Two markets side by side — inventory, pricing, and what you actually pay per dollar of cash flow, from live Waterfall data.
California has 342% more businesses on the market than New Jersey (6,340 vs 1,436). New Jersey is cheaper at the median asking price. Both markets price at about the same 1.9× cash-flow multiple, so you pay a similar earnings premium either way — the difference is selection and entry price, not valuation.
