Business Description
Own a proven painting franchise in one of the fastest-growing residential corridors in the greater Charlotte metro area — with a protected territory, no commercial lease, and a motivated seller ready to hand off a running business.

This is an asset-light, home-based operation with two field employees, an included service van, and roughly $14,000 in equipment. The franchise system provides national brand recognition, marketing support, and ongoing field resources — everything a buyer needs to hit the ground running without starting from scratch.

THE NUMBERS:
• 2025 Revenue: $299,759
• 2025 Adjusted SDE: $125,449
• Weighted Avg SDE (2023–2025): $126,452
• Gross margins have improved every year — from 29.2% (2023) to 36.1% (2025)
• Asking Price: $300,000 (~2.4x SDE)

WHY THIS DEAL WORKS:
• Protected two-zip-code territory in a growing residential market
• No commercial lease — home-based office keeps fixed costs low
• Comparable franchise territories in the same system are generating $420K–$660K+ in annual revenue — the upside is documented in the FDD
• Current owner does not pursue outbound sales — an active buyer can grow revenue immediately
• COGS labor has declined three years in a row, improving margins with stable revenue
• Seller is motivated and committed to a smooth transition and training period

IDEAL BUYER: Owner-operator, trade professional, or small business investor. Painting experience is not required — the franchise provides full training. Buyer must qualify for franchisor transfer approval.

Business name and exact location are confidential. NDA required to receive full financials, the CIM, and franchisor details. Serious inquiries only.

• One service van

Market Outlook / Competition
The Lake Norman region is one of the fastest-growing residential corridors in the greater Charlotte MSA, with sustained population growth driving consistent demand for interior and exterior painting services.

The business holds a geographically protected territory covering two zip codes. While local independent painters operate in the area, the franchise brand, marketing infrastructure, and referral network provide a competitive advantage over non-franchise operators. Comparable single-territory franchise locations in the same system generated $265K–$661K in gross sales in 2025, per FDD Item 19.
Opportunities for Growth
The current owner operates the business without pursuing active outbound sales or marketing beyond the franchise system. A buyer focused on lead generation, referral programs, and direct outreach could increase revenue in year one without additional capital investment.

Additional growth levers include: adding a second crew and vehicle to double production capacity; pursuing HOA, property management, and light commercial contracts to increase average job size; and leveraging the franchise system's marketing tools more aggressively. Comparable territories in the same system have demonstrated that $400K–$660K+ in revenue is achievable within the existing franchise framework.
