What Buyers Look at in Construction.
Construction value turns on your backlog, bonding capacity, the mix of recurring versus project work, and how much the business depends on the owner's relationships.
A visible, contracted backlog gives a buyer confidence in near term revenue.
Bonding capacity and a clean surety history are often a condition of the sale itself.
A mix of recurring service work and project work is generally valued higher than project work alone.
Buyers look closely at how much backlog and client trust depend on you personally.
