Off-Market Outreach pricing
What done-for-you owner outreach costs, success fee included
Managed outreach to business owners is sold by the month. Some providers also take a success fee when you close. On a $2M acquisition, a Double Lehman fee is $180,000, paid at closing on top of the purchase price.
Below is what each provider publishes on its own pricing page: the monthly price, setup fee, minimum term and success fee, with a link to the source. Searcher OS charges no success fee on either plan.

The success fee on a $2M acquisition
A worked example: you close one $2M deal after 12 months. Each card shows the success fee and everything paid from the first month through the close.

The formula. Double Lehman is 10% of the first $1M, 8% of the second, 6% of the third, 4% of the fourth, 2% of everything above $4M (definition from the Morgan & Westfield M&A glossary). On a $2M deal: 10% of $1,000,000 = $100,000, 8% of $1,000,000 = $80,000, for $180,000 in all.
The scenario. One deal at a $2M purchase price, closed after 12 months, on each provider's lowest published monthly tier. Providers that don't publish a monthly price are left out of this example.
ClearlyAcquired Lite. The page does not define Double Lehman. We use the common definition (10%, 8%, 6%, 4% on the first four $1M, 2% above) and read "less retainer" as every monthly fee paid being credited against the fee.
Caprae Capital. The page does not say what the 2% is a percentage of. We assume the purchase price, with no credit for monthly fees.
This is an illustration of published terms, not a quote. Your contract governs what you pay.
Why the success fee can rival your down payment is written up in The success fee is the real price of owner outreach.

A note on results
Off-Market Outreach launched in November 2026, so we don't have results to publish yet. That is why this page compares prices and terms only. When we have numbers worth showing, they'll go on the Off-Market Outreach page.
