Business Description
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an industry-leading flooring franchise positioned in some of the most desirable and highest-income ZIP codes in Chicago. The business is fully built, professionally branded, and ready for rapid scale under the next owner.

The current owner has completed the heavy lift—establishing systems, relationships, assets, and brand presence—and is shifting focus to real estate development and property management, creating a clean handoff opportunity.

AI-Resistant, Evergreen Demand
Flooring is a fundamentally AI-resistant, needs-based business tied to homeownership, real estate transactions, damage remediation, and ongoing renovation cycles. Homes are continually bought, sold, updated, and repaired, creating consistent demand that is not dependent on discretionary trends or digital substitution. This business operates at the intersection of necessity and lifestyle improvement, providing durable long-term relevance.

Prime Territory & Market Position

Exclusive franchise territory covering six high-value North Side Chicago ZIP codes

Dense residential, condo, apartment, and light commercial market

Strong demand driven by renovations, aging housing stock, insurance events, and real estate turnover

Ideal mix of high-margin residential and repeat commercial/property work

Strong Foundation with Significant Upside
While still early-stage financially, the business has established assets that typically take years to build, including:

Over 55 Google reviews with a strong local reputation

Active, well-developed social media presence

Excellent local SEO and LLM-optimized digital footprint

Established relationships with builders, developers, apartment and condo managers, general contractors, retail chain partners, and financial institutions

Strong referral pipelines including professional networks

This is a growth-focused acquisition with a clear runway, not a turnaround.

Turnkey Assets Included

Fully branded flooring showroom van

Walkie stacker forklift

Extensive flooring samples and displays

Organized warehouse with racking and equipment

Transferable lease in a central, highly desirable neighborhood

Vendor relationships and national franchise support systems

The buyer avoids startup risk and can operate immediately.

Scalable Operations

Proven sales and in-home consultation process

Established vendor and installation relationships

Franchise systems, training, and national marketing support

Clear opportunities to increase consultations, expand property manager and HOA programs, scale commercial and builder relationships, and add dedicated sales focus

With the right operator, this territory supports rapid revenue acceleration and strong long-term profitability.

Ideal Buyer

Owner-operator with sales or operations experience

Flooring, construction, or real estate professional

Builder or GC seeking vertical integration

Strategic franchise buyer expanding market presence

Reason for Sale
Owner is shifting focus to property development and property management and stepping away from day-to-day operational ownership. This is a strategic transition, not a distressed sale.

Facilities & Assets
Opportunity to assume a centrally located, professionally appointed office and warehouse within the exclusive territory, fully operational and ready for immediate takeover. Included are a walkie-stacker (forklift), fully wrapped Ford Transit Pro Mobile Showroom van, computers and office equipment, warehouse racking, extensive flooring samples and displays, accessories, and select inventory—providing a turnkey setup from day one.
Market Outlook / Competition
Flooring operates in a nearly recession-resistant industry, driven by a mix of “needs” (damage, repairs, and pre- or post-move replacements) and “wants” (aesthetic upgrades and renovations). Competition includes big-box retailers and independent installers, creating a fragmented market with opportunity for a professional, service-driven operator.
Opportunities for Growth
Significant growth opportunity through expanded retail partnerships, deeper relationships with general contractors, apartment and condo managers, and referral partners such as movers and real estate professionals. The territory supports increased in-home consultations, repeat property work, and commercial volume with focused sales execution.
