This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly profitable, nationally recognized, branded gas station with a convenience store, U-Haul franchise, and valuable real estate. This well-established business has a strong operating history and offers significant upside for an owner-operator or investor. According to the seller, the station pumps over 70,000 gallons of fuel per month while maintaining a gross margin of 70¢ to $1.00 per gallon. The convenience store generates over $50,000 in monthly sales with approximately 35% gross margins.

Owner claims the business net about $650,000 per year. Located at a busy intersection with excellent visibility and easy access, this property enjoys strong traffic counts and a loyal customer base. A new owner can further increase revenue by adding EBT services and beer & wine sales, creating additional profit opportunities with minimal investment.

$440,000 NET PROFIT HIGH-VOLUME GAS STATION & LARGE C-STORE Major ARCO/ampm Upgrade Opportunity Exceptional opportunity for an experienced gas station and convenience-store operator. This established station already generates strong gasoline volume and profitability, but the real opportunity is its large, underutilized convenience store and significant potential to increase fuel volume. ● Approximately 85,000 gallons of gasoline per month ● Reported gasoline margin of over $0.80 per gallon ● Current C-store sales of approximately $25,000 per month ● Approximately 35% C-store markup ● Reported net profit: approximately $440,000 ● Large C-store with substantial room for improvement and expansion According to the owner, ARCO/ampm is prepared to invest more than $1.2 MILLION to upgrade and remodel the station if the new owner agrees to convert the location to an ARCO/ampm operation. Even more importantly, according to the owner, an ARCO traffic study indicates significant upside potential after renovation and conversion, with the location having the capacity to potentially reach the following: 220,000+ gallons of gasoline per month and $180,000+ in monthly C-store sales Compared with the current approximately 85,000 gallons and $25,000 in store sales, this represents tremendous growth potential for the right operator. The existing C-store is large but needs remodeling. A buyer who properly renovates, merchandises, and operates the store may have an opportunity to dramatically increase inside sales while benefiting from the additional traffic and brand recognition associated with an ARCO/ampm conversion. ASKING PRICE: $1,800,000 REAL ESTATE ALSO AVAILABLE The owner is also willing to consider selling the real property, creating an opportunity for a qualified buyer to potentially acquire both the operating business and the underlying real estate. This is a rare opportunity to acquire an already profitable gas station with substantial existing fuel volume, a large C-store, major expansion potential, and a possible $1.2+ million investment from ARCO/ampm. Serious and financially qualified buyers only. For additional information, contact: Matt Sadati DRE #00704888 or his assistant, Tamana, 510-415-6023
Single-location BMW and Mini specialty service and repair shop in California, in one of the densest concentrations of German cars in the country. Revenue and earnings have grown in each of the last four years, the business carries no debt, and there is no customer concentration anywhere in the base. The work is diagnosis and mechanical repair on out-of-warranty vehicles that would otherwise go to a dealer at roughly twice the price. Scope runs from factory-scheduled maintenance through engine, transmission, suspension, brake, cooling, and electrical repair, plus module coding and programming that most independent shops cannot perform. Tires and alignment are deliberately not offered. Over 95% of repair orders are BMW and nearly all of the balance is Mini, which uses the same diagnostic platform. The median vehicle serviced is a 2014 model, the out-of-warranty window where an independent specialist competes on capability rather than price. What a buyer acquires is a documented repeat client base and the factory-level diagnostic capability that holds it. Roughly 1,325 clients and 1,412 vehicles have come through the shop, 72% of revenue comes from returning clients, and the largest single client is under 1% of revenue. The top ten clients together are 6.08%. That base was built entirely by referral, on advertising spend of about $1,100 in a year against $1.4 million of revenue. The financial record is unusually well documented for a business this size. Revenue reconciles across three independent sources: CPA-prepared accrual statements, the shop management system invoice export, and filed state sales tax returns. Add-backs total under $16,000 against reported net income, because the owner takes distributions rather than a salary, so reported income already sits close to true owner earnings. There is no debt, no lien, no litigation, and zero workers compensation claims across three consecutive policy years. Operating detail: 1,652 repair orders in the trailing twelve months, an average repair order of $904, 3,804 billed labor hours in 2025 across two technicians, an effective labor rate of $197 per billed hour, and 91.2% of work paid by card at pickup, so there is no receivables risk. The natural buyer is a technician-operator who can work the platform, or a multi-shop group in the region. A signed non-disclosure agreement and buyer qualification are required for the confidential information memorandum and detailed financials. All figures are unaudited and subject to verification.

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating automotive and boat business acquisitions.
Gas stations, repair shops, and car washes handle fuel, solvents, and wastewater, and remediation can run six or seven figures. A Phase I, tank records, and permit history tell you whether you're buying a business or a cleanup.
Lifts, wash tunnels, fuel systems, and lined tanks have finite lives and expensive replacements. Ask age, maintenance history, and what's been deferred.
Much of an automotive business is its corner — traffic, access, and a transferable lease. A great shop on a short or non-assignable lease is a problem you inherit.
A repair shop with a loyal service base is worth more than a lot living on deal volume. Get the repeat-customer rate, not just the top line.
Dealer licenses, certified techs, and manufacturer or fuel-brand agreements may not transfer automatically. Confirm what passes and what you must re-earn.
In smaller shops the owner is the master tech and the relationships. Identify who holds the skill and the customers and what retention looks like after close.
