OWNER MOVING OUT OF STATE = DEAL OF LIFETIME
(The owner already invested $450k into the buildout, franchise fees, etc. but is ONLY asking $75,000. That's a $375k SAVINGS!!!!)
Why is FF&E ($129,460) worth more than the business asking price ($75,000)??? Great question and good eye. If you were looking for a perfect storm for getting a crazy good deal on buying into a business where the operations are already existing (franchise) and you can just plug and play….well you’ve found it. And no there’s no catch. The owner started this franchise with his lovely wife and have been enjoying starting up this territory in Gilbert, AZ. They are hitting the startup numbers and if they could, would stay to realize the growth. However, they are moving out of state and want to sell their franchise license rights and assets, so they are looking to sell at a “catch your eye” deal.

They are just entering their busy season.
