Does buying OLD GMB and re-changing category and name even work?

Is it possible to keep a location of a GMB but change the entirety of the contents or would it flag google heavily? Anyone tried?

Yes it works if you do changes for one time, yeah reupdate them again n again then will ban.

If you completely rebrand an old GMB now it’s almost certain to get suspended. Google’s system flags heavy changes fast and you’ll end up stuck in video verification or reinstatement with docs. That’s basically how they handle it these days, so safer option is always to start a fresh profile for the new business.
