Technical and Government Work
Engineering, research and technical service firms grew up around the base and the research center. Buyers for these companies look hard at contracts, cleared staff and how much of the work runs through the owner.

Trades and Retail
Contractors and retailers along Mercury Boulevard and in Coliseum Central serve the whole Peninsula. Their buyers are often local competitors or managers inside the company.

Owners Nearing Retirement
A good number of Hampton companies were started decades ago by owners now thinking about what comes next. Buyers pay most for those that already run without the founder in the room every day. A year spent handing off key relationships can lift the price.
Hampton Filings
Hampton has its own Commissioner of the Revenue for the business license and business property return. State steps are on our closing obligations pages.
