Daycare centers for sale in Texas

Licensed childcare centers are in steady demand from owner-operators, multi-site groups, and educators who want to own a center. Buyers look at licensed capacity and enrollment, tuition rates and any subsidy mix, staff retention and director quality, the state licensing and inspection history, and whether the building is owned or leased. Confidentiality matters even more than usual, because families and teachers can react quickly to news of a sale.

Licensing and transfer

In Texas, childcare licenses do not simply transfer with a sale, so a buyer usually needs to obtain its own license, and the timing has to be planned into the deal. Work with your attorney and the licensing agency early. We structure the process so the center keeps operating smoothly through the change of ownership.
