Hi All - I am interested in buying a fully operational gym. It is about 15k sq ft and has a 5 lane lap pool. The revenue is $900k per year and the owner total take home is $ 195k a year.
The whole facility is leased - just signed a new lease this year with a slight monthly increase ( not enough where it makes that much difference ). Lease is 10 years with an optional renewal for another 10 years.
All the equipment in the gym is very very old but it works. I would estimate the book value of the equipment to be zero. I’m sure the next owner would need to make some new equipment purchases.
The owner is not involved in the day to day operations and drops by once per week to check on things.
What do you think would be a fair market selling price for this business??
( I would of course get an appraisal from a professional if I decided to move forward )
Buy it OP. Turn a portion of the gym into pickleball and your membership could increase by 20% easily.
