Buyer Seeks Restaurant, Cell Phone Store, Smog Center, Mail Box Store - absentee run businesses in the Los Angeles, Ventura area. He states: " I am primarily interested in small restaurants (not full service), mail box stores, cell phone stores, and smog test centers. I would also consider small gyms. However, I am not particularly concerned with the type of business. I will consider anything up to $250,000. I am looking for businesses that are netting at least 40% of the asking price, after accounting for what it would cost for a manager to do whatever the owner does now. My intention is to partner with someone who will run the business. For this reason, I am particularly interrested in absentee-owned businesses that are currently bringing in a good net income. If the current manager is interested, I would like to partner with him or her. As I have a good income independent of the business, my hope is that my income will serve to help guarantee a loan. My involvement in the business will primarily be marketing."  For more info and contact information regarding this business buyer please log into your BizBen Account.
