Description
* The current owner has operated the shop since 1999 and is now selling due to retirement. There are no employees, and the owner works full-time by himself. Monthly gross sales average $18,000, with net income around $6,983.
* One key advantage is the stable rent structure. Out of the total rent of $10,506, the owner’s actual burden is only about $1,976 after receiving $8,530 in sublease income. Within the same building, the owner uses only 1.5 of the 4 service bays and subleases the remaining space. In addition, part of the adjacent building is also subleased, generating extra income.
* The sale includes equipment such as two hoists (7,000kg), one compressor, two smoke check machines, one tire machine, and one tire balance machine.
* The shop is equipped to provide a wide range of services, from basic maintenance such as oil and filter changes, brake service, tire rotation and balancing, battery checks, and fluid inspections, to more advanced repairs including engine, electrical systems, A/C, and heating. Routine services such as spark plug and belt replacement, wheel alignment, and fuel system cleaning are also available.
* This is a retirement sale offering a strong opportunity with a stable sublease structure and a long, successful operating history.
