FEATURED RESALE
Franchise resales possess many benefits for aspiring business owners – established cash flow, experienced employees, systems in place, and brand awareness to name a few.
This week, our featured resale comes from Five Star Painting, a residential and commercial painting franchise that offers both interior and exterior services. Five Star Painting, a Neighborly brand, has been franchising since 2007 and has 230 units throughout the country.
Sarasota, FL
-
Asking price of $199,900
-
Reduced significantly since original listing – open to offers
-
2023 Revenue of $660,000
-
Opened July 2018
-
Residential and commercial customers
-
2 employees
-
The owner has two other businesses and does not have time to dedicate to the franchise
Franchise Empire’s Take:
- This resale opportunity has been on the market for several months. Five Star Painting is a solid brand within the Neighborly umbrella. According to the most recent FDD, the Item 19 shows an average job size for painting projects to be $4,436.
- The business model typically uses subcontractors to do the actual painting jobs, which can keep your overhead and salaried labor low. If interested in this resale opportunity, we suggest understanding the current employees’ roles in the business and how many subcontractors the business has in rotation to utilize.
- Lastly, Sarasota is a fast-growing area with seemingly a lot of potential. It seems like an opportunity to get into a turnkey home services franchise and grow it quickly.

CLIENT CASE STUDY
About a year ago we had a guy come to us who was in software sales, looking at franchises for a while and what just stuck in the process.
He didn’t really know how to find or vet the franchises, was doing research on his own but not really making the progress he wanted.
He had some doubts around not just if he could find the right franchise, but if he could succeed.
He joined our Zero to Profitable Franchise mastermind, and, in less than 90 days, he had become a franchisee.
I just received a text message that less than into a year into his business he had a month doing $150k in sales.
It’s really something for the average person that wants to be an entrepreneur. It is hard to pull off without a system that a franchisor provides.
*To maintain compliance we will not share the exact franchise brand, as we can only share numbers that are in the Financial Disclosure Document’s Item 19.
