Sell the truck, keep the money, and take 10% of the gross off of your accounts?

40k sounds cheap.

You can always offer more if you feel that is what the company is worth :thumbsup:

The thing about selling a contracting business is that it is only worth what someone else is willing to pay.....the owner may have already figured this out and has basically come up with a FMV for his tangible assets to ensure a quick sale for his exit strategy.

What I see in a small shop is that the customer base wants the guy they have been using.
This why I like to have an owner stay around and service his accounts with the house keeping 10% of his calls and the house paying the old owner 10% of any business on his house accounts.
You can buy a customer list but if, one of the key contacts moves or retires, good chance that account is gone too.
I bought a business from someone and he forgot to tell me that they were changing the type of credentials needed for the work. I made a little money but still think the guy was a turd to do that.
