Training centres and nurseries typically transact at 0.6x to 1.4x revenue or 3x to 5x EBITDA, with premium pricing attached to long-term enrolment cohorts, qualified-teacher retention, and licence stability. KHDA inspection scores materially affect achievable pricing and the buyer pool willing to engage.
Education deals need careful handling around the licence-transfer process — pre-LOI, post-LOI, and pre-completion checklists differ across emirates. SHARH structures these sales with a regulator-readiness review that flags blockers before they hit the deal timeline.
Buyers include regional education groups, family-office-backed platforms, and individual operators with sector experience. Marketplace listings indicate segment and band without disclosing the school or centre brand until NDA.
