Launder mat / Tanning Salon

[Jessica Monroe]

We're currently under contract on a business + building. Launder mat, tanning salon. The Launder mat is currently outsourcing dry cleaning but possibly bring it in house in the future. We will be managing the business including part time employees and the day to day. Anyone who is in this space would love any tips or pointers. 

Thank you in advance!

Be VERY cautious bringing dry cleaning into the business. No pun intended but you can really get taken to the cleaners. Can result in enormously costly issues stemming from chemicals leaching into the soil and cost well into six figures or more to remediate. There is a dry cleaners here that went up for sale recently for like 1/10th of what it's likely worth bc the owner leased to a dry cleaners and this happened. Now he can't even sell the property for the value in the land.
