Business Description

This established automotive repair and tire shop serves customers throughout the Katy area with tire replacement, tire repair, wheel services, preventive maintenance, brake work, and minor automotive repairs for passenger vehicles, SUVs, and light trucks. The business has an existing customer base, operating history, substantial inventory, and a functioning shop platform that may appeal to an experienced owner operator, mechanic, tire professional, or automotive company seeking an established location.
 
Prospective buyers should understand that the historical financial records are incomplete and inconsistent. Reported financial statements appear to reflect only a portion of the business activity, while the seller represents that additional sales were received in cash and were not fully recorded. The available bank statements show substantially more account activity than the reported revenue, but the records do not provide a fully reconciled picture of revenue, expenses, or Seller’s Discretionary Earnings.
 
In the broker’s opinion, the business is not currently suitable for SBA financing because the available tax returns and financial records do not demonstrate sufficient documented revenue or cash flow to support conventional lender underwriting. Buyers should expect to complete extensive independent due diligence and should be prepared to pursue an all cash purchase, alternative financing, or a transaction that includes seller financing.
 
The opportunity is best suited for a hands on buyer who understands automotive operations and is comfortable improving accounting procedures, financial controls, sales documentation, marketing, customer retention, and commercial account development. A new owner may be able to create additional value by recording all revenue, improving expense tracking, implementing stronger operating systems, increasing local advertising, and building more consistent fleet and repeat customer relationships.
