This is an asset-based sale of a fully built-out children's franchise spa concept located on the I-10 corridor in Boerne, Texas — one of the fastest-growing family communities in the greater San Antonio market. The 2,671 SF suite features a dedicated appointment floor and a semi-private party room, turnkey and fully equipped for day-one operations. The business serves girls ages 2–15 with mini manicures, mini pedicures, facials, makeup, hair styling, DIY lip gloss and sugar scrub stations, and a full lineup of birthday party packages ranging from $500–$725. The Numbers: This is an asset-based sale — not an earnings-multiple transaction. The business has operated under a remote owner since opening and is priced on the fair market value of its transferable assets: leasehold improvements, FF&E, franchise, and the lease. The right buyer is an owner-operator who steps in and runs this personally — and who will immediately recognize the labor-recapture opportunity that comes with doing so. Why This Works for the Right Buyer: The business currently operates Thursday through Sunday only — four days a week. An owner-operator who expands to a full week, adds school group events, or activates daytime programming has a clear and immediate path to significantly higher revenue with zero additional capital investment. The buildout is done. The equipment is in place. The 514 active clients — all of whom have returned more than once — are already there. What Transfers: Full build-out of 2,671 SF suite (contractor work, tile, custom theming, neon signs, exterior signage) | All FF&E — pedicure benches and bowls, manicure tables, salon chairs, party furniture, DIY stations, electronics, appliances | Active franchise agreement — brand, operations manual, franchisor training, and protected territory (franchise name and details disclosed post-NDA) | Active client database — 514 clients with documented repeat visits | 8 part-time staff — trained and in place | Social media presence and local brand recognition Lease: Suite lease on the I-10 corridor in Boerne expires February 28, 2029, with one 5-year renewal option. Base rent $6,419/mo + NNN approximately $1,626/mo — confirmed at mid-market for this corridor. Lease is assignable with landlord consent. Franchise: Active franchise agreement — transfer fee $10,000 paid by buyer. Royalty 5% of gross revenue. No marketing fund obligation. Franchisee currently in good standing. Franchisor approval of incoming buyer required. Full franchise details disclosed post-NDA. Ideal Buyer: Owner-operator — ideally with a background in children's services, hospitality, or personal care. This is not a passive investment. The growth story here belongs to the person who shows up and runs it. Absentee ownership is not recommended given the operational model. Next Step: NDA required before financial details, business name, location, and franchise details are released. Contact AZUL Advisors to request the NDA. Serious, qualified inquiries only. PRICING BASIS: This is an asset sale priced on the fair market value of transferable assets. Assets include leasehold improvements, all FF&E, the active franchise, and the lease. The asking price is $107,000. Financial details provided to NDA-qualified buyers.
Available for immediate acquisition is a two-unit portfolio of a premier, modern children’s haircare brand. Strategically anchored in Nashville’s most affluent family corridors—Green Hills and Cool Springs—this business has successfully moved the "kids' cut" from a commodity service to a high-end boutique experience. The current ownership has completed the heavy capital investment phase, spending nearly $600,000 on prime real estate build-outs, site selection, and brand positioning. This is a "Right-Sizing" opportunity for a disciplined owner-operator to step into a fully-staffed, turnkey infrastructure and apply professional management to drive immediate bottom-line performance. Investment Highlights "Tier 1" Real Estate Footprint: Secured long-term leases in the heart of Nashville’s highest-HHI (Household Income) zip codes. These locations are protected by high barriers to entry and provide built-in access to the target demographic. Significant Asset Value: The high-end, minimalist build-outs and custom fixtures are in pristine condition, offering a buyer the ability to own two locations for a fraction of the current replacement/construction cost. Third License Included: The acquisition price includes a pre-approved third location license, providing a clear path to scale and the ability to amortize management costs across a larger footprint. Boutique Revenue Model: A diversified income stream including premium $40+ haircuts, high-margin "experience" add-ons, and a curated retail gallery of non-toxic family products. The Ideal Buyer Profile Initially this is not a "passive" investment; it is a StrategicTurnaround Opportunity. This portfolio is best suited for an owner with: Operational Discipline: The ability to audit and optimize labor structures and cost of goods. Marketing Vision: An understanding of how to leverage Nashville’s dense family-influencer networks to drive chair occupancy. Expansion Mindset: A buyer ready to execute the third location and dominate the Middle Tennessee market. Why This Acquisition? For the price of a single new-build startup, an investor can bypass 12+ months of construction delays and skyrocketing build-out costs to own a two-unit platform with immediate cash flow. The "hard work" of the startup phase is complete; the opportunity now lies in sophisticated execution.

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating beauty and personal care business acquisitions.
If stylists rent chairs or own their following, you may be buying a name and a build-out, not a client base. Understand the compensation model before you value the revenue.
Your providers are the business; remove two key technicians and you have a lease and some chairs. Review who's contracted and who could walk down the street.
Recurring memberships and retail product are stickier and higher-margin than walk-ins. Get the mix and price the recurring portion differently.
Cosmetology licenses, sanitation records, and inspection history are real liabilities. Confirm the business and its providers are current and clean.
Foot traffic, parking, and a transferable lease drive a salon or spa, and remaining term can matter more than the equipment.
Tables, spa and tanning equipment, and the build-out wear and date quickly. Know what needs refreshing to keep clients coming.
