High-Growth Collision Center With Dealership Agree

Business Overview:

Rare opportunity to acquire a fully operational collision center in a prime Southern California market. This business runs under an absentee ownership model, supported by a skilled team of 19 employees, including 16 technicians and a tenured manager plus dedicated support staff. Long-standing dealership and insurance agreements are in place, and two major new contracts have just been signed, positioning the business for accelerated growth in the months ahead.

All spray booth permits are grandfathered in—an increasingly rare advantage as the City of Riverside no longer issues new permits, further protecting the competitive moat. Optional real estate is available, including two high-traffic parcels, each utilized at their highest and best use.

This is an ideal acquisition for a visionary leader or strategic operator ready to capitalize on a business that’s already gaining momentum.

Property Features and Assets:

Established in 2019 by the family originally intended for it to be an in-house repair solution for their car loaner share programs. Recognizing the high return on investment within the body repair industry, the two expanded operations to serve external clients. Becoming a Direct Repair Facility for a well-known insurance provider has been key to the business’s success. The Direct Repair Facility status prompted the owners to invest in advanced equipment, transforming the business into a comprehensive collision center.

Market Competition and Expansion:

This collision center has established market dominance. Its commitment to high-volume B2B relationships and professional facility standards has created substantial barriers to entry, allowing it to maintain premium positioning in a competitive market. The business consistently outperforms industry peers by delivering faster turnaround times, strict quality control, and leveraging a comprehensive team of specialists across every stage of the repair process. Additionally, its grandfathered spray booth permit—a rare asset in a downtown location—provides a significant operational edge not available to newer entrants.

This opportunity includes two fully equipped buildings already operating under grandfathered spray booth permits—an increasingly rare asset in the city of Riverside, where no new licenses are being issued. A third nearby property, also permitted, is available separately and could be added to further increase capacity or expand service lines. In addition, the business has just secured two major new blue-chip clientele contracts, with revenue streams that are only beginning to ramp up. A new owner could maintain the current absentee model or step in directly to drive exponential growth through operational oversight, marketing, and deeper dealer relationships. With limited regional competition and unmatched infrastructure in place, the growth potential is both immediate and long-term.
