Brand New Car Wash – Business & Real Estate Included
Price: $3,690,000
Property Type: Retail – Car Wash
Address: 9801 Campognani St, Bakersfield, CA 93313
Sale Type: Owner/User or Investment
Property & Business Overview
Rare opportunity to acquire a brand-new, state-of-the-art car wash with property and business included in the sale. The car wash is strategically located next to Starbucks and behind an ARCO Gas Station, with excellent access from Highway 99 and Hwy 119 (Taft Hwy) in South Bakersfield.
The seller invested approximately $4.5 million to develop and construct this facility and is now offering it for sale at $3,690,000, representing a significant loss to the seller and a below-replacement-cost opportunity for a buyer.
The property was originally built for the seller’s son to operate; however, due to a relocation out of state, the seller no longer has an operator in place. The car wash is currently absentee owned, creating an excellent opportunity for an owner-operator to step in and maximize operations and profitability.
