OVERVIEW

Exceptional preschool and early education property opportunity located in one of the most sought-after communities in Southern California. This offering includes both the real estate and the operating business, providing a unique chance to acquire a fully licensed educational facility with valuable long-term positioning. Property Highlights * Turnkey Facility: Purpose-built educational building with over 4,500 square feet of interior space situated on more than half an acre. Classrooms, administrative space, and outdoor play areas are designed for efficiency, compliance, and expansion of enrollment. * Strong Zoning & Flexibility: Educational zoning in place with potential for broader commercial uses, making this property attractive to both operators and investors. * Attractive Demographics: Surrounding area boasts high median household income, dual-income families, and strong demand for quality early education programs. * High Visibility & Access: The site benefits from excellent street exposure and heavy daily traffic counts, along with proximity to major educational institutions and established residential neighborhoods. * Land-Constrained Market: Limited availability of appropriately zoned parcels makes this an irreplaceable location with significant long-term real estate value. Business Highlights * Licensed for Nearly 90 Children: Valuable licensing capacity in place, offering immediate upside for a buyer with the ability to grow enrollment. * Long Operating History: Over 20 years of continuous community presence with a trusted reputation among families. * Community Recognition: Strong online reviews and brand awareness reinforce goodwill and provide a foundation for new ownership to build on. * Upside Potential: Current operations are running below licensed capacity, presenting an opportunity to increase gross revenue by 40–50% with improved marketing, facility updates, and tuition alignment. * Additional Growth Levers: * Expand enrichment programs such as STEM, arts, language, and after-school care. * Increase participation in California child care subsidy programs (CSPP, CCTR, CACFP). * Gradually adjust tuition to match market benchmarks. * Reinvest in cosmetic and facility upgrades to elevate branding and attract premium-paying families. Investment Rationale * Multiple Exit Options: Attractive to regional and national preschool chains, private equity groups, and local owner-operators. * SBA Financeable: Business with real estate qualifies for SBA 7(a) and 504 financing, enabling favorable leverage for qualified buyers. * Stable Cash Flow with Upside: Current operations provide steady revenue while leaving room for significant growth in both enrollment and tuition. * Rare Availability: Facilities of this size, license capacity, and location seldom come to market, particularly in supply-constrained, high-income trade areas. * Future Value Creation: With enrollment stabilization and market-rate tuition, projected NOI supports an exit valuation 15–20% above current levels within five years. Why This Opportunity Stands Out * A combination of prime real estate, strong community demographics, and a long-standing license create a durable platform for both operators and investors. * The surrounding trade area is characterized by high-income households, strong educational spending priorities, and limited competition from comparable facilities. * Buyer demand for early education assets remains resilient, and licensed facilities with real estate continue to command strong multiples in today’s market. Next Steps Due to the confidential nature of the business operations, financials, and exact location details, interested parties must first execute a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Once completed, qualified buyers will receive access to a detailed offering memorandum that includes: * Comprehensive financial information * Facility photos and video tour * Market analysis and demographics * Licensing documentation * Growth strategy insights and pro forma scenarios This is a rare opportunity to acquire a licensed preschool and child care facility in a high-barrier-to-entry market. With strong fundamentals and significant upside, this offering presents an ideal match for experienced operators, strategic investors, or first-time owner-operators seeking a stable and scalable business model paired with valuable real estate.
