Questions owners ask

Can I sell an IT, software, or AI company on SellSideTrades?

Yes. Alongside the skilled trades, we list IT services firms and managed service providers, software and SaaS companies, technology companies, and AI companies. The process is the same: free valuation, anonymous listing, and introductions only to vetted buyers.

Do you work with pest control companies?

Yes. Pest control is one of the most active service categories for private equity buyers, especially companies with recurring residential and commercial contracts.

Does it cost anything to list?

No. Listing and valuation are free for owners. Buyers pay a success fee only when a deal closes. Optional listing upgrades are refunded if your business sells through the platform.

Is my information kept confidential?

Yes. Listings are blind. Buyers sign confidentiality agreements before seeing anything that identifies your business.
