Houston Area Paint & Body and Mechanical Repair Includes Property
Business Description
This business has been around a long time and is well established. It's general mechanical repair and body work. Roughly split equally between the two. It's real profitable and the property is included. So this looks pretty good from the lender's perspective. We shouldn't have a problem with the financing.
The cash flow on the business is around $300k. Probably a little bit better. This accounts for a market rent on the property. I dislike putting $300k on a $3m deal because it looks like it's priced at 10x cash flow. That is not true. I pay the $3.5m price tag...you are buying the property too and the market rent goes away. Anyway I think this is a good deal.
I sell auto repair shops in Texas. I sell auto repair only. I do not sell any other kinds of businesses. These are nice shops and I want you to buy them. But if these don’t work for you for some reason, you still might want to give me a call or visit my website at www.rpmshopsales.com.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 39
- Facilities & Assets
- There are two buildings. Between the two there is pretty close to 13,000 sf. Buildings are 30 or 40 years old but in good decent.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The current owner is a good businessman. He's run these businesses profitably for many years but the business is ready for a new owner to take the reins and push business to the next level. Auto repair is a steady business. When times are good...people get their cars fixed. When times are tough...guess what people do? They still get their cars fixed. Auto repair is not recession proof but it is recession resistant.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Virtually any auto repair shop can be improved upon by implementing a well thought-out marketing effort. Shops that are for sale are usually being sold by retiring owners. And retiring owners...guys in their 60s and 70s...have a strong tendency to rely on reputation and word of mouth. They almost never use direct marketing or social media. This business fits into that category. The core business and reputation is strong but needs new blood to push it to the next level.
