The $10k–$50k band is where established micro-SaaS with $500–$3,000 MRR trades. Typical profile: 100–500 paying customers, 2–4 years old, one or two founders, single niche, and $1k–$3k/month in take-home profit. Priced at 2.5–4x annual revenue depending on churn and growth.
Yes. The $25k–$50k range is the solo-operator sweet spot: mature enough to have documented customers and churn history, small enough that one person can run it. Most SaaS in this band pay back the acquisition in 24–36 months at listed margins.
25–45% annual ROI is normal at listing. Deals above 50% ROI in this band are either underpriced or come with hidden risk (declining MRR, key-customer concentration). Below 20% ROI you're paying growth premium — only worth it if the growth story is verifiable.
Cash or seller financing are the two most common paths. SBA 7(a) technically starts at $100k so it doesn't apply here. Sellers on Startup Index frequently accept 40–60% upfront with the balance paid over 12–24 months, especially when the buyer has a credible operator background.
2–4 weeks end to end. Week 1: initial call and financials review. Week 2: technical due diligence and legal review. Week 3: sign the asset purchase agreement and fund escrow. Week 4: transfer assets (code, domain, Stripe, customers) and release funds.
MRR, mostly. A $50k SaaS usually does $1k–$3k MRR; a $250k SaaS does $5k–$12k. Above $100k you'll also see cleaner books, contractor teams, some paid acquisition, and more defensible market positions. Below $100k you're usually buying a well-run side project.
Yes, but keep it tight — 5–10 hours total. Verify: MRR through a live Stripe screen-share, the last 12 months of P&L, churn cohorts, hosting/vendor bills, customer concentration, and whether the code deploys cleanly on your machine. Skip lawyer-drafted diligence packets; they cost more than the risk.
The four killers: single-customer concentration (>20% of revenue), platform dependency (one API away from broken), founder-brand dependency (customers came because of the founder's personal network), and hidden churn (revenue looks stable but subscriber count is falling). Ask direct questions about each before wiring funds.
Usually yes. Most $50k SaaS need 5–10 hours per week for support, minor development, and vendor management. That fits inside a full-time job if you set up async support and automate onboarding. If the seller reports 20+ hours/week, budget for a virtual assistant or renegotiate the price.
No success fees, no broker layer, revenue verified live via TrustMRR (not seller-uploaded PDFs), and calculated ROI and payback shown on every listing. Acquire.com charges up to 4% of deal value; MicroAcquire has broader inventory but weaker verification. Startup Index is built for buyers who compare on numbers.
In the US, SaaS profit flows to your personal return as ordinary income if you buy through an LLC (or Schedule C if sole proprietor). $50k SaaS at 50% margin produces roughly $12k/year in net profit — usually falling in the 22–24% federal bracket for most buyers. The acquisition itself amortizes as goodwill over 15 years.
