Enrollment and waitlists, licensing and compliance, teacher or staff retention, and lease and capacity drive value. Recurring tuition and long waitlists reduce risk.
A listing does not go live on ExitToBuy until its core numbers are checked: reported revenue and earnings, ownership and transferability, and whether the deal is likely to qualify for SBA 7(a) financing. Escrow is part of every transaction, and financing can be arranged inside the deal.
