Austin Area Paint & Body Shop
Business Description
This is a well-run paint and body shop. This is the same listing as the other Austin Area Paint & Body Shop. You can buy the shop without the property. They do some insurance but they are not too reliant on the insurance companies. There is a fair amount of customer pay. They've been in business for quite a while and the techs are tenured. There is not much turnover here.
About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 35
- Facilities & Assets
- It's a pretty clean facility. About 6,500 sf. Nine bays. Plenty of room in the building and on the property to increase business. FF&E is around $125k and is included in the asking price of $550k. Two paint booths and everything else that you would expect. Everything works and is ready for the new owner to take over.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The current owner is a good businessman. He's run the business profitably for many years. But he is comfortable at the current level of profitability and has not made any effort to increase business. It is ready for a new owner to take the reins and push it to the next level. See Growth and Expansion below.
- 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.

About the Sale
- Seller Motivation
- Retirement. He's ready to take it easy for a while.
- Transition Support
- Couple weeks should do it. The staff knows what they are doing and will be a big benefit during the transition.
- Financing Options
- I think we can get this thing done with the SBA. Need the right buyer, though.
