Chuck Post a long time coin laundry consultant and laundry broker discusses in his latest article - the factors of appraising California coin laundries. Chuck claims,  "The coin laundry is an all-cash, necessity of life service business. What could be better? Yet, understanding how the business justifies such a high purchase price is baffling.  In fact, many times the value is so misunderstood that it results in investors over-paying. Sometimes grossly over-paying." Read this article and see what factors go into the pricing of California coin laundries.

I am looking to buy a bar, primarily with a 48 license, but would consider a beer bar with no food requirement. It must be located in Los Angeles County. I have $100K for a down payment, however I am interested in determining an appropriate down payment through negotiations, for either a larger or smaller amount. I require an owner's benefit of at least $55K a year, and the business must produce enough to cover any loan payments I've incurred from its purchase. The price ranges I've been searching are between $100k to $500k, but I am looking for a stable business, with steady cash flow and income. If the business is outside of my price criteria, I would be interested in negotiating a range of possible financing options. I am most interested in seller financing, but should this not be viable, I have other means of financing. I have not been pre-qualified for SBA financing, but will be inquiring. I am able to present a personal financial statement and background letter to interested sellers. My background is varied and this will be my first time buying a business. I am very motivated and hope to be running my new business with in six months. I currently reside in the South Bay of Los Angeles.
