Additional Details

Facilities

This 3-year-old operation is managed by a full-time owner and a part-time administrative staffer, both of whom are fluent in Mandarin Chinese. The holds over $300k in tenant deposits that will transfer in the sale. All of the business’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and goodwill will be included in the sale. (Home Based)

Competition

While the property management space is a competitive one, this firm has carved out a unique niche with its software, geographic and demographic / foreign client focus, and the residential real estate sale pipeline that the company has cultivate to provide its owner a significant long-term sustainable competitive advantage when it comes to obtaining new seller listings.

Growth & Expansion

New operators will likely want to continue in the same vein that current management has but go deeper in terms of geographic concentration and wider in terms of demographic focus. While niche market specialization has proven advantageous, the firm’s model has provided it a competitive advantage that may be leveraged and scaled. The company’s financials do not indicate the 5-6 annual home sales that the owner enjoys sales commissions on, given that any real estate company associated with the property management firm tends to become the default option for home sale. Similarly, the company outsources maintenance and repair services, which could be taken in-house to become a substantial revenue generator.
