Property Description
A rare opportunity awaits — a thriving, well-established auto repair business with 41 years of continuous operation in the same prime location! Effingham Auto Repair is now available for sale, offering both the business and the real estate together in one turnkey package. This fully operational business comes complete with all shop inventory, 7 professional car lifts, experienced mechanics, fully integrated office systems, and a trained support staff — everything you need to open your doors and start generating revenue on day one. The spacious facility features up to 7 dedicated mechanic workstations, a comfortable employee breakroom, a well-stocked supply and parts room, and organized office areas to keep operations running smoothly. The main building spans an impressive 7,080 square feet, complemented by two large covered lean-to's at the rear of the property — ideal for protecting vehicles and equipment from the elements — along with a generous fenced-in yard for additional storage or staging. The property consists of 4 parcels totaling 2.52 acres, providing ample room for future expansion and growth. Detailed financial records are available for qualified buyers following the acceptance of a preliminary offer and the signing of a confidentiality agreement.
