Rare opportunity to acquire an established inflatable and party rental business for just $115,000, including approximately $85,000 in equipment, a strong repeat customer base, and a proven operating history.

The business has operated since early 2022 and generated approximately:

* 2023 Revenue: $171,000
* 2024 Revenue: $168,000
* 2025 Revenue: $121,000

The seller’s main focus is now his main successful company, which is the primary reason this business has received less attention in recent years. The equipment, customer base, website, operating history and infrastructure are already in place for a buyer who wants to step in and grow it.

The sale includes approximately 37 inflatables and games, including bounce houses, water slides and obstacle courses, plus 2 dunk tanks, trailers, a Ford F-150 truck, approximately 10 tables and 30 chairs, the established website, customer database, historical job records and operating goodwill.

One of the strongest features of this business is the customer base. Approximately 85% of customers are repeat customers, with no reliance on paid advertising. Customers include families, schools, churches, community organizations, corporate accounts and recognizable national brands.

The seller maintains computerized records of every job the company has completed, including customer history, prior rentals and pricing. A buyer is not starting with a blank slate — there is an established database of customers and years of historical rental activity already available for repeat bookings and future marketing.

The business is primarily weekend driven. On busy weekends, the company can handle as many as approximately 8 events per day, depending on the size and type of rentals. Larger water slides can rent for up to approximately $449 per rental, creating the potential for several thousand dollars in revenue over a strong weekend.

The labor model is flexible and affordable. Part-time workers are available at approximately $17–$25 per hour and can assist with deliveries, setups and pickups. The seller does not need to personally attend every job, giving a buyer the option to operate hands-on and retain more of the revenue or use helpers to handle much of the field work.

Annual insurance expense is approximately $8,000, according to the seller. Other primary operating expenses include labor and fuel, making the business relatively straightforward to understand and operate.

The business is seasonal, with the strongest activity concentrated during the warmer months and much of the work clustered around weekends.

The growth opportunity is substantial. Customers already request products the company does not currently offer, including tents and additional party rental equipment, creating an immediate opportunity to increase revenue from an existing customer base.

A new owner could expand into:

* Tent rentals
* Additional tables and chairs
* More water slides
* Additional obstacle courses
* Party and event packages
* Weekday rentals
* Additional school and church accounts
* Corporate and community events
* Direct marketing to the existing customer database
* Greater local advertising and geographic expansion

This is not a startup. A buyer is acquiring approximately $85,000 in equipment, an established website, approximately 37 inflatables, a Ford F-150, trailers, years of customer records, recognizable commercial relationships and a customer base that is approximately 85% repeat business.

At an asking price of only $115,000, with historical annual revenue as high as $171,000, a substantial equipment package, proven demand, affordable labor and obvious expansion opportunities, this is a rare and compelling opportunity for an owner-operator or an existing rental company looking for an immediate add-on acquisition.
