Ranking The Best Businesses To Buy And Sell (2026)

Added: 2026-05-26

[00:00:00]Best businesses to buy and sell. Car wash. I'd say that's F tier. Cash business, it's got lots of staff, one landlord nightmare. Leave it to the money launders. Car dealership.

[00:00:09]>> E tier. Capital heavy, thin margins, I'd pass on that one.

[00:00:12]>> Recruitment. Aha. E tier. Used to be great, but it's an outdated business model. I should know because I built two of them, both with over 100 million in sales. There's a good reason I sold them both.

[00:00:21]>> Estate agency. I'd say that's C tier.

[00:00:23]It's kind of feast or famine. You're only one stamp duty hike away from a bad year. Pharmacy. B tier. Solid business, but Amazon's coming for you.

[00:00:31]>> Law firm. B tier. I think it's a license to print money, but don't make the mistake becoming a lawyer yourself.

[00:00:36]>> Accounting firm. C tier. It's a recurring revenue, often loyal clients, and they understand money. Be careful of the earnout retention, though.

[00:00:43]>> Medical practice. A tier. Lots of repeat earnings, most of your clients don't leave, and most of them don't die.

[00:00:49]>> Letting agency. A tier. Love these businesses. Landlords never sleep, and neither does the fee income. Dental practice. S tier. Nobody shops around for a cheaper dentist when you've got toothache.
