Businesses $250K – $1M for Sale
Established small businesses and commercial properties priced between $250,000 and $1 million in Greater Vancouver. The middle-market segment with proven cash flow and growth runway.
The $250,000 to $1,000,000 range is the sweet spot for owner-operators buying their first or second business in Metro Vancouver. It is large enough to include established, cash-flowing operations — restaurants, service franchises, distribution, and light manufacturing — yet still within reach of an individual buyer combining savings, a partner, and small-business financing. At this level you are buying a proven track record rather than a startup gamble, but diligence matters more than ever: verified financials, transferable lease terms, and a clear picture of how dependent the business is on its current owner. We help buyers in this band compare opportunities on the numbers that actually predict success, structure offers that protect the deposit, and line up financing before writing an offer so you can move quickly when the right business appears.
What this range buys
This is the deepest, most active tier of the Metro Vancouver market — established businesses with real revenue, priced for individual buyers rather than institutions.
- Food & beverage: Independent restaurants, cafes, and established quick-service locations with a track record.
- Service & franchise: Proven franchise units and owner-operated service businesses with recurring customers.
- Light industrial: Small distribution, trades, and manufacturing operations, sometimes with equipment included.
- Retail: Neighbourhood retail with steady foot traffic and transferable leases.
What we check before you offer
A proven business still needs real diligence — we vet each opportunity on the factors that decide whether it keeps performing after the sale.
- Verified financials: Tax-backed revenue and margins, not just a seller's summary.
- Lease & tenure: Remaining term, renewal options, and assignability to a new owner.
- Owner dependence: How much of the revenue walks out the door with the current owner.
- Financing fit: Deal structures lenders will support at this size, lined up before you write.
