High-Demand Auto Shop – 30+ Years, Repeat & Fleet Clients
Business Description
Rare opportunity to acquire a long-standing, highly reputable auto repair shop with over 30 years of consistent operation and strong government clientele. This is a true turnkey operation with a proven track record, loyal customers, and immediate income potential.
Established in 1996, this independent auto repair business has become the #1 trusted shop in its local market, known for its reliability, quality service, and longstanding relationships with major institutional clients. The shop services both cars and trucks and has built a rock-solid reputation through word-of-mouth and a stellar 4.9-star online rating—without any paid advertising.
Key Financial Highlights
- Gross Revenue: $651K (cash-adjusted)
- Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE): $210K (32.3% margin)
- Gross Profit Margins: Consistently strong, averaging 52.6%
Operational Overview
The business operates out of a well-equipped, fully heated and air-conditioned 2,000 sq ft facility. It is outfitted with extensive tools and equipment, including lifts, air compressors, A/C systems, wheel alignment machines, and a NY state inspection system—making it a true turnkey opportunity with significant asset value.
Daily operations are straightforward and currently handled by the owner, spouse, and one full-time employee. The business uses Mitchell OnDemand software for invoicing, parts ordering, and labor guides, allowing for efficient and streamlined workflows. With proper delegation or a service manager, the business can be run semi-absentee.
The location offers strong strategic advantages, including proximity to an Amazon warehouse and multiple industrial facilities, driving consistent demand and fleet servicing opportunities.
Reason for Sale
The owner is retiring after decades of successful operation and is ready to transition the business to a new operator.
Growth Opportunities
- Hire additional technicians to increase service capacity and revenue
- Expand fleet service contracts (recently added a 25-truck account worth ~$10K)
- Implement digital marketing or local advertising to further scale
- Add service advisors to reduce owner involvement and increase efficiency
Ideal Buyer
This opportunity is perfect for an experienced mechanic, auto shop owner, or entrepreneur looking for a profitable, well-established business with strong cash flow potential and deep community roots. It’s also ideal for someone looking to step into a respected brand with immediate credibility and growth upside.
