WHY US
Most M&A advisors understand deals. Few understand what it's actually like to run a home services business. That combination changes everything.
30
Years of Experience
Decades of transaction experience across buy-side and sell-side, with deep relationships with strategic acquirers and private equity firms.

In Transactions
Institutional experience gives us a buyer's-eye view of what drives value, how buyers think, and how to create competitive tension.
Operator
Perspective
We've owned and operated a home services business. We understand the day-to-day realities — people, margins, leads, customers, and the challenges behind the financial statements.
Focused
On Home Services
Our exclusive focus on home services and trades means deeper market knowledge, stronger buyer relationships, and insights that lead to better outcomes.

“I’ve been on both sides of the table. I know what it takes to build a valuable business — and what it takes to sell one.”
KEVIN MITCHELL
FOUNDER & MANAGING PARTNER
We work with ownership to understand the business, normalize financial performance, identify key value drivers and address issues that could impact valuation or transaction certainty.
We develop the investment narrative, valuation framework and transaction materials needed to present the business professionally and differentiate it in the market.
We identify and confidentially approach qualified strategic and financial buyers, manage indications of interest and create competitive tension around value and terms.
We evaluate offers, negotiate economics and key terms, coordinate diligence and work alongside legal, tax and other advisors through closing.
Decades of M&A and operating experience provide a practical understanding of valuation, deal structure, diligence and what buyers look for in an acquisition.
Having operated and acquired businesses, we understand that selling a company is more than a transaction. We help owners navigate the financial, strategic and personal considerations of an exit.
Your transaction is led directly by an experienced M&A advisor—from preparation and positioning through buyer outreach, negotiation, diligence and closing.

Founded in 2020, Mitchell Capital is a California-based M&A advisory firm focused on lower-middle-market businesses.

Our approach is senior-led, hands-on and focused on helping owners achieve their objectives in one of the most important transactions of their lives.
