What should I check before buying a service station?

Check the lease and fuel supply agreement (years remaining, options, rent reviews and who maintains the tanks), verified fuel volumes and shop gross margin, the owner's real earnings (EBITDA), and the site's environmental history, including recent tank and line integrity tests. Ask for these under a confidentiality deed before making an offer.

Can I get finance to buy a service station?

Yes. Lenders look at the business's financial statements, the lease and supply agreements and your experience. Freehold sites are usually easier to finance because the land is security. Make My Loan, Servo For Sale's finance partner, can compare lenders and arrange pre-approval.
