Hey everyone! I'm very excited to join the community. After quitting my job a year ago, I was actively looking to buy a business, but I quickly realized that finding off-market deals was extremely manual and time consuming. Over the past few months, I’ve been building an acquisition intelligence system that scrapes multiple public sources (BBB, Google Maps, licensing boards, sunbiz, complaint data, etc.) and scores companies to look for early exit signals, as well as positive signals (growth, revenue, ...) Last week I ran a full scan on 500+ Florida HVAC businesses to test some of the signals. It surfaced a Top 20 list of companies most likely to sell in the next 6-12 months based on patterns like: - owner disengagement - stalled growth - complaint/review trends - aging ownership - licensing issues I’m not selling anything, just looking for experienced eyes to tell me which signals actually match real seller behavior or what I’m missing. If anyone wants to take a look, DM me and I’ll share the Top 20 report. I can also run the same scan for other industries if that’s more relevant to your world. Would love to hear how you all think about “sell-side signals” in the real world. Thanks all!
