We’re bringing back a listener favorite: a seasonal Christmas tree lot in Southern Utah County listed for $65K, with $29K in cash flow on $85K in revenue. It includes $2K in equipment, $1,750 in inventory, and seller financing at 5%.

With 10+ years in business and a loyal customer base, it sounds promising—until you find out there's no guaranteed location or lease. That one detail sparks a lively debate on whether this is a low-risk side hustle or a logistically doomed venture.

Michael, Bill, and Heather break down the seasonal business model, the importance of location in retail, and whether this business is worth buying—or just replicating from scratch.
