Selling Your Property or Facilities Business in the UK

The Backbone of Everyday Life


Property and facilities businesses don’t always grab headlines, but they quietly keep the world running. From lettings agencies to maintenance contractors, cleaning firms to facilities management companies, these businesses underpin the spaces we live, work, and play in.

Why Investors Value These Businesses

Investors are drawn to property and facilities companies because they tend to offer:

Recurring contracts and reliable income

Recession resistance

Scalability across regions

Tangible assets and equipment

Strong client loyalty


What Determines Value

Recurring revenue base (long-term contracts > ad hoc jobs)

Diversified client mix

Profit margins and operational efficiency

Compliance, records, and safety standards

Brand reputation and trust

Northamptonshire Context

Our region is experiencing growth through regeneration projects, logistics hubs, and new housing developments—all of which fuel demand for property and facilities services.

The Emotional Side of Selling

It’s natural to worry about staff, clients, and brand legacy. Many investors seek to grow what you’ve built, not dismantle it.
