Hey everyone, I’m a self-funded searcher based in Los Angeles county, actively searching for a B2B service or manufacturing business in LA or Ventura County (target range $2M–$5M purchase price, $500K–$1M+ SDE). My focus is on commercial services with recurring revenue, such as: -Hardscaping & landscaping -Building services & light trades -Commercial cleaning & maintenance -Manufacturing I have $500K in committed capital, a background in SaaS sales, and full-time bandwidth to operate post-close. What I’ve realized: Some of the best targets require CSLB licenses or operational experience I don’t personally have. So I’m now actively looking for: -A licensed equity partner (e.g., B, C-33, C-61, D-12, etc.) -Operator with trade/service experience who wants to co-own and help run the business -Strategic investor/advisor open to a weekly cadence to help guide early operations I’m ready to do the heavy lifting, but truthfully, it’s no fun to celebrate the wins or weather the storms alone. If you’re looking for something meaningful to build together, let’s connect.

Hi ^redacted‌ I am based in Los Angeles. While I am not a licensed GC, I do advise manufacturing firms in California on the environmental compliance/regulatory side of things, and am working with a founder right now to address some of the compliance items that was overlooked during the diligence process. Happy to connect --
