Long-standing Automotive Repair Business, 30+ Year History
$ 725,000
Established independent automotive repair and maintenance business serving the western suburbs of Chicago for over 30 years. The company has built a strong reputation for honest service, technical expertise, and consistent customer care, resulting in a large base of loyal repeat customers and steady year-round demand. The business operates as a full-service repair facility providing diagnostics, mechanical repair, preventative maintenance, tire services, and electrical work for a broad range of passenger vehicles and light trucks. Operations are supported by an experienced team of technicians, service personnel, and shop-level management, allowing the owner to maintain a primarily oversight and administrative role rather than performing day-to-day repair work. The company operates from a fully equipped four-bay facility with modern diagnostic equipment, and a streamlined operating structure. Revenue is highly diversified across a large active customer base with no individual customer concentration, supporting stable and recurring cash flow. This opportunity is well suited for either an experienced owner-operator or an investor seeking a stable service business with an established team and operational infrastructure already in place. Multiple growth opportunities exist through expanded operating hours, increased marketing efforts, service mix expansion, and operational optimization under new ownership. Real estate is available for purchase in conjunction with the business, and the seller strongly prefers to sell both together. The sale of the real estate will be coordinated through a licensed Illinois real estate broker. Growth opportunities exist through expanded operating hours, increased marketing efforts, and improved customer retention initiatives. Additional upside may be achieved by increasing bay utilization, optimizing technician productivity, and expanding into higher-margin service categories and specialty automotive work. The business also provides a platform for continued growth under more active operational management or strategic ownership. https://tworld.com/locations/Illinois/schaumburg/listings/Long-standing-Automotive-Repair-Business-30-Year-History
DuPage County, Illinois
Indoor Children’s Play & Party Business – DuPage County
$ 120,000
This is a well-established indoor children’s entertainment and play center located in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago in DuPage County. The business offers a safe, climate-controlled environment designed for young children and families, making it a popular destination year-round. Revenue is generated through a diversified mix of open play admissions, private birthday parties, group events, and special programs, providing consistent cash flow and repeat customer traffic. The business benefits from strong brand recognition in its local market, a loyal customer base, and excellent online reviews. The facility is thoughtfully designed to accommodate high-volume party bookings while still supporting daily walk-in traffic. Operations are streamlined with trained staff in place, allowing for relatively absentee or semi-absentee ownership depending on the buyer’s involvement. This opportunity is ideal for an owner-operator, family business buyer, or strategic buyer seeking an established concept with proven demand. There is clear upside through expanded marketing, additional party offerings, school and daycare partnerships, and enhanced digital advertising. The business offers meaningful upside for a new owner through several clear growth initiatives. The current owners operate with limited hours, and extending weekday and weekend hours presents an immediate opportunity to capture additional open-play traffic and increase party bookings. Revenue can also be expanded through more consistent and targeted social media marketing, including paid local ads and promotions to drive repeat visits. Introducing or enhancing membership and multi-visit pass programs would create more predictable, recurring revenue while improving customer retention. In addition, forming partnerships with local schools, daycares, and summer camps would generate steady weekday group bookings and broaden community exposure, particularly during off-peak hours. https://tworld.com/locations/Illinois/stcharles/listings/Indoor-Children’s-Play-Party-Business-–-DuPage-County
