A one-person shop can still send a request; working capital and equipment financing are two places such a request can begin.
Buying a business for sale in Seguin, TX: gas stations and quick-service restaurants
Buying a gas station or a quick-service restaurant for sale in Seguin means pricing the business, its equipment and its lease or real estate together. For a station, the fuel supply agreement, the tank records and the store's sales by category are part of the price; for a restaurant, the franchise transfer terms and the lease years left matter as much as the kitchen.
A term loan pays the seller at closing, sometimes alongside a seller note. Gasoline stations counted 58 employers in Guadalupe County, TX in 2023, 29 of them in ZIP 78155 (CBP and ZBP).

Leasing commercial property in Guadalupe County, TX as a machine shop
A machine shop leasing space in Guadalupe County is renting power, crane capacity, floor load, door height and yard space as much as square feet. Before signing, ask for the building's electrical service, any crane or hoist ratings, and whether the zoning allows the planned use. The lease term matters to a lender too: a lathe financed over six years sits uneasily in a building leased for two.
Property values and ownership records are kept by the Guadalupe Appraisal District. Ask the office how to request records and whether any fee applies.
