Investment Thesis
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly automated, cash-flowing entertainment venue in the Chattanooga market. Designed for maximum efficiency, this game room currently operates on a near-absentee basis, requiring only 2 hours per week of owner oversight.
With an asking price of $300,000 and a documented cash flow of $93,000, this business offers a strong return on investment for a passive investor or a massive income boost for an owner-operator. The business is fully staffed, streamlined, and located in a stable market with limited direct competition.
Operational Excellence & Low Overhead
- Near-Absentee Model: The business is powered by a reliable team of 5 part-time employees, allowing the owner to focus on high-level oversight rather than daily shifts.
- Exceptional Rent Structure: Total occupancy costs are just $1,904/month (base + fees). The landlord has already verbally signaled a willingness to extend the lease through 2029 with minimal annual increases ($50/year), ensuring long-term margin protection.
- Turnkey Assets: The sale includes all gaming equipment, furniture, fixtures, and established operating systems. Everything required to continue generating revenue from Day 1 is included.
- The "Owner-Operator" Upside
While the business thrives under passive ownership, a hands-on owner could significantly increase the bottom line:
- Immediate Cash Flow Boost: By stepping in to cover weekday shifts, an owner-operator can increase monthly cash flow by an estimated $2,500 – $3,500.
Optimization Potential: Opportunities exist to further increase profitability through localized marketing initiatives and refined staffing schedules.
