Own a Furniture Retail Business – Invest Today!
$ 115,000
MOTIVATED SELLER in Houston, TX, with $544k in 2025 revenue! Are you ready to step into a nearly three-decade legacy of success in the furniture retail industry? Look no further than this established Furniture Retail Store located in the heart of Houston, Texas. Established in 1995 and passed down through three generations, this business has become a cornerstone of the community, particularly among Spanish-speaking clientele. With a strong customer base and a history of significant cash sales, this store has thrived by adapting to market demands and evolving with the times. Thanks to a streamlined operation model and direct relationships with manufacturers, overhead costs are kept low, maximizing profitability. As the shopping center undergoes renovations, the potential for further growth is immense. A new owner can capitalize on the enhanced appearance to attract more customers and even consider reducing rent expense by relocating to a smaller space. The opportunity to increase sales volume through additional staffing and a sales-oriented approach, especially with popular items like mattresses, presents a clear path to substantial revenue growth. The existing finance programs for purchases provide accessibility and flexibility for customers, paving the way for increased sales and market expansion. The current owner is committed to ensuring a smooth transition, offering four weeks of training to set the stage for future success. This opportunity is not to be missed for entrepreneurs looking to build on a solid foundation, drive growth, and tap into the potential for increased profitability in the vibrant Houston market. This furniture store presents significant potential, particularly given its strategic location in the bustling area of Houston. With ongoing renovations in the shopping center, a new owner will benefit from an enhanced appearance that can attract more customers with an option to reduce rent expense by permanently relocating to the smaller space to increase profitability. Currently, the business operates with a streamlined model, relying on direct shipments from manufacturers, which minimizes inventory management. However, there is a clear opportunity to increase sales volume by hiring additional sales personnel. The current owner has identified that with a more sales-oriented approach, particularly with a focus on cash-and-carry inventory like mattresses, the revenue could see substantial growth. The existing customer base, which largely includes Spanish-speaking clients, presents a unique opportunity to expand marketing efforts and potentially tap into other demographics in the area. The business already has established finance programs for purchases, which could be leveraged further to enhance customer accessibility and drive sales. Additionally, the owner is willing to provide four weeks of training after the sale, ensuring a smooth transition and the implementation of strategies for improvement. This support will be invaluable for a new owner looking to capitalize on the existing foundation and expand the business’s reach. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/Own-a-Furniture-Retail-Business-–-Invest-Today-

Houston, Texas
UNDER CONTRACT - Semi Absentee | Commercial Cleaning Franchise
$ 1,200,000
UNDER CONTRACT - BACKUP OFFERS BEING ACCEPTED This opportunity may not currently align with a traditional SBA structure due to limited operating history and its annualized financial profile, though potential financing pathways may exist for qualified buyers depending on deal structure and lender approval. Buyers should be prepared for a significant down payment, currently estimated at approximately $400,000 or more, with potential seller financing and additional lending used to bridge the balance. Due to the high level of interest, buyers who do not reasonably meet these financial expectations may not be considered. Founded in 2024, this commercial cleaning franchise represents a newer but rapidly growing operation within the Greater Houston market. Recast financials currently reflect annualized Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) exceeding $668,000 based on current operating trends. The business is built around recurring commercial service contracts, providing janitorial and facility-related solutions through ongoing client agreements rather than relying primarily on one-time project revenue. This recurring contract model may offer stronger cash flow visibility while supporting continued expansion through additional account acquisition and service growth. Operating under an established franchise system, the business benefits from brand infrastructure, operational systems, and franchise support while maintaining the upside of a developing local market presence. Structured as a semi-absentee opportunity, this business may appeal to qualified buyers seeking a scalable growth-stage operation with meaningful cash flow and expansion potential. Potential growth opportunities may exist through continued expansion of the company’s commercial client base, additional recurring contract acquisition, and deeper market penetration within its designated territory. As a developing operation formed in 2024, the business may still offer meaningful runway for growth through scaling current sales efforts, expanding client relationships, and adding commercial accounts across offices, professional facilities, and other business environments requiring ongoing cleaning and maintenance services. Additional opportunities may include expanding supplemental service offerings such as specialty cleaning, floor care, or broader facility-related solutions to existing customers, potentially increasing average client value without relying solely on new account acquisition. Operational efficiencies, staffing scale, route density improvements, and strategic market development may also create opportunities to improve margins and overall business performance, while recurring revenue infrastructure may provide a foundation for continued expansion within franchise system guidelines. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/UNDER-CONTRACT-Semi-Absentee-Commercial-Cleaning-Franchise-

UNDER CONTRACT - Coin Operated Laundromat in Houston
$ 500,000
UNDER CONTRACT - BACKUP OFFERS BEING ACCEPTED Seller is willing to finance up to 40% of the purchase price at 0% interest. Coin-operated laundromat located in a densely populated area of Houston with a strong base of nearby apartments and residential housing. The facility includes 48 washers and 48 dryers. Equipment is approximately 12–15 years old and has not been recently replaced, but all machines are currently operational. The business is primarily coin-based, with additional income from wash-and-fold services and detergent sales. Reported revenue is approximately $18,000–$20,000 per month, with estimated net income of $8,000–$10,000 per month. Financials are seller-reported and should be independently verified during due diligence. The business is owner-operated and does not currently rely on employees. Operations are straightforward but require regular owner involvement, including cleaning, cash collection, basic maintenance oversight, and customer service. There is potential to increase revenue through equipment upgrades, pricing adjustments, adding card/mobile payments, or expanding services, but these improvements are not currently in place. Due to the cash component of the business, this opportunity is best suited for a buyer comfortable verifying revenue through observation, utility usage, and other due diligence methods. The business offers multiple opportunities for continued growth and revenue expansion. A new owner can increase sales by implementing targeted local marketing, extending operating hours, and optimizing machine pricing and usage. Additional upside exists through expanding wash-and-fold services, introducing pickup and delivery, and pursuing commercial accounts with nearby apartments and small businesses. Enhancing the customer experience through improved branding, cleanliness, and payment options (such as card or mobile pay systems) could further drive customer retention and higher ticket averages. With the infrastructure already in place, the business is well-positioned for scalable growth under active ownership. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/UNDER-CONTRACT-Coin-Operated-Laundromat-in-Houston

Houston Full Dry Cleaning Plant | 20+ Years | 107K SDE
$ 300,000
Established full service dry cleaning plant located in the Houston market with over 20 years of operating history and a long standing community presence. This business operates as a true full plant facility, not a drop center, providing on site processing capabilities that offer greater operational control and service flexibility. Built on an established customer base, repeat clientele, and a proven location, the business has maintained consistent operations for multiple decades. Ownership is largely absentee, with the current owner primarily overseeing the business at a high level and visiting approximately once per week for financial management, while day to day operations are handled by staff. This structure creates an opportunity for a hands on owner operator to potentially improve profitability through increased oversight, expanded marketing, or operational efficiencies, while also appealing to investors seeking an established semi absentee business. With approximately $107K in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings, this opportunity may be well suited for buyers seeking an essential service business with an existing operational foundation, established longevity, and upside potential. Growth opportunities may include enhanced local marketing, route or delivery services, expanded commercial accounts, or modernization of customer acquisition strategies. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a long standing Houston area full plant garment care business with stable infrastructure, absentee ownership, and over two decades of established market presence. Potential growth opportunities for this business may be significant, particularly through strategic pricing adjustments and operational optimization. Current pricing is reportedly below many competing market rates, which may present an immediate opportunity for a new owner to improve revenue through carefully phased price increases while remaining competitive within the local market. Given the business’s established customer base and long operating history, modest pricing realignment alone could potentially enhance margins without requiring substantial increases in customer volume. Additional upside may be achieved through expanded local marketing initiatives, digital presence improvements, customer retention programs, and route or delivery service offerings designed to increase convenience and customer reach. The business may also benefit from pursuing commercial relationships such as hotels, hospitality providers, uniforms, or corporate garment care accounts to diversify revenue streams. Operationally, a more hands on owner may identify workflow efficiencies, stronger expense controls, or service expansion opportunities such as premium garment care, wash and fold, or specialty fabric services. With a full plant infrastructure already in place, this business may offer multiple avenues for both top line growth and bottom line improvement. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/Houston-Full-Dry-Cleaning-Plant-20-Years-107K-SDE

Houston Turnkey Fitness Gym: $182K Rev $60K Price
$ 60,000
Turnkey fitness gym in Houston, Texas generated $182,815 revenue in 2025 and is offered for $60,000, which includes $60,000 of FF&E. Monthly rent is $11,000. The business has operated for 8 years. Originally purchased as an existing F45 studio, the facility has been transformed under current ownership. Membership increased steadily over the past year and reached the highest enrollment levels since opening. It features modern workout equipment and offers a variety of classes supported by an experienced training staff already in place. All current operations, customer relationships, and leasehold improvements convey to the new owner. The prime location benefits from the increasing number of high-rise apartments nearby. Ideal for a hands-on buyer ready to step in and operate an established location. The fitness industry in Texas is booming, likely due to the influx of residents from California, and this established gym presents a remarkable opportunity for growth and expansion. The strong reputation and loyal customer base already in place provide a solid foundation for future success. One of the most significant growth opportunities lies in the increasing number of high-rise apartments in the area. As urban living continues to rise in popularity, the gym can attract new members from these nearby residences, capitalizing on the convenience of location. Additionally, there is potential to diversify offerings by introducing new classes, programs, or services that cater to various demographics, such as family-friendly options, corporate wellness programs, or specialized training for athletes. Expanding the range of classes not only appeals to current members but can also attract a broader audience, increasing membership numbers. Strategic marketing initiatives, including social media campaigns, partnerships with local businesses, or referral programs, can enhance visibility and drive new memberships. Furthermore, the gym can explore online training or virtual class options, tapping into the growing trend of remote fitness solutions. With the current owner having established a successful operation with increasing membership numbers, this business is well-positioned for its next phase of growth. For more detailed information on how to leverage these opportunities and drive profitability, please contact the broker. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/Houston-Turnkey-Fitness-Gym:-182K-Rev-60K-Price-

Reputable Commercial Transportation With Strong Broker Network
$ 78,000
This well-established and independent transportation and logistics company has been operating successfully for over 15 years and has developed strong long-standing relationships with over 40 freight brokers and various direct customers. It currently operates intrastate only, but has the capacity to transport interstate. The business consists of 1 Freightliner semi-truck and 1 refrigerated trailer and currently transports general freight, fresh produce, refrigerated food, meat and beverages. As an owner-operator, the owner is supported by a long-time dispatcher who works with over 40 reputable and national brokers, like TQL, Landstar, Ascent, and Megacorp, among others, with access to thousands of loads a week to constantly obtain carrier loads for the driver. The relationships and reputation the business owner has forged throughout the years with these freight brokers as a trusted carrier is invaluable in this industry and the owner has also developed direct customers over the years. Over the last couple of years, the owner has been reducing the amount of time on the road and has taken fewer loads, shorter distances, and more time off, focusing more on retiring as a personal choice. This reduction is also evidenced by the reduced revenue in 2024, but it is important to note that the business relationships and access to loads can easily increase the business rapidly with minimal investment. A new owner can take advantage of this turkey business foundation to further grow by easily leveraging these freight broker relationships, maximizing load volumes and expanding the business with additional semi-trucks and to interstate deliveries. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/Reputable-Commercial-Transportation-With-Strong-Broker-Network
