We're a Sydney couple looking to buy
an established business and run it ourselves.

Two decades of helping other people's businesses grow. Now we'd like to do it for one of our own.

Who we are

Two owners, not a fund.

We're a Sydney couple stepping out of Management Consulting to put twenty years of growing other people's businesses - Kate at Kearney, Marek at Kearney and GNG Partners, working with companies across Australia, Europe and Asia. Now we are ready to grow one of our own.

After a decade of handing over recommendations and walking away, we want to stay and see it through. We live in Sydney, our child is growing up here, and we're looking for a business to spend the next decades building.

What we're looking for

Location — Greater Sydney

Three groups of service businesses we are looking for.

Property & Strata Management

  • Strata Management
  • Property Management
  • Commercial Property and Facilities Management

Property Maintenance & Compliance

  • Pest Control
  • Fire Safety Inspection
  • Commercial Cleaning

Business Services

  • Commercial Equipment Servicing
  • Commercial Laundry
  • Security

Business profile

  • Annual EBITDA in the range of A$400,000 – A$650,000
  • At least 3 years of trading history, consistently profitable
  • High proportion of recurring revenue
  • Stable and diversified customer base
  • Low dependency on the current owner

If you're close but not an exact match, we'd still like to hear from you.

Why us

What handing over to us would look like.

We build on what you've established

You and your team know your trade better than we do. We're coming to learn it from you, keep doing what already works, and maintain your heritage.

We're buying to run it ourselves

Instead of investing, we're buying a business to operate hands-on, day to day, working alongside your team. You'd be handing over to owners who show up, not to a portfolio.

We know how to grow businesses

Over twenty years of combined experience growing businesses with customer in mind - understanding real customer behavior and addressing their needs, while delivering value to business. Now focusing on one business instead of many.
