Private utilities are profit killers. Managing septic and wells drains cash, time, and peace of mind. The best operators avoid the risk — and stick with public utilities whenever possible. ✅ Septic failures = surprise repair bills that crush margins. ✅ Wells = unpredictable upkeep, inspections, and liability. ✅ Public utilities = stability, predictability, and fewer headaches. Smart buyers know: the safest profits flow where the utilities are public. #businessacquisitions #entrepreneurship #valuecreation #realestate #operations #growth
