    The lease could be due to the fact the lanes are not owned by the person selling. The snack bar could be the only physical part of the property you can legally buy.

    I know a lot of restaurants lease most of their equipment, so when they sell they legally can't sell the equipment but they can sell the building and you have the option to lease the equipment. We just recently purchased two new fryers at my restaurant and they were 3 grand each. The worst part is they are nothing special just a 50lb 2 basket fryer those fancy mcdonalds fryers are $20,000+

    So by looking at the home lane prices $180,000+ for a pair of lanes times 6 pairs comes out to roughly 1.1 million dollars. Not many people have that cash to start a business. The only way to start the business would be to get a lease.

    Makes sense Davec13! That's likely the case.

    Ohhh if I only had the money for this, I'd be on the phone right now asking these very same questions. Come on, lottery ticket! Daddy wants his very own bowling alley!

    40K isn't that bad though. That's not even a decent new car nowadays. With that little kitchen you could make a killing, if you know how to cook that is.

    The true question would be what is involved in the lease. How much per month, is there a per frame payment involved, who has to service the lanes, ect, ect.
