Who we serve
At TradePro Partners, we partner with owners of construction and home services companies who are ready to take the next step in their journey. Our focus is on:
-
Construction and trades businesses: Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, siding, windows, and residential construction.
-
Owners seeking transition: Business leaders who want to retire, step back from day-to-day operations, or secure the long-term future of their company.
-
Teams that care about legacy: Companies with strong reputations, loyal employees, and deep roots in their community.
-
Local and regional operators: Kansas City–based businesses (and surrounding markets) that value a hands-on, local buyer over an out-of-state private equity firm.
We’re here for owners who want to sell with confidence, knowing their people, brand, and legacy will continue to thrive.
Why choose TradePro Partners?
At TradePro Partners, we know selling your business is about more than numbers—it’s about people, reputation, and the legacy you’ve built. Here’s what makes us different:
We’re direct buyers
We’re not brokers or a private equity group looking to flip your company. We are the actual buyers. That means no middlemen, no endless hand-offs, and no bait-and-switch. When you talk with us, you’re talking with the people who will carry your business forward.
A husband-and-wife team
As a family-run team, we bring a personal touch to every conversation. We know what it means to put in years of hard work and we respect the commitment it takes to build a business from the ground up. Our promise is to honor that effort, not dismantle it.
Legacy protection
We don’t believe in disrupting what already works. Our approach is to learn what made your company successful and keep that intact. From your employees to your customer relationships, we’re here to preserve what you’ve built while adding resources and support where needed.
​Local roots
We’re based in Kansas City, not across the country. That means we understand the market, the people, and the values that drive businesses here. You can count on us to stay connected and accessible—not just during the sale, but long after.

-
Fair, transparent, negotiable terms
-
Smooth transition process
-
