Budget estimate

$20,000 – $100,000

Because the opportunity is a purchase rather than a service contract, the client’s “earnings” would come from reselling or repurposing the acquired assets. Assuming the buyer purchases a mix of mid‑range items (e.g., generators, tools, trucks) with a total acquisition cost of roughly $15‑$20 k and can resale them at a 30‑50 % markup, the potential gross profit could range from $5 k to $10 k. If the buyer also secures the high‑value bus ($10 k minimum) and adds a modest refurbishment margin, the upside could approach $25 k‑$40 k. Therefore, a reasonable ballpark profit estimate is $20 k to $100 k, depending on the mix of items, refurbishment costs, and market demand.
