Operator Note · Pool Duck

"The states with the highest $/account aren't the ones with the most pools, they're the ones with tightest routing density and the most operators willing to publish rate cards."

Florida and California dominate listing volume, but per-account valuations cluster wherever operators have professionalized pricing. Routes in markets with shared rate cards and standardized service tiers consistently sell at higher multiples - a pattern visible whether you franchise or stay independent.

Methodology

Aggregates are computed from approved marketplace listings with valid asking price and account count. We report medians (not means) to reduce the influence of outlier mega-routes.

States with very few listings will swing more day-to-day, sample size is shown in every hover and table row. We never publish individual listing data on this page; the smallest reported unit is a state median.

"Multiple" = asking price ÷ monthly revenue (months-of-revenue convention common in route sales). "$/account" = asking price ÷ active accounts.

Pool Route Marketplace operates independently of any franchise system. Franchise commentary is editorial.
