Franchised solar and battery business in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Turnover tripled to $3.66 million in FY26 on the first full year of the federal home battery program. No premises, no stock, no payroll.
· Residential solar and battery sales and installation across Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, trading as a franchisee of a national network since July 2022
· Every job managed end to end, from enquiry through installation, rebate processing and handover
· FY26 turnover of $3.66 million, up from $1.08 million in FY25, delivered across 144 completed installations averaging approximately $25,400
· Seller's discretionary earnings of $396,303 in FY26
· Revenue arrived in every month of the year, with eleven of twelve months clearing $100,000 in sales
· No single month carried the year — the strongest month represented less than a fifth of annual sales
· No premises, no stock and no payroll; every function delivered by contractors or outsourced providers paid per hour, per job or per sale
· Fixed overhead of just 2.91% of turnover — customer acquisition (4.1%) and franchise royalty (4.2%) both scale with sales, so a quiet month costs little
· Customer acquisition returned approximately $5.40 of gross profit for every $1 spent, at roughly $5,600 of gross profit per job — growth through marketing is a tested lever, not a gamble
· Perfect 5.0 customer rating on Google, in a category where trust decides which quote wins
· Referral is the largest single lead channel, supplying approximately a third of all enquiries
· Demand is legislated rather than cyclical: a $7.2 billion federal program funded to 2030, alongside a $557 million NSW zero-interest loan scheme that opened thirteen days before FY27 began
· The business has not yet traded a single full year with both programs in place
· Established national franchise platform supplying brand, CRM, training, technical support and allocated leads
· Owner is no longer involved in sales or installation, both delegated to a contracted project manager and project coordinator; his remaining role is strategic; he was outside Australia for six weeks during FY26 while the business traded on this structure
· Asking $650,000 outright, or a 49% equity partnership at $318,500 — the owner's preferred structure
