If you own a landscaping or grounds maintenance company in Fort Worth and you are ready to stop being the person who opens the gate at dawn and closes the books at night, Investera Holdings would like to talk. We are a Michigan family-operated buyer that acquires service businesses and keeps them running under a professional management layer. We are not a broker and not a passive fund. We buy well-run landscaping operations, install strong systems and a dedicated general manager, and keep your crews, your maintenance contracts, and your reputation working across Tarrant County.
Why Fort Worth owners are thinking about selling now
North Texas hands a landscaping company a long, demanding season. Fort Worth’s warm subtropical climate keeps Bermuda and St. Augustine lawns growing hard from spring through late fall, and the punishing summer heat and periodic drought turn irrigation, mowing, and grounds care into year-round work rather than a seasonal side job. Commercial grounds contracts stretch across the HOAs and new subdivisions pushing north toward Keller and Alliance, the corporate campuses and retail centers, and the properties around the Cultural District and Clearfork. That recurring maintenance revenue is exactly what makes a Cowtown grounds company worth holding onto.
It is also a grind to run by yourself. Crews, equipment, routing, seasonal labor, and weather all land on the owner, and the margin between a good route and a chaotic one is thin. Plenty of Fort Worth owners have built genuinely strong commercial maintenance books with loyal clients, but they are worn down from carrying every crew and every complaint. If that is where you are, selling to an operator who will put management and systems around the business can protect your team while giving you the exit you have earned.
Who we buy in the Fort Worth area
We are looking for established Fort Worth landscaping and grounds companies with recurring maintenance contracts and crews that run their routes without the owner on every job.
- Recurring commercial or HOA grounds-maintenance contracts
- Roughly $500K+ in revenue or SDE (close is fine)
- Capable crew leaders who work without constant oversight
- A strong local reputation across Tarrant County
- An owner open to a clean handoff or a short transition
If your company is close to that, do not count yourself out over one number. We would rather talk it through than pass on a good operator over a rough estimate.
What makes selling to Investera different
No broker fees. We are the buyer, so there is no listing commission cutting into your proceeds and no broker deciding who gets to see your business.
A confidential process. Your crews, clients, and competitors hear nothing until you decide to move, so your maintenance contracts and your team stay stable.
Creative deal structures. Mostly cash, seller financing, an earnout, or a staged handoff, we build terms around your goals instead of one rigid formula.
Operators, not a fund. We are a family that runs businesses; we put a general manager and systems in place and keep the company running rather than flipping it.
How the process works
We keep the process simple and quiet. It starts with a confidential call about your contracts, your crews, and what you want from a sale. We sign an NDA, look at basic financials, and if it is a fit we bring a clear offer with real terms. From there we move through a focused diligence period and close. Because we self-fund and do not run an auction, we can go at your pace and avoid the drawn-out, public process that unsettles crews and clients. You deal with our family and team directly from start to finish.
We will take care of what you built
Once we own the business, the goal is a company that runs well without you having to carry it. We add professional systems for routing, scheduling, renewals, and job costing, and we put a dedicated general manager in charge of daily operations so it does not all sit on one person. Your crew leaders keep their jobs and your clients keep their service and their trusted local name. That is how we operate CT Cleaners and Optimal Facility Services, and it is the same stewardship we bring to any landscaping company we acquire in Fort Worth.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my landscaping business worth in Fort Worth?
Most landscaping and grounds companies sell in a typical range of roughly 2.5 to 4 times seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE), with your recurring maintenance contracts, margins, and crew strength deciding where you land. It is a realistic range rather than a promise, and we will show you how we reach a real number for your company.
Will the process stay confidential?
Yes. We begin with an NDA and keep everything private. Your crews, clients, and competitors hear nothing about a potential sale until you decide it is time, which protects the contracts your value depends on.
Are there any broker or listing fees?
No. Because we buy directly, there is no broker commission and no advisory fee coming out of your proceeds. You deal with us, not a middleman.
Can I stay involved after selling?
You are welcome to, but it is not required. Some owners stay through a defined transition to hand off key accounts and vendor relationships; others prefer a clean break. Since we install our own general manager and systems, the company does not depend on you staying.
How long does a typical deal take?
A focused sale often runs about two to three months from first call to close, depending on your records and how quickly you want to move. We self-fund, so we are not waiting on outside financing or a bidding process.
What areas around Fort Worth do you buy in?
We consider landscaping companies across Tarrant County and the wider Metroplex, including Arlington, Grapevine, North Richland Hills, Keller, Mansfield, and Bedford. If you serve the Fort Worth area, we would like to talk.
