SamFend is acquiring licensed childcare centers in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, the 4th largest metro in the US with 8M+ residents and accelerating population growth. DFW has a structural shortage of licensed childcare capacity driven by post-pandemic demand recovery, housing growth in Collin, Denton, and Williamson counties, and a fragmented market of 1,300+ independently owned centers.
We target stabilized, cash-flowing centers at $1.0M–$3.5M using SBA 7(a) financing, creating leveraged returns with downside protection through real asset backing and essential-service demand.
