How many businesses are for sale in Texas?
Currently, there are approximately 3,300 businesses for sale in Texas. However, it is worth noting that many are listed 'blindly' meaning detailed information may only be revealed during the inquiry process.

The bulk of businesses available for sale in Texas are concentrated in key urban centers. Here are the 10 individual cities with the highest number of businesses for sale, offering a diverse range of opportunities for potential buyers:

These cities not only reflect the economic diversity of Texas but also highlight where demand and growth potential are most concentrated. Prospective buyers should consider these locales as starting points in their search for the right business opportunity. Keep in mind, not all businesses for sale in the above cities will be listed at the city level. To maintain confidentiality, many only list the county or state, which makes them a little more difficult to find.

What are the average valuation multiples in Texas?
On average, businesses in Texas are being sold for an earnings multiple of 2.3 (related to the asking price), and a revenue multiple of 0.5. This suggests for every dollar in earnings or revenue, respectively, the asking price reflects these multiples.
How can Texas business owners sell their own businesses?

Some business owners choose to list the business directly and manage the process on their own. Remember, as the process is multifaceted, seeking professional assistance is generally advised.
