Price ÷ profit (seller's figures)—Needs the asking price and yearly profit
Description
Massage / reflexology business in McKinnon, Melbourne, established 2019. Size: about 80 m². Rent A$577 a week. Whether stock is included is still to be confirmed. Features: recently renovated.
The seller keeps the business name, street address and financial records (BAS, POS and P&L notes) private. Request them, and you can see them once the seller approves.
Questions worth asking before an inspection, based on the seller's figures. It does not judge the business and is not a valuation or advice — rely on the actual records.
No revenue figure given — ask for POS reports or the last 12 months of BAS before inspecting.
No net profit given, so the price-to-profit ratio cannot be worked out.
The remaining lease term is not given.
Questions to ask the seller before you inspect
Can you provide the last 12 months of BAS, POS reports and bank statements?
The lease itself: term left, options, annual increases and who pays outgoings?
Will the landlord consent to the assignment? Is there a bond or bank guarantee to transfer?
How are staff wages, contracts and accrued annual leave handled?
Is there an equipment list, and is anything leased or under hire purchase?
Any unpaid bills, fines, complaints or health-inspection issues?
Which licences or council permits are needed, and does the booking system transfer?
