This is a premier opportunity to acquire a fully established, turnkey property styling and staging business servicing the fast-growing Geelong and Bellarine areas.
Operating successfully for 15 years as the first property styling business in the region, it boasts strong, long-term relationships with local real estate agents, as well as smaller builders and developers. The business owns a massive inventory of high-end stock, providing the capacity to fully style up to 35 properties simultaneously, resulting in over 150 properties styled annually.
The business operates from a 330m² industrial warehouse conveniently located just 2km from the Geelong CBD, ensuring easy logistical access to all surrounding suburbs.
Currently functioning on a highly streamlined system, the operation requires only 2 to 3 days (up to 4 days) of work per week from Monday to Friday, heavily driven by strong agent referrals. The owner handles quoting, logistics, and styling—occasionally utilizing an assistant—while larger installations are seamlessly outsourced to a local transport team highly skilled in this specific work.

With the owner retiring, this asset offers significant, immediate expansion opportunities for an incoming operator. A new owner can easily scale operations by expanding into adjacent regions such as the Surf Coast (including Anglesea), Werribee, Hoppers Creek, and Point Cook.
Further revenue streams can be unlocked by introducing partial styling options, offering stock purchasing to property owners, or simply raising the current pricing structure, which sits comfortably at 25% lower than the competition without any risk of losing sales. Improved marketing beyond the current Instagram and Facebook presence will also drive immediate growth in one of Australia's fastest-growing regional corridors.
To ensure a highly successful transition, the vendor is offering 2 months of comprehensive training, covering all operational procedures, inventory management, and direct introductions to the key network of real estate referrers.
