Business Description

Well-established automotive repair shop located in central Marin County, just off Highway 101. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a proven shop in a high-demand area with limited nearby competition.

The business generates approximately $450,000 in annual revenue and is currently operated just 4 days per week, leaving clear upside for a more hands-on operator. The shop is fully equipped with 5 lifts, approx 4,600 sq. ft. of indoor space, and ample on-site parking.

One of the biggest advantages of this location is its proximity to a major auto parts distributor, allowing for extremely fast and efficient parts sourcing—an operational edge that is hard to replicate.

The current owner originally started as an employee and took over the business in 2022. Due to limited operating schedule and staffing, the business is not being fully maximized. A new owner-operator or existing shop looking to expand into Marin County can step in and immediately grow revenue by increasing hours, staffing, and throughput.

The business operates under a highly favorable lease for Marin County, with approximately 4,600 square feet of space at a base rent of about $3,200 per month. The current term runs through February 2028 and includes two additional five-year renewal options, providing long-term stability for a new owner. Rent increases are modest (approximately 1.5% at scheduled intervals), and the lease structure is straightforward, with the landlord responsible for major structural components such as the roof and exterior. Overall, the lease offers below-market occupancy costs, predictable expenses, and a secure long-term position in a prime location.

Opportunity:
Ideal for an experienced mechanic, shop owner, or operator looking to take over a solid foundation and grow the business.

Important Note:
This is an owner-operator opportunity. The current technician is not expected to remain post-sale.
