Frequently asked

Insurance Agency in New Mexico · FAQ

How is my insurance agency valued?

The market prices in EBITDA multiples and commission multiples in parallel. Commercial-heavy agencies typically trade at 8–12x EBITDA (or roughly 2.5–3.5x annual commission revenue). Personal-lines books cluster at 5–8x EBITDA / 1.5–2.5x commissions. What lands you at the top of the range: 90%+ retention, commercial mix above 60%, a producer bench beyond the owner, and diversified carrier relationships.

How long does it take to sell an insurance agency?

Optis-tracked deals typically run 4–7 months from LOI to close, faster than most Main Street categories because the PE-backed aggregator platforms have institutionalized diligence and template deal docs. The bottleneck is almost always the E&O tail-coverage negotiation and the appointment-transfer paperwork with each carrier, not the transaction itself.

What insurance agency multiples are typical in New Mexico?

New Mexico insurance agency businesses trade in the same base range as national comps — 2.5x to 4x SDE below roughly $1M in SDE, transitioning to 6x to 10x EBITDA above. New Mexico's more moderate SBA activity means broker network reach into out-of-state buyers matters more for maximizing outcome.
