Description
Now run by established industry veteran, he is ready to retire and hand it off for its next incarnation. It is a lean operation that’s ready and able to scale to any production their clients want to tackle. The team is on hand regular business hours, but ready to work whatever schedule as required by the project. The owner works part-time as needed. He is fine leaving the country for weeks at a time and can support the team from afar. It is time for a new generation to come in and put their own stamp on it. Terms are always negotiable, depending on the structure, but the hope is that it continues to thrive because the town and the creative community truly need it.
This opportunity is a sale of assets (including intangibles). It is fairly priced and includes the option of purchasing the building and property. Location and full financial details, available once NDA is completed.
The company has meaningful upside by expanding beyond weekday production work into weekend live events and packaged content/event offerings. The space could be marketed for advance-booked activations, product launches, parties, and community-facing brand events while preserving weekday availability for core studio production.
Existing relationships and partnerships provide a foundation, but a motivated new owner could further develop these opportunities and grow the business.

Real Estate Photography, 3D, Drone & SaaS Platform Business — Bay Area
$ 399,000
CF : $ 140,466
For over 16 years, this business has been one of the most trusted real estate media companies in the San Francisco Bay Area — and it's now built to scale nationally. Founded in 2010, the company delivers a comprehensive suite of real estate marketing services: professional photography, aerial drone footage, 3D walkthroughs and floor plans, virtual staging, video tours, virtual tour websites, photo editing, printing, and SEO. With 12 team members (5 full-time, 7 contractors) managing day-to-day operations, the owners work fully remotely with minimal involvement — making this a true semi-absentee business generating $520K in gross revenue and $140K in SDE. Two Strong Revenue Streams — One Major Growth Opportunity The core photography and media services business is profitable, well-established, and backed by over 16 years of loyal Bay Area client relationships and a seasoned team of photographers equipped with state-of-the-art equipment. The real upside is the proprietary SaaS platform. The technology enables real estate agents and entire associations to independently create and publish professional virtual tours, integrates directly with MLS systems, and is sold via site-licensing agreements to broker offices and associations. The platform recently secured a contract with a major East Coast real estate association — proving the model works well beyond California. Today, SaaS represents approximately 10% of revenue. With focused sales and marketing, new owners could dramatically grow that number. What You're Buying • 16-year-old Bay Area market leader with deep client relationships and strong local reputation • $520K gross revenue / $140K SDE — SBA pre-approved financing available for qualified buyers • Proprietary SaaS platform with MLS integration, site-licensing model, and a proven national contract • $50K in included equipment: 3D cameras, mirrorless cameras, aerial drones, and studio gear • Fully remote and home-based — zero lease or office overhead • Scalable nationwide without adding physical infrastructure • Seller providing virtual training and transition support post-close Ideal Buyer This is an ideal fit for a media-savvy entrepreneur, a real estate marketing firm looking to add a proprietary tech platform, or a SaaS-focused operator who wants a profitable, established services business as a foundation while building recurring subscription revenue. The team, technology, and client base are already in place — the growth is waiting on the right owner. SBA-Pre-Approved Financing for a Well-Qualified Buyer

Iconic Mountain Sporting Goods Store
$ 1,100,000
Central Sierra Nevada • 30+ Years of Community Trust Asking Price: $1,100,000 — Includes $350,000 in Inventory THE NUMBERS TELL THE STORY $1M+ Annual Revenue $290K+ Seller’s Discretionary Earnings Why This Business Works Only full-service sporting goods store within 50 miles — Amazon can’t compete with walk-in availability. Prime highway location: every vehicle heading to the lakes or ski resort passes the front door. Loyal customer base built over 30+ years serving skiers, anglers, hikers, campers, and locals. Experienced assistant manager and knowledgeable, long-term core staff already in place. All full-time, year-round employees have been with the store for 2 to 3 years. Includes $350,000 in current, quality inventory — step right in to a profitable, operational business, no ramp-up needed. Proprietary AI-Powered Management Software — In Development Custom-built AI-powered management software, designed by the owners specifically for this operation, is currently in development and expected to be complete within 60–90 days. Built from 30+ years of real-world retail experience, the platform will streamline orders, inventory, vendor management, automate communications, organize financial and operational workflows, and manage employee scheduling — saving dozens of hours per month and giving the new owner a meaningful competitive advantage from day one. Untapped Revenue Streams Rental equipment expansion: The current rental program represents only a fraction of the potential — significant opportunity exists to expand offerings and grow this high-margin revenue stream immediately. E-commerce and online presence: Virtually no digital sales channel currently exists, representing a significant untapped opportunity. Extended seasonal offerings and guided experiences to capture more of the region’s growing outdoor tourism market. Secure Location — Owner-Provided Lease The building is owned by the sellers, who will provide a long-term, competitively priced lease to the buyer. This gives you the stability of a prime location without the capital requirement of a real estate purchase — and eliminates the risk of a landlord forcing a move. Why Is It for Sale? The owners operate multiple businesses and are transitioning toward semi-retirement. This is a deliberate, planned exit — not a distressed sale. The business is healthy, the team is strong, and the sellers are motivated to find the right buyer and ensure a smooth transition. Ready to Learn More?

Remote, Wireless and Specialty Film Equipment Package - Owner RET
$ 1,600,000
This sales, rental and service business is selling off its highly specialized, hi-tech film equipment, valued at over $2.5 million for $1.6 million. The equipment includes various types of Remote Heads, and the proprietary mechanical design and software that has gone into creating, servicing and maintaining it. The Company has traditionally monetized the equipment via sales, rentals and service to its broad group of customers. However, the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the 2023 SAG-AFTRA/WGA strikes, and the destructive 2025 Los Angeles wildfires formed a devastating "triple whammy" that permanently broke Hollywood's traditional economic model. Together, these distinct crises accelerated a massive, historic exodus of physical production away from Southern California and the film industry. The Founder now wishes to retire, and feels the Company’s Remote, Wireless and Specialty Equipment for shooting and filming will make a useful addition to any Buyer involved in commercial videography, filming or shooting sporting events, live performances, or independent creations. https://tworld.com/locations/California/ny/listings/Remote-Wireless-and-Specialty-Film-Equipment-Package-Owner-RET
