Executive Summary

A rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey self-service automotive workshop in Budapest that already generates stable recurring income and operates with minimal owner involvement.

This business is built around a proven and efficient model where professional mechanics rent fully equipped workspaces while the workshop also serves a steady flow of customers. The result is a reliable monthly cash flow and a business that largely operates on its own.

The workshop currently operates with four active vehicle lifts rented by professional mechanics, providing consistent rental income, while additional revenue is generated from customers using the service facilities. Even without active management, the business produces a stable monthly profit, making it an attractive opportunity for both entrepreneurs and investors.

The business is sold as a complete turnkey package, including an established company structure, operational workshop infrastructure, existing mechanics, customer flow, and a functioning online platform that attracts daily visitors and generates new clients.

One of the strongest advantages of this opportunity is its significant growth potential. The current premises of approximately 470 m² allow the installation of additional vehicle lifts, and there is already demand from mechanics interested in renting workspace. With minimal investment, the business can substantially increase its monthly revenue.

In addition to the operational business, the company also rents a modern two-room apartment near Móricz Zsigmond Square, allowing the new owner to relocate and begin managing the business immediately after acquisition.

This opportunity is ideal for:

  • automotive professionals looking to own their own workshop
  • entrepreneurs seeking a stable income-generating business in Europe
  • investors searching for a cash-flow asset with growth potential
  • buyers relocating to the EU who want both business and accommodation ready from day one

The business is currently operating successfully and generating steady income. It is being offered for sale due to a change in the owner’s strategic focus.

Overall, this is a secure and scalable business opportunity combining passive income, an established operational model, and strong potential for expansion in one of Europe’s most dynamic automotive markets.
