Have you ever wondered how to find self serve car washes to buy? Check out this video because I'm going to share with you my approach on how I find car washes to buy. They say the best deals are always off market from buyer to buyer and in my experience that is very true.
This is one of the most common questions I get asked. How did you find your car wash? Im excited to share with you my process. I believe the coin op car wash business is one of the best business's to free up your time and do the things you enjoy in life the most. Car wash business's are a great investment when run the right way and can provide fantastic returns on your investment with minimal hours worked in a week. A great source of passive income.
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 have attempted to look into car washes for sale, however at the start of when I was looking, was when a lot of SS/IBA washes around me all sold. There was one I was really looking into that was never listed online, however one day on the auditor's website, it shown a warranty deed to the parent company of the car dealership next door to it. Despite that happening back in April, they have not done one thing with the place yet to this day besides removing the lighted sign covers.

Chris, great content and I appreciate you taking the time to educate us on the ins and outs of starting a car wash business. I am curious and maybe you can use this for a future video, but did you go shopping for a defunct car wash first, or did you have your finances set aside before you started looking. Did you get a business license before you purchased your first car wash or did you do all of this afterwards? Did you ever consider buying new versus already established? Thanks again and I look forward to your next episode.

Thanks William. Appreciate it. Will definitely do a future video. I had finances in place but wasn’t a huge amount but enough to get started and reinvest profits. I got the business license after I got the car wash as it was an already existing it wasn’t an issue with the city. Havnt considered buying new as that’s a whole another ball game but I figured already established car washes were an easier starting point into the business.

I found a car wash listed for sale online and it is a run down car wash, but still operational. I used a real estate agent to get some info, but I have yet to sign anything with that agent. I was thinking of doing what you suggested and leave a note under the door and see if the seller would contact me directly. Since, I have no obligation to the agent, I don't see anything wrong with trying to do it without a buyer's agent. However, my guess is the seller will default to their seller agent. What do you think? Should I leave the note and try it?

In my opinion it’s just different type of customers. I’m sure there’s plenty of people who use both anyway. I think they may have went out of business because they weren’t run properly with everything a self serve can offer. I have 3 full serve tunnel car washes all within 1 mile of mine and nine is consistently growing every month because I give a great product. Also it’s in the high desert where big trucks and RV’s come in with mud so they like to scrub themselves. And I charge $2 for 4 mins so people have the option to quick wash whereas the tunnel is I think $6. Ive never worried about tunnels near mine.

Yes I can do a video on that for sure but basically it’s just negotiating on the terms with the seller and then the seller will usually draft up a contract either for sale or the business or a lease agreement or in some instances both “buy the business, rent the land” then once signed then basically you get the keys and take over. Then time to set up all things with the city (water in your name etc) get insurance and all that jazz

@CarWashChronicles

I think would depend on the location. If it’s super busy road might be worth it. Just have to weigh up how much you think only 2 bays would make. If it can make $8k a month probably work it but if it’s quieter road and the state you’re in has more bad weather than good and might only make 4K per month plus all the day to day operations of running it than it might not be worth it and the rent might be better but if it’s great location and potentially can make 8k month then I’d go with the self serve bays

Yes. That’s how I got my 3. They were closed down for many years. Got a lease from the owner of the land (landlord) and started paying rent. Renovated it and built it up ready for open. Those are the best dead because there’s no purchase price. Free car wash. Go for it man.

If you're still looking to buy a car wash location, I have a client in Pennsylvania who has one that he's open to selling. I've made an attempt to wholesale it together with my former investor partner but he cut himself out. If you're not buying but you know other car wash buyers who still want to buy let me know.
