An opportunity to acquire a highly profitable, specialty automotive repair business with a long standing reputation for excellence in Southern California. Operating in a high-margin niche with exceptionally low local competition, the business benefits from strong demand, a loyal customer base, and multiple immediate growth opportunities to further increase revenue and profitability.

Financial Performance:
2023: Revenue $1,201,393 - SDE $153,955
2024: Revenue $1,307,094 - SDE $176,049
2025: Revenue $1,344,049 - SDE $195,496

Key Investment Highlights:

Specialty Automotive: Standard mechanic shops lack the highly technical expertise required for this work, roughly 90% of local auto shops outsource these specialty repairs directly to this business. The shop also commands high-margin, recession-resistant work from commercial fleets, servicing vehicles for the cities of Carlsbad, Vista, Oceanside, SDG&E, and UPS.

High-ticket margins: Jobs command an average ticket of $1,200 to $1,700, with complex jobs bringing in $3,000 to $4,000. Meanwhile, the other high-volume department manufactures, machines, and balances between 10 and 20 custom units a day.

Facility & Operations: The business operates out of a highly optimized, 10,000-square-foot facility equipped with three main bays and seven specialized lifts, perfectly set up to handle anything from small sports cars to massive commercial box trucks and lifted Jeeps. A major financial advantage of this acquisition is the sub-tenant currently occupying a 2,000-square-foot suite vacating the property on December 31st. This provides an immediate opportunity for a new owner to expand the shop floor, add more lifts, or build a dedicated showroom space.

Key Personnel: The facility runs on a highly efficient team of seven staff members. Including a Service and Sales Manager with over 30 years of industry experience, and a Master Technician who has worked at this specific shop for over 26 years. The current owners act in floating management and administrative roles.

Growth Opportunities:
-Immediate Rate Optimization: The shop's current labor rate of $150 per hour is currently one of the lowest in the county, offering an immediate opportunity to increase margins to the county standard of $200/hour without losing clientele.
-E-Commerce Expansion: The business operates almost entirely on word of mouth and referrals. A modernized website with click-to-order functionality could instantly scale this business into a nationwide shipping and receiving hub.
-New Service Lines: By utilizing the soon to be vacant 2,000 sq. ft. suite, a buyer can easily introduce additional services.

Reason for Selling:
After 10 highly successful years of ownership, the sellers are retiring and relocating to their property in the Midwest to be closer to family. To ensure a flawless handover, the owner is willing to stay on part-time for up to a year to help transition relationships and provide specialized consulting.

Ideal Buyer:
An operator looking to expand into a high-demand market, or an experienced mechanic ready to own a business with a proven foundation.
