How to Sell a Construction Company in 2025: 3 Challenges and Solutions
Challenge 1:
Equipment Valuation and Asset Management
Construction businesses often have a large proportion of their value tied up in specialized equipment, from bulldozers to backhoes. Accurately valuing this machinery can be a challenge, especially if the equipment varies widely in condition or usage history. This is true of general contractors, subcontractors, industrial, and other speciality contractors.
Unbroker Solution:
Our experts facilitate a comprehensive audit of your equipment, factoring in current market value, depreciation, and maintenance history. We then provide a detailed valuation report that supports your asking price, making it easy to justify during negotiations.
Challenge 2:
Navigating Licensing, Permits, and Certifications
Construction businesses are subject to various local, state, and federal regulations, depending on the types of projects they handle. Transferring or updating licenses, permits, and certifications can cause delays if not properly managed.
Unbroker Solution:
We work with you to ensure all licenses and permits are up-to-date before listing your business. From contractor licenses to specialty certifications, we handle the legal details to prevent any hiccups during the sale process.
Challenge 3:
Managing Project Accounting and Employee Transitions
Buyers often want to know what projects are in the pipeline and whether the existing team will stay on board. Gaps in the project backlog or an uncertain team transition can make your business less appealing.
Unbroker Solution:
We help you create a clear transition plan that includes retaining key staff and transferring ongoing projects smoothly. We also work with you to present your project pipeline in a way that adds value, ensuring buyers see the full potential of your business.
