Business Description

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a fully equipped, turnkey automotive repair
facility in one of the most affluent and desirable communities in Marin County, CA.
Established by the current property owner in 2024, the facility recently underwent
extensive capital improvements, including full remodeling to meet ADA compliance
requirements.
The business is housed in a prominent, high-visibility corner location with a built-in,
rapidly expanding affluent local customer base. The current owner also owns the real
estate and is seeking a stable, long-term operator to take over the business and sign a
secure, multi-year lease.
The shop features multiple unique revenue streams that set it apart from standard
repair garages:
1)STAR Certified Smog Station: Provides a highly consistent stream of recurring daily
clientele.
2)Rare Salvage Vehicle Inspection License: A highly valued designation that drives
exclusive regional traffic.
3)Active Used Car Sales Permit: Generated approximately $30,000 in revenue last year
with minimal effort, offering a massive, untapped growth channel for a motivated buyer.
The sale includes an extensive, high-end asset list featuring premium heavy-duty
vehicle lifts, advanced diagnostic machinery, tire service equipment, and a modern, fully
integrated office and POS setup.
Ad#:2523912

Detailed Information

Tire Service: Professional-grade Tire Changer and Wheel
Balancer.
Shop Infrastructure: Premium 5HP / 80-Gallon Air Compressor,
heavy-duty shop press, engine hoists, transmission jacks, bulk
fluid drains, and technical workbenches.
Office & Waiting Area: Fully furnished customer waiting room,
office desks, and seating.

Growth & Expansion: While the core mechanical repair and smog business is highly
profitable, a new owner can scale revenue rapidly by aggressively
marketing the under-utilized Used Car Sales Permit or expanding
shop operating hours to capture the high local demand.

Reason for Selling: Owner is focusing on property management and commercial real
estate
