Childcare Business and Real Estate Sold in Raleigh-Durham Area
HINGE Advisors is excited to announce the sale of an established childcare business and its real estate in the Raleigh-Durham area of North Carolina.
“Having a school in a highly desirable location is fantastic — but it doesn’t automatically mean your sale will be a slam dunk. It takes specialized expertise to ensure sellers get what they truly deserve and drive the deal to a successful close. We’re proud to have done both,” says HINGE Transaction Advisor Nan Rikard.
A Prime Location
Driven by a growing population and a strong local economy, North Carolina is one of the most attractive markets for early education buyers and investors. This sale is the third childcare transaction in the state led by the HINGE team in less than three months and one of many North Carolina preschool sales facilitated by the national firm over the past several years.
“This was a prime opportunity for another wonderful operator to get a foothold in a coveted market, and we made sure the sale reflected that,” notes Nan.
HINGE represented the seller exclusively, managing the entire process on behalf of the school’s former owners — from taking the school to market confidentially to strategically negotiating offers and deal terms.
In addition to Nan, the HINGE team supporting this sale included Senior Financial Analyst Rusty Bailey, Diligence Manager Carrie Pergerson, and Transaction Marketing Director Annie Nicholson.
Poised for Growth
Beyond leveraging the school’s potential as part of the buyer’s expansion plan, the transition also brings exciting new opportunities for students, families, and staff to learn, grow, and benefit from the additional resources of a larger organization.
“As a former childcare owner, I know firsthand that selling a school isn’t just a transaction. It’s a chance to realize your goals and architect the future you want to see for the young children and teachers who depend on you,” adds Nan. “Congratulations to everyone involved!”
Childcare centers across the United States are in high demand from buyers and investors.
