Laundry in Multifamily's Laundry. Chicago Northside
Ordered my new laundry machines this week. Tenants are very excited.
For the folks that have buildings on the Northside of Chicago with laundry facilities for tenants what do you charge for a wash and a dry ?
I have not been to a Laundry place in maybe 20yrs. No idea what they cost.

I went with coin op.
To hedge my bets I bought the washers new (3) and the dryers used (3). All SpeedQueen Commercial as I hear they hold up much better than Whirlpool or Maytag which I believe as I am not a fan of either of those 2 brands even for domestic appliances.
Went with $1.50 Wash $1.00 Dry on the southside and $2.50 Wash and $1.00 Dry northside...mostly because the plumbing and electric work needed at the northside location was much more expensive. I will be years trying to recoup the investment but it enhances the building overall and will keep tenants happier I guess.
