My name is Jim Stewart. I am the Founder and Managing Member of Legacy Security Consulting. We are a firm dedicated to connecting buyers and Sellers in the successful transfer of their security and fire alarm businesses. I was the owner of a multi-million dollar alarm company in Hawaii that I started from the ground up. For years after that, I was the in-house broker for a large security company based on the West Coast. This position gave me a new perspective on the industry; however, it also led me in a direction I hadn’t anticipated.
While I excelled at helping this corporation become one of the largest privately held security alarm companies in the country, I began to meet owner-operators who felt like they might be leaving money on the table when it came time to sell their company. Many of these business owners had never been in the position of selling their security or fire alarm company. Without having good representation, these smaller operators did not have their financial interests protected. It wasn’t long before I realized that my genuine desire was to represent these security and fire alarm business owners who wished to sell their alarm business. I know exactly how to represent sellers because I have been on all sides of the transaction. This is why I started Legacy Security Consulting.
My security firm’s sole purpose is to help you identify and implement the strategy needed to maximize the value of your security and fire alarm company. We provide professional and responsive service, with the goal of acquiring the highest possible price for your security alarm business. I have been in this industry for over 37 years and have the extensive connections required to facilitate a high multiple for your security alarm business. I will vet out unqualified purchasers and find you that perfect buyer. Even more importantly, I will protect the integrity and privacy of your company by guaranteeing absolute discretion in all of our dealings.
We’re here to assist you. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. All communication with Legacy will be Confidential. Initial discussions and consultations are available at no cost or obligation.
