I am now working as an engineer in the Twin Cities, but have plans of moving to Austin, TX with my wife to house-hack and work in the more plentiful tech market over there. 

Does anyone have or know any resources for analyzing car washes?

Hey, Has anyone here invested in passiveinvesting.com's PIC5 car wash fund? 

Quote from @Dallas Hoover: Want to acquire a self-car wash within Dallas Texas area. 

@Phil SheltonYou would need a civil engineer to provide a drawing to get submitted to zoning and get a permit if it passes zoning is most common This also depends on the road - if it’s a state road forget it as it will take a year to get approved and cost a fortune - if it’s a local road process not as cumbersome but don’t expect this to happen quicklyIn some instances you may have to prepare sight distances etc to make sure it’s safe to add a curb cut

You don't need to be larger than life, driving flashy cars, or using your looks to make a sale.

Next time I'll start with the engineer.  

You will probably want to engage an engineer to provide an engineered plan for the lots and attorney who frequently presents variance cases.

No, DIY is not the same as a virtual site visit or a study done by engineers @Dana YobstAs @V.G Jason said, you could very likely cost yourself more in time and money.

I’m a professional civil engineer with years of experience in construction and entrepreneurship.
