If you are thinking about selling your MSP in New York, you are likely navigating one of the most significant financial decisions of your life. Most advisors will tell you about the process. Our founder has lived it, as a seller, a buyer, and a founder who had to figure out what came next.
Buyers evaluate an MSP on the quality of its recurring revenue before anything else: how contracts are written, how long clients have stayed, and how much of the monthly base is truly committed versus month-to-month goodwill. From there they dig into technician dependency, client concentration, the tooling stack, and whether documentation exists beneath the owner's head. An MSP where the founder is still the senior engineer, the sales team, and the escalation point of last resort is worth meaningfully less than one that runs on process, and buyers price that difference without sentiment. New York MSPs serving financial services, legal, and media clients operate under the most demanding compliance and uptime expectations in the industry, and acquirers pay accordingly for books of business that have survived them.
New York offers the largest and most competitive buyer pool in the country, from individual acquirers and search funds to family offices and strategic consolidators, all operating in the same market at the same time. That competition can drive genuinely strong outcomes for sellers, with multiple offers and favorable terms for businesses that show well. But it also means buyers here are experienced, advised, and rigorous in diligence, and the metro's operating costs mean they scrutinize margins harder than buyers anywhere else. Preparation matters more in New York, not less, and it shows up directly in the price.
We work with owners across Florida and nationwide. Whether you are in New York or anywhere in between, we bring the same preparation-first approach to every engagement. Pedro has built and sold businesses of his own, and acquired and sold others: that experience is what we bring to your side of the table.
For MSP owners specifically: Pedro founded, built, and sold managed service providers himself. He understands the recurring revenue model, the technician dependency risk, and what a strategic buyer is going to look at when they evaluate your book of business.
