Provo Business Broker Serving Utah County
Zion Business Brokers helps Provo and Orem owners sell their businesses confidentially and at maximum value, with no upfront fees and a 100% success-based model.
Why Utah County Is Different
Provo anchors one of the fastest growing business markets in the country. Between BYU, the Silicon Slopes corridor along I-15, and a young, fast-expanding population, buyers are actively hunting for established Provo companies. But Utah County runs on service and trades businesses, and that is where the most useful finding sits. Two companies in the same trade, doing the same revenue, can be worth very different numbers. The variable is whether the revenue is contracted.
What Provo and Orem Businesses Sell For
HVAC, plumbing and electrical trade at 3 to 4 times seller's discretionary earnings. An HVAC company with signed maintenance agreements is worth meaningfully more than one waiting for the phone to ring. Roofing runs 3 to 4 times, where employed crews beat subcontractors. Landscaping runs 3 to 4 times with off-season revenue. Window cleaning trades around 2 times for residential routes and 3 to 4 for contracted commercial work. Medical billing reaches 4 to 10 times. Retail and construction run 2 to 3 times.
How We Help Provo Owners
Free confidential business valuation using SDE and real market comps from completed Utah sales. Preparation of financials and documentation before buyers see them. Anonymous marketing protected by NDAs. Financially vetted buyers only. Negotiation, due diligence and closing support alongside your attorney and CPA. Our 89% closing rate and 96% average list-to-sale price ratio come from disciplined preparation and buyer competition.
Start Two to Three Years Before You Sell
SBA lenders want two to three years of clean, consistent tax returns supporting the earnings you are selling on, and that timeline cannot be compressed. Most Utah County businesses take about 9 months from listing to close. Given how many Utah County trades businesses were founded in the 1990s and early 2000s, a lot of owners are hitting that window right now without realizing it.
