FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a restaurant in Los Angeles?
The median asking price for restaurants in Los Angeles County is $294,500. However, prices can range significantly higher or lower depending on location, size, type, and the financial health of the business.
How much do restaurant owners earn?
Median revenue of restaurant businesses listed for sale in Los Angeles County is $652,000, while the median reported owner’s discretionary earnings is $130,592. Earnings can vary greatly depending on the type of restaurant, location, management efficiency, and market demand.
How are restaurants in Los Angeles valued?
Most business owners (and buyers) will start by applying earnings and revenue multiples to the businesses reported financials. This way buyers and sellers can gauge the value of a restaurant business relative to its peers in the market.
Based on our most recent analysis of Los Angeles restaurant business listings, revenue multiples range from 0.32 to 0.64, with the median at 0.44. Earnings multiples range from 1.94 to 3.47, with the median at 2.55. This means restaurants in Los Angeles County are valued, on average, around 0.44 times annual revenue, and/or 2.55 times annual owner earnings.
On average, businesses sell for about 80-90% of asking price, so valuation multiples based on active listings tend to be higher than closed sale multiples.
