Not my round ;D
But i see 1 in ascot and its a monthly value of 2300 and he wants 27000 for it.
Do you think this is overpriced.

I think it's over priced Cliff. Even if he has been working it for ten years and every customer pays on time etc, it's a lot of money for what is essentially goodwill.

takes 1 man an average of 6 short days per month to clean. Good customers and sized houses. All compact rounds and well priced jobs! Customers are conditioned to clean in all weathers all year round. Houses serviced each and every month and will be until work is sold in full. Rare opportunity to buy work in the home counties. Work can be viewed between 5th march and 13th march. No time wasters. Genuine enquiries email promptly for further information. May be willing to split work?
sounds good to me
-
That's in my neck of the woods so to speak,wonder what he would take as an offer ;)
-
That works out at over £380 a day for a short day.
Probably 6 hours so £63 an hour.
Very impressive.

We are back into what can be achieved in a day territory, thats some going for one man...
Is it really worth doing for a year before any profit what so ever?
-
I live in Ascot I wonder who it is? I don't work in Ascot but a good mate does so will ask him.
If the work is well priced and that easy it is not too bad but a little overpriced.
-
do you think that would sell at that price . ??? ???

Assuming you took out a loan to cover the asking price, over 2 yrs, half of your monthly income would be repayments. Of course, longer borrowing options would be available which would reduce the monthly cost but the interest charges would be higher.
I guess there would be people interested if it sounds a viable proposition to them.

not bad if you already have a round and want some cream work
In 2 yrs time after loan gone you have a quality bit of work

is that round only or whole business as that makes a massive difference.
I think some undervalue there work, but at the same time some way over price crap work

i bought a round and was told to expect around 20 percent wastage .luckily for me that hasnt happened but if that happened there the round would take 1800.00 it wouldnt sound so good..... just a thought

That's very true but you could also increase it by 20% with new customers

not sure bout this one, if I was to sell my round, I would want atleast 10x the monthly average (to even consider selling)as I no for the flexibility/ freedom/ work hours I would not except no less!!
I reakon any window cleaner out there(who has grafted to build his or hers round) would not except no less if it's an established business/round as you couldn't get a 9-5 job 5 days a week that pays that wage... Everyone knows how hard a good £1000 round a week is to come by!! Please correct me if il wrong but try putting a price on your round...

i guess everyone has different views on that one. every round is different i would want 10 times for mine now cause i know its worth it.some rounds are poor and some are good

Probably - as it will also allow you time to get on with your own work. It's a wealthy area so could be a good target for someone with long term thoughts.

20% sounds about right. Some that I bought a while back may end up being a bit higher than that as a proportion want to be in when I clean (access only through garage). Much depends on whether I can build their trust into parting with a garage key or whether they are prepared to leave it unlocked. Three in one road have already been despatched. Another may follow. The rest seem OK so far though. In the work list there were two who reckon that they had already decided they only wanted an ad hoc service (not clear if the seller was aware). I thanked them for their time and wished them all the best in finding someone who would provide the service (jobs go to 2 floors above ground). All perfectly polite but I only want work that is reasonably profitable without being high maintenance.

god. i use to think ,they sold for 4 or 5 month clean , not 10 . but that was 10year ago . now they ask for 10 clean a month.
