Business Description

This self-service laundromat is located in a high-traffic Houston area and has been well maintained. It operates with minimal staffing and limited day-to-day oversight, making it a practical value-add opportunity for an owner-operator or hands-on investor.

In 2025, the business generated approximately $94,128 in gross sales and operated near break-even, with seller’s discretionary earnings just under $2,000. While current cash flow is modest, the primary value lies in the existing buildout and infrastructure, allowing a buyer to avoid the cost, time, and risk of developing a new laundromat from scratch.

The facility is fully built out with commercial-grade washers and dryers and all major utilities in place, including plumbing, gas, electrical, and venting. Based on current Houston pricing, building a comparable 2,000-square-foot laundromat today would likely require an investment of approximately $750,000 to $900,000. The installed equipment represents an estimated $220,000 in replacement value, excluding the substantial utility work already completed.

The layout also allows for the addition of approximately six additional machines without expanding the footprint, creating a straightforward path to increase capacity and revenue. Additional upside exists through pricing adjustments, improved machine utilization, and expansion of wash-and-fold and delivery services. A delivery van is included.

Given current operating performance, this opportunity is best suited for a cash buyer who understands the laundromat space and is looking to acquire an established location with barriers to entry already addressed, where returns are driven by operational improvements rather than new construction.
