If you own a pest control company in Plano and have started to think about your next move, Investera Holdings is worth a conversation. We are a Michigan family-operated company that buys and keeps running service businesses, not a broker looking for a listing and not a passive fund. We buy one company at a time, then install strong systems and a professional management layer, a dedicated general manager and put-in-charge team, so the business runs day to day without the owner riding every route. Recurring-service operations are exactly what our family runs; our own CT Cleaners and Optimal Facility Services live on the same route-based, repeat-customer model that a pest control company depends on, so we understand how you build and keep a book of business.
Why Plano owners are thinking about selling now
North Texas is prime territory for pest pressure, which is what makes a Plano pest control company so durable. The region’s humid subtropical climate and long, hot summers keep mosquitoes, fire ants, and rodents active for much of the year, while the Blackland Prairie’s expansive clay soil creates classic conditions for subterranean termites, one of the most persistent and costly threats to homes here. Add scorpions, roaches, and the ordinary pests that come with a fast-growing, densely built suburb of homes, HOAs, restaurants, and offices around Legacy West and the tollway corridors, and you get demand that recurs quarterly and rarely disappears. A company with a strong base of recurring service agreements in this market holds exactly the kind of predictable revenue buyers prize.
Running it well, though, takes a toll. Licensed, reliable technicians are hard to find and keep, chemical and vehicle costs move, and the schedule stays full through the warm months when the phones ring nonstop. Many owners are still the top salesperson, the route filler, and the person handling every callback, which makes it hard to step away even when the business is healthy. If you have built real recurring revenue and a loyal customer base but you are ready to stop being the bottleneck, this is a sound time to talk about what a transition could look like.
Who we buy in the Plano area
We do not pursue every pest control company in the area. We look for businesses with solid fundamentals and a real reputation for keeping customers protected and renewing. Here is the general profile.
- Recurring revenue from quarterly or annual service agreements
- Roughly $500K or more in annual revenue or SDE (close is fine)
- Licensed technicians and a lead who can run routes without you
- A trusted reputation with Plano-area homeowners or businesses
- An owner open to a clean handoff or staying on for a defined period
If that broadly fits your company, we would love to talk. And if one element is not a perfect match, reach out anyway. We would rather learn the full story than rule you out over a single detail.
What makes selling to Investera different
No broker fees. Because we buy directly, there is no listing commission and no intermediary taking a slice. The value we agree on is the value that reaches you.
A confidential process. Your technicians, your customers, and your competitors hear nothing until you decide the moment is right. The early stages stay entirely private.
Creative deal structures. Whether you want a clean cash exit, a phased handoff, ongoing pay, or a stake in the future, we design the deal around your goals rather than a template.
Operators, not a fund. We are a family that runs service companies ourselves. We keep your name, your team, and your accounts, and we take on running the business, not managing it as a line in a portfolio.
How the process works
We keep things simple and confidential. It starts with a relaxed call to understand your company and what you want from a sale. If we both see a fit, we sign an NDA and review the essentials, financials, your service-agreement base, and how your technicians and routes are structured. Then we bring you a clear, fair offer and explain exactly how it would work. Since we are the actual buyer and not a broker shopping you around, we can match your timeline, answer your questions directly, and avoid the runaround of being handed from one party to the next.
We will take care of what you built
When we buy a Plano pest control company, we are committing to it for the long term. Your technicians keep their jobs and their routes, your customers keep the company they trust to keep their homes and businesses protected, and the reputation you built stays intact. What we add is the operating structure and a dedicated general manager so the business no longer depends on the owner working every route and every callback. That is how the company you built defending North Texas properties keeps serving its customers, and keeps supporting your people, well into the future.

Frequently asked questions
How much is my pest control business worth in Plano?
Pest control companies typically sell for about 2.5 to 4 times SDE (seller’s discretionary earnings). Where you land in that range depends on how much of your revenue comes from recurring service agreements, your customer retention and margins, the strength of your technician team, and how well the business runs without you. Treat that as a realistic guide rather than a promise; once we see your numbers, we can talk through a specific figure.
Will you keep this confidential?
Yes, always. We sign a mutual NDA before reviewing anything sensitive, and nothing reaches your technicians, customers, or competitors until you decide the time is right to share it.
Do you charge any broker fees or commissions?
No. We are the direct buyer, so there are no listing fees, no commissions, and no third parties taking a percentage. What we agree to pay is what you receive.
Can I stay involved after the sale?
Yes, if you would like to. Some owners transition out over a few weeks; others stay on to mentor technicians, keep selling, or manage a part of the business. We will build a role, or a clean exit, around your preference.
How long does the whole process take?
For a straightforward deal, first call to close is often around 30 to 90 days. We can move faster if you are ready or take it slower if you need room to consider your options.
What areas around Plano do you buy in?
We buy across Collin County and the broader North Dallas market, including Frisco, McKinney, Allen, Richardson, Wylie, and Murphy. If your pest control company serves the area from Plano, we want to hear from you.
