According to the latest data released by Bsale, Australia’s business sales market showed clear signs of recovery in the third quarter of 2025. The number of listings increased 4.4% quarter-on-quarter to 15,577, while the average asking price rose 6% to $654,000. Notably, 627 businesses were sold during the period — a 23% surge in completed transactions, signaling a steady rebound in buyer confidence.

This quarter also saw a positive shift in market composition, with more high-quality businesses featuring mature operations and stable profitability entering the market. Against the backdrop of interest rate cuts in 2025, overall market conditions have stabilized and become more flexible. While financing access remains somewhat challenging, innovative deal structures and flexible negotiations are enabling more successful transactions between buyers and sellers.

Regional market performance varied. Queensland and the Australian Capital Territory led the nation with average asking price increases of 4.9% and 19.2%, respectively, while New South Wales and Victoria maintained steady growth. The market is increasingly quality-driven, with businesses demonstrating strong cash flow and established systems attracting the most attention from buyers.

By sector, retail, hospitality, and lifestyle services remained the focal points of market activity, accounting for nearly half of all completed transactions. Meanwhile, as many older business owners retire, a wave of long-established, stable, and profitable enterprises has entered the market, offering investors lower-risk, steady-return opportunities.

With the Reserve Bank of Australia cutting the cash rate three times to 3.60%, financing conditions are gradually improving. The market is expected to gain further momentum from Q4 2025 through early 2026, marking the beginning of a new wave of growth in Australia’s business sales sector.
