
- Around $500K+ in annual revenue or seller’s discretionary earnings (close is fine)
- Capable crew leaders and staff who can keep the routes running
- A strong local reputation and loyal, renewing clients
- An owner open to a clean handoff or staying on through the season
If that fits your company, a short confidential call costs nothing and gives you a real read on its value.
What makes selling to Investera different
No broker fees. You deal directly with the family that will own and operate your Dallas landscaping company, so no broker commission is taken from your proceeds.
A confidential process. Your crews, your commercial and HOA clients and your competitors hear nothing until you choose to move forward; early talks stay private.
Creative deal structures. Cash at close, seller financing, an earnout on maintenance renewals or a phased handoff, we shape terms to fit your goals.
Operators, not a fund. We are not backed by outside investors looking to resell; we buy your grounds business to keep it, run it and grow the route density you built.
How the process works
Our process is simple and easy on your schedule. It starts with a private call about your accounts, your crews and what you want out of a sale. If there’s a fit, we sign a mutual confidentiality agreement and review your financials and contract base. We then bring you a clear, straightforward offer, and if you accept, we handle diligence and closing while you keep running your routes. Most owners are surprised how few people ever need to know.
We will take care of what you built
After closing, our priority is protecting what you built. We put a dedicated general manager and reliable systems in place: route optimization, seasonal scheduling, equipment upkeep, contract renewals and steady crew pay. Your people keep their jobs, your clients keep their grounds looking sharp, and your name can stay on the trucks. We grow by winning more recurring maintenance work across Dallas, never by shortchanging the quality that earned your reputation.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my landscaping business worth in Dallas?
Most healthy landscaping and grounds companies sell in a range of roughly 2.5x to 4x seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE). Your position depends on how much revenue is recurring maintenance versus one-off installs, your margins, and how well the routes run without you. It’s a typical range rather than a guarantee, and we give you a specific number after a private look at your books.
Will my sale stay confidential?
Yes. Confidentiality is core to how we work. Your crews, clients and competitors hear nothing until you decide to proceed, and we sign a mutual non-disclosure agreement before reviewing any details.
Do you charge broker fees or commissions?
No. We are the buyer, not a broker, so there is no commission or success fee coming out of your proceeds. You work directly with our family.
Can I stay involved after selling?
If you’d like to. Some owners want a clean break after a short handoff; others stay through a season to transition accounts. We build it around what works for you.
How long does the process usually take?
With financials in order, a straightforward landscaping deal often closes in about 60 to 90 days from first conversation. We can move faster or slower to fit you.
What areas around Dallas do you buy in?
We buy across Dallas County and the greater metro, including Irving, Garland, Mesquite, Richardson, Carrollton and Grand Prairie, as well as the wider DFW area.
