"We are extremely excited to be partnering with the Lake Street Capital Partners team to support and accelerate the growth plans we are executing on at Choufani & Bailey," said James Bailey, Co-Founder of Choufani & Bailey.

"The opportunity to create a partnership with Justin, Brant, and the rest of the Lake Street Capital team to achieve this goal was a no-brainer."

"Choufani & Bailey represents the perfect company to launch our new platform, HighPoint Exterior Home Services," said Brant Wilczek, Managing Director of Lake Street Capital Partners. "James, Sharbel, and the rest of the Choufani & Bailey team have created tremendous brand equity within their core market.
