    As an entrepreneur I am always looking for different types of investments in order to generate a great return on my money. I love the car wash business but they are becoming harder to find so Im looking at other investment opportunities.
    I wanted a similar business model as to where it would generate passive income with little work on my behalf once I've built the business up and put the right team in place. I realized laundromats fit that mould so I started researching them and learnt as much as I could online but now its time to get out into the real world and put what I have learnt into action.
    Laundromats provide that passive income where only 2 days a week is needed with the right employee in place just like a self serve car wash business.
    Check out the video and follow me along today of me scouting for coin laundries for and as I was scouting laundromats I stumbled across a self serve car wash completely shut down and what appears to be a perfect deal in my mind!
    After working for my Uncle for 2 years at he's car washes I really wanted my own and I came across this car wash. It was completely shutdown for many years so I approached the owner of the land and made a deal with him.
    It took me 6 weeks to bring it back to life and open it and now the customers are starting to pour in. Not to mention I opened it during winter so I am yet. to see its full potential but here's a small taste of how its going so far!

    I actually started with looking for laundry center locations, then saw that car washes are in a similar category, with even less capital & labor, potentially. One of the reasons I was looking for laundry locations was for the real estate itself. Even if I couldn’t get the land/building right away, I’m trying for a lease/option or even just a right of first refusal so I have a leg up when they do decide to sell. Because it likely will seem far off & if structured right, a win for the owner, I’m confident I can make them happen. Hopefully it can work for you, especially when real estate goes on sale!

      Absolutely Thomas. The goal is always to own land/building. That way can always receive rent if ya ever get tired of running the business and wanna sell it.

    If anybody out there sees this, don't waste your time going through looplet trying to contact the broker. Instead what you need to do is look the address up at your county tax appraiser's office. The owners information will be right there on public record with an address. Just go directly to the owner skip the broker. Most of the time those listings are really old anyway

    Hi Chris, looking forward to you eventually getting a laundromat... If done properly, I've seen people get around at least 40% profit margin. With such a price difference between car washes and laundromats, do you think car washes are that much better?

    • @CarWashChronicles
      @CarWashChronicles  3 года назад +1

      I wouldn’t say they’re that much better I would say they are a very similar model and comes back to the deal. Weather there are finance repayments involved or not. But my profit margins are great in car washes and if I can match them with a laundromat then I would be very interested in laundromats

    Police for a welfare check on the individual whom you see part of.
    City inspectors, for the door not locking, and the obvious conditions. Trash and graffiti.
    Talk to the neighbor businesses on the other side of the white chain link fence. Get some allies next door to put pressure on the owner. Their business is suffering because of this danger.

      And, that's it... straw broken. I'm coming to visit you. What part of Australia are your car washes? @Car Wash Chronicles - As for this Car wash; I would call the land owner and attempt to negotiate the LONG TERM LEASE of the business ONLY. My take; "You are trying to sell the land and the business to a very small niche currently. How many investors want the hassle of operating a car wash? If you lease the business to me you would then be selling to a wider market. Folks who want to own a corner cap in a brilliant area. Investors who are looking to buy and hold dirt! The worst he could say is "yes"!

    • @CarWashChronicles
      @CarWashChronicles  2 года назад

      Great point! I’ve learnt a bunch on negotiations from you. Been in talks for many months as you say patience is sometimes the best approach. They want ridiculous amount of rent and seem firm on it. I’ll let it sit a few more months. Let homeless get worse and the trash can build up some more. Let the city contact them to clean it up. I’m here when they want the headache to disappear.
