I've got some money to buy, and she's got experience growing someone else's lawn care business. we may like working together. between us I've only mowed my own lawn a few times shabbily and repaired my equipment, no pro, but I'm mechanical. But that doesn't really matter as our idea is to go straight into commercial, and set it up (ideally) so that we won't be having to touch the equipment. But of course we could if need be, and I enjoy it myself, but I wouldn't employ myself to do it.
If we purchase this current one for sale, 10k cash, we'd get equipment and I assume crew, still have yet to meet, for 60 accounts, I believe mostly residential, then some commercial. I'll also assume we'll have a couple guys with licences with trucks, but for some reason she's planning that we'll need to hire someone. I'm wondering if this is currently in business why everything wouldn't already be in place. Supposedly we should be able to make our money back within a few months at most. Sounds about right, but we'll see.
So what should we look into generally, and specifically with this potential purchase? What are the a,b,c's of this? Thanks
