$ 200,000
This is a well-established successful business with a strong sales history since 2014, including a high ratio of cash sales.

This store is the go-to spot for locals and tourists alike to find the broadest selection of fine gems, crystals, specimens, beads, findings and metaphysical objects in the region.

Premier Coastal Destination Coffee Portfolio (2 SHOPS)
$ 250,000
Main Street Realtors Business Opportunity Division Presents: PREMIER DESTINATION COASTAL COFFEE PORTFOLIO (2 SHOPS) Established Dual-Location Neighborhood Hub & Community Staple Santa Cruz County, California Offered at: $250,000 Includes Inventory, Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment, Tradename, Website, and Social Media An exceptional opportunity has arrived to acquire a well-established, locally loved coffee shop operation with two prime locations in Santa Cruz County. This business has been a community staple for over three decades, widely recognized for its welcoming atmosphere, loyal customer base, and strong neighborhood presence. The business has built nearly 30 years of authentic brand equity without reliance on heavy advertising, successfully cultivating a "cult following" that spans generations. Operating as a true community hub, both locations reinforce this creative identity by regularly showcasing local artwork, making them premier destinations for residents and visitors alike. This is a turnkey entry into the thriving coastal coffee market, supported by established systems and a seasoned team. Key Highlights: •Two Strategic Locations: Features two high-traffic sites: a flagship in a major regional shopping center and a second storefront in a bustling neighborhood corridor. •Approachable & High-Demand Menu: Features coffee, espresso, smoothies, breakfast items, and baked goods, with successfully integrated third-party delivery platforms. •Stable Infrastructure: Sale includes all specialized machinery, furniture, fixtures, and operational equipment valued at approximately $20,000. •Fixed Lease Stability: Prime anchor-center positioning with a fixed lease term at the flagship location secured through 2027. Business Details: •Established: Operating continuously since 1994. •Location: Santa Cruz County •Business Model: Dual-location retail coffee storefronts with high-volume delivery integration. •Inventory: Valued at approximately $5,000. •Operating Hours: Established seasonal hours are in place to maximize coastal foot traffic year-round. Upside & Opportunity: This acquisition is perfectly suited for an owner-operator or a strategic buyer looking to leverage an iconic brand with massive untapped potential. While the business currently thrives as a retail operation, there is significant upside in developing wholesale and retail distribution channels. After over 30 years of successful leadership, the current owner is preparing for retirement, offering a stable and well-regarded foundation for a fluid transition. A new owner can capitalize on existing community loyalty while exploring these growth initiatives to further leverage these high-visibility locations and the legendary brand name.

Santa Cruz County, California
Established Coastal California Pool Construction And Remodeling Company
$ 750,000
Main Street Realtors’ Business Opportunity Division Presents: Established Coastal California Pool Construction And Remodeling Company High end residential and commercial builder with strong referral pipeline Includes tradename, client list, subcontractor network, equipment, machinery, office, storage, and yard access § Financial Overview • Offered at $750,000 • Trailing twelve month gross revenue $2,271,412 • Trailing twelve month adjusted cash flow $404,406 • Cash flow multiple 2.35X • 10 full time employees • Machinery value approximately $20,000 • FF & E value approximately $5,000 Across the most recent ten year period, revenue ranged from approximately $736,000 to more than $2,300,000 with an overall average near $1,460,000. In the most recent five year window, annual revenue averaged closer to $1,950,000 with multiple years exceeding $2,100,000. This long run performance reflects durable demand for high end custom pool construction. § Overview This established pool construction and remodeling company has built and renovated high end residential and commercial pools for more than twenty years. Located in a desirable coastal California region, the company is known for craftsmanship, reliable execution, and a longstanding reputation supported almost entirely by referrals and repeat clients. Approximately seventy percent of revenue is generated through new pool construction and the remaining thirty percent through remodel work. Most projects fall between $350,000 and $500,000 and often include cold plunges, koi ponds, and advanced water systems. Technical trades such as plumbing, gunite, and electrical are handled by long term subcontractors. An in house team of masons completes tiling, concrete, and finish work. § Key Highlights • More than twenty years of established operations • Strong referral pipeline with virtually zero advertising spend • High value residential and commercial clientele • Typical project values between $350,000 and $500,000 • Reliable subcontractor network and skilled in house finish team • Office, yard, and storage available for lease or purchase • Comparable contractor sales support a higher multiple than current pricing § Business Details • Revenue mix approximately seventy percent new construction and thirty percent remodels • Ten full time employees • Longstanding subcontractor relationships • Office, yard, and storage available separately • Owner retiring for health reasons and prepared to support a one to two year transition • Strong operational foundation with room to scale • Profitability and Cash Flow • From June 2024 through May 2025, the company produced $2,271,412 in revenue and $404,406 in adjusted cash flow. The current 2.35X multiple positions the business competitively relative to comparable specialty contractor sales. Historical financials show fluctuations in profitability tied to operational practices. Several projects were priced with limited margin for scope changes and when clients requested modifications, work commonly continued without pausing to renegotiate terms. The emphasis on quality and craftsmanship is evident in the company’s reputation, although this approach extended timelines and increased labor hours. Change order processes were less formal than typical industry standards, and margin discipline was not consistently enforced. During the period where the company expanded into commercial work, the bidding structure, documentation requirements, and review procedures differed significantly from the residential process that had been the primary focus for many years. This shift introduced learning curve inefficiencies and contributed to tighter margins on certain jobs. With a more formalized commercial bidding approach, these projects would be expected to produce stronger and more predictable profit outcomes. These combined factors help explain the years where profitability tightened despite solid revenue and also highlight clear opportunities for improvement through structured bidding, assertive negotiation, and more efficient project management. § Summary of Prior Years EBITDA and Owner Adjusted Net A ten year review shows consistent revenue production with year to year variation driven largely by bidding discipline, change management, and operational efficiency. Reported net income includes owner salary, vehicles, fuel, depreciation, interest, and various non operational expenses that do not reflect the true earning power of the business. When these items are adjusted, EBITDA generally falls in the $100,000 to $300,000 range during typical operating years. Owner Adjusted Net, which recaptures owner compensation and other add backs, typically ranges from approximately $200,000 to $400,000 in years where project pricing and change management aligned with actual labor and subcontractor costs. These historical figures align with the trailing twelve month adjusted cash flow of $404,406 and support the business’s ability to generate strong earnings under a disciplined management approach. § Opportunity The business is well positioned for growth under a buyer who adds sales, project management, or marketing support. Greater structure around bidding, scope control, and change orders would be expected to increase profitability even without increasing volume. With deep roots in the coastal California market, strong subcontractor relationships, and a steady flow of high value projects, this company offers a rare opportunity to acquire a respected specialty contractor with meaningful upside potential. Full financials and additional documentation are available upon signing an NDA.
