Most restaurants in Texas sell for roughly 1.5x to 3x Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE), or about 3x to 5x EBITDA for larger, well-run operations. A single location netting $200,000 in owner earnings often lands between $300,000 and $600,000, but your lease, concept, and books can push that number up or down fast. That’s the short answer.

A DFW electrical contractor earning $600,000 in SDE, for example, often lands somewhere between $1.8M and $2.7M depending on the details. That’s the short answer.

A shop with $600,000 in SDE often lands somewhere between $1.2M and $2.1M. Your exact number depends on service mix, recurring revenue, and how much the business leans on you.
