Business Description
Own 3 VA territories | $0 down | Day-one cash flow & growth upside
At Signal Security (https://www.teamsignal.com/), step into a major growth opportunity with exclusive development rights across three major territories in Richmond’s booming western corridor—Short Pump, Henrico, Midlothian, and Petersburg. Unlike many resales, these territories have not yet been a focal point of active development, giving you the rare chance to build a large, high-margin book of business from the ground up—but with cash flow on day one.

The business currently generates over $300,000 in recurring revenue from institutional clients, and pro forma SDE is estimated at ~$100,000. With $0 cash required up front, 100% corporate financing, and projected territory value appreciation of 66% by 2029, this is an ideal launchpad for a motivated operator.
