A look inside Established Auto Repair Shop with Seller Financing.

This long-standing auto repair business has proudly served the Palm Desert and Coachella Valley area for over 40 years, cultivating a strong customer loyalty through its commitment to quality and dependable service. Operating from a spacious 3,500 sq. ft. facility, which includes a 500 sq. ft. studio, the shop offers comprehensive automotive repair for a variety of makes and models. With annual gross sales around $360,000 and an adjusted net income of $170,000, the business comes with about $150,000 in furniture, fixtures, and equipment, alongside approximately $20,000 in leasehold improvements. Currently open Monday to Friday, it enjoys a solid customer base, primarily driven by referrals.
