Los Angeles County, California
High-Revenue Education Business with Proven Demand
$ 1,800,000
This offering presents a rare opportunity to acquire a large scale, well established education business with decades of operating history, strong revenue, and a structure that aligns with current buyer and lender expectations. The business has been recently repriced to reflect market reality, positioning it squarely in the execution zone for experienced operators seeking scale, stability, and growth without the capital burden of real estate ownership. This is a proven education platform with real infrastructure and sustained demand. The operation serves a broad age range, supporting long student tenure and consistent enrollment. Annual revenue exceeds $2.0M, driven primarily by private pay tuition. Established systems, curriculum, and staffing are already in place, allowing a buyer to step into operations with minimal disruption. The facility is purpose built for educational use and is secured by a long term lease that provides operational stability while preserving capital for program growth and margin expansion. Buyers can focus resources on optimizing enrollment, improving efficiencies, and enhancing offerings rather than owning real estate. From a financial perspective, the business offers clear add back and normalization potential, particularly related to owner compensation and discretionary expenses. With staffing and infrastructure already scaled, incremental enrollment has a meaningful impact on profitability. This opportunity is best suited for experienced education operators, Montessori platforms, and multi site groups seeking a durable California presence. First time operators may find the scale demanding, while seasoned buyers will recognize the leverage and upside immediately. The seller is realistic, motivated, and focused on a clean, professional transaction. Pricing and structure are aligned with current SBA and conventional financing expectations for qualified buyers. Comprehensive financials, lease details, enrollment data, and operational information are available upon execution of a confidential NDA. Qualified buyers are encouraged to review the materials and move directly toward LOI and purchase agreement discussions. Serious inquiries only.

Los Angeles County, California
Licensed Preschool & RE | Affluent Demographics | SBA Eligible
$ 2,700,000
Description A rare opportunity to acquire both the business and real estate of a licensed preschool and early childhood education facility in one of Southern California’s most affluent, family-oriented communities. With nearly 90 licensed slots, prime demographics, and an irreplaceable location, this offering presents substantial upside for operators, investors, and education groups seeking scale in a high-demand market.. Property Overview The facility features more than 4,500 square feet of interior space situated on over half an acre, with multiple classrooms, administrative offices, restrooms, and well-designed outdoor play areas. The site is purpose-built for early education and meets licensing requirements, with zoning that allows for educational use and flexibility for other commercial applications. The property’s visibility, accessibility, and presence in a land-constrained market make it highly attractive to both operators and investors. Business Overview This preschool has served the local community for more than two decades, earning a trusted reputation and strong online reviews. Current operations run below the licensed capacity, which provides a clear opportunity for new ownership to expand enrollment and significantly increase revenues. The combination of brand goodwill, established licensing, and operational infrastructure offers a strong foundation for a buyer to build upon. Growth Potential * Enrollment Expansion: With capacity for nearly 90 children, enrollment growth represents the most immediate opportunity to boost gross revenue by 40–50%. * Tuition Optimization: Current rates can be aligned with prevailing market benchmarks in this affluent trade area, increasing per-child revenue. * Program Enhancements: Demand supports the introduction of enrichment programs such as STEM, arts, music, language, and before/after school care. * Facility Upgrades: Targeted investments in classrooms, playgrounds, and curb appeal could modernize the facility and attract premium-paying families. * Subsidy Participation: Increasing participation in California child care subsidy programs (CSPP, CCTR, CACFP) could generate additional, stable revenue streams. Investment Highlights * Licensed capacity for nearly 90 children. * Purpose-built 4,500+ SF facility on a 0.56-acre parcel. * Over 20 years of continuous operation with strong community reputation. * Prime demographics with affluent, dual-income households and high educational spending. * Zoning allows educational use with potential for broader commercial applications. * Business and real estate offered together, eligible for SBA 7(a) or conventional financing. * Attractive to regional operators, national preschool chains, and private equity groups. Why This Opportunity Licensed preschool and child care facilities paired with real estate rarely come to market in this type of high-barrier-to-entry, affluent location. The combination of prime demographics, long-standing community trust, and a valuable license base creates immediate appeal, while the upside opportunities offer a compelling investment thesis. Next Steps Due to the confidential nature of this offering, further details—including financial performance, photos, videos, and a comprehensive offering memorandum—are available only upon execution of a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Qualified buyers will have the opportunity to review full business and property information and discuss financing structures. This is a unique chance to acquire a preschool and real estate package with scale, upside, and long-term value in one of Southern California’s most desirable education markets.

Flight Training And Touring Company - Helicopter & Fixed Wing
$ 1,800,000
CF : $ 493,000
Premier Accredited Helicopter Flight School, Tour, Aerial Media & Charter Business. FIXED WING COMING Q1 2026! Founded in 2014 by two pilots, a premier Southern CA helicopter flight training school and helicopter tour company. Company is committed to providing the highest level of professionalism and safety for all visitors looking to take helicopter training classes, helicopter tours, aerial media, charter flights, gender reveals, City events, weddings, Aircraft management or finding a Helicopter Ride in So CA. Located at the best helicopter training airport in LA. Partnership separation and absentee ownership is motivating the sale. The sellers have done the heavy lifting over more than a decade and have other interests and responsibilities. At this time, though the business is quite profitable and positioned for significant growth, its physical assets and certifications are valued as much or more than the cash flow (from a replacement vs commercial lender perspective). That said, after an uncontrollable and very unfortunate industry maintenance issue in 2023, 2024 and 2025 cash flow has caught up. Sellers are motivated but the business is growing, the fiscal reality is comfortable, and the future is bright. This is an established good business with a solid team in place. Regardless, the buyer will need to be well capitalized and/or have immediate experience and significant cash available for continued investment to grow. Physical Assets to be sold together: Two owned R44 Helicopters and two R22…along with a 3 yr old full motion flight simulator – estimated value at $1,400,000. There is also a managed R44 currently flying and a managed Cabri pending overhaul since 11/25. The newly acquired leased Cessna 172 TAA is in the air and will be ready for a full schedule of flight training in Q1 2026. FAA Part 135 (Charter Full certificate). The Part 135 Full Certificate is the highest level and enables flexibility like traveling interstate. Part 61/141 Flight School). Chief Pilot, Director of Operations and Director of Maintenance positions are required to maintain the full certificate. Part 91 LOA for air tours. SEVIS certification received effective 6/1/23 (student exchange visitor program which will enable company to issue i20 and M1 Visas). This represents a very significant growth opportunity into the future. Certificate and Certifications – estimated value $700,000. Cut the line! These certifications and certificates take many years (6-8) to secure and newcomers to the 141-flight school side can’t even apply until business has been operational for 2 years. Rare Dual Rating in industry offers reduced requirements for pilot licensing with multiple new revenue streams and additional competitive advantage beginning 2026. Nwe Hanger 2024: Investment $100,000. Helicopter parts: estimated value $50,000 Various other physical assets: 7- person golf cart, mobile fuel and pumping system and other hanger equipment. Estimated value. $10,000 Hanger FFE: estimated value $25,000. Company is the ONLY operator in California to have the Guimbal G2 Cabri advanced trainer and the only school in the So. CA area to have an FAA accredited helicopter flight training device (simulator). Zero accidents on record. 100% safety record. All processes and systems (including SMS safety) are fully documented. Training manuals exist for every role. No single employee “IS” the company. CEO/Chief Pilot owners have been largely absentee but will be available as needed part-time to assist transition. The CEO may be available after the sale in a part-time advisory capacity. The Chief Pilot will assist with a transition, but there must be a clear path for complete exit in a reasonable timeframe. Current Staff: Operations Manager, Assistant Ops, Front Desk Admin, 4 FT, 2 PT plus new Fixed Wing Instructor/Pilot, 2 owners mostly absentee owners (both Pilots). The critical gap you will need to fill is that of Chief Pilot. Currently the Chief Pilot wishes to exit the business following a reasonable transition period. She also serves as the Chief Instructor. Current revenue streams: Flight Training, Charter, Tours, Aerial Photography and videography, Gender Reveal (first in the country to make it into a viable commercial product), Aircraft Management. Events and ground-based training facilitated by 4500 sqft hanger and flight simulator; industry galas, company team building, kids parties and weddings. Marketing: Social Media (Largest flight school Instagram in LA and proven income generator), Facebook, Youtube, Tiktok, LinkedIn SEO, Ad Campaigns, Publications, Website, Trip Advisor, Fare Harbor (on-line sales) and more…LA Helicopters.com, Gifting website, exclusive supplier to www.luxuryhelicoptertours.com, 100 5 star yelp reviews, top of page SEO on many relevant keywords. Significant investment and operational efficiencies have set the next owner operator up for accelerated growth in revenue and earnings beyond 2024. Capital investment in 2021 & 2022 resulted in owned vs. leased helicopters, though there is 1 managed r44 and 1 managed Cabri in the 2025 mix. The new Cessna 172 TAA is leased. The change in strategy resulted in significant annual expense reduction and the new hanger and flight simulator are adding income streams in general and opportunities to generate income when the weather isn’t appropriate for flying. The Fixed Wing addition will not only enable a new revenue stream but Dual Rating benefits to pilots and in turn the business. Bring or earn your pilot license, hire more pilots, or train and employ them to grow the business to its potential. Revenue History: 2018 $1.2, 2019 $1.3M, 2020 $1M and 2021 $1.68M, 2022 $1.36M, 2023 $1.12M, 2024 $1.32M, 2025 Jan-Sept $1,054k. 2024 SDE $493K. SBA is not possible without a very substantial down payment, experience, and US Citizenship. Monthly lease on NEW hanger: $6300 (Including helipads). Cash free/debt free. Price firm: $1,800,000.

K-12 Textbook Wholesaler
Call/Email
CF : $ 1,100,000
Accepting indications of interest until January 30, 2026. This is a well-established wholesaler of quality, pre-owned affordable textbooks to K-12 public schools, private schools, school districts, and charter schools everywhere. The fundamentals of the pre-owned textbook business are strong. They're less expensive: a big plus for districts and schools (public and private) impacted by budget cuts. They're required: schools teach an established curriculum for 5-10 years, which means using a consistent set of textbooks over a long period of time. Several states even have laws requiring students have access to two sets of textbooks: one at home and one in-class (or on campus). Schools are repeat business: every year, a new class of kids adds wear, tear, and destruction to last year’s books. Finally, some schools simply prefer the material as presented by older textbooks. Over the last 20+ years, the company has built a robust customer database of 750+ schools and districts and currently owns and operates a warehouse with 110,000+ textbooks in stock. The business sells both wholesale direct and via e-commerce platforms (85%/15% split). The business enjoys outstanding cash flow and profitability in this strongly seasonal business (May through October). For those interested in purchasing real estate, the warehouse is also available to purchase, and was recently appraised at $2.49M. This opportunity that checks all the boxes: outstanding profitability, repeat customers, huge growth potential, is recession resistant, has repeat business, and the opportunity to acquire ideally suited real estate. Next Steps We are currently accepting Indications of Interest (IOIs). To qualify, buyers must provide a Buyer Bio / Capability Sheet and Proof of Funds. Must have the capacity and experience to smoothly and efficiently execute the transaction process; busy season begins mid-May. No absentee investors, please. The ideal buyer will have the experience to build a sales team and implement systems at scale to take the business to the next level. Complete the contact form to speak to the listing broker, execute an NDA, and receive the information package.
