Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The property consists of a retail automotive use building totaling approximately 3,264 square feet and a used car sales and service lot that holds approximately 50 to 60 vehicles. The interior includes two office areas, a waiting room, a break room, and 4.5 bathrooms. There are two storage lofts, and two lifts are noted as remaining with the property. The overhead garage doors are 12x14, supporting vehicle-ready access to the building.

The offering is located at 969 Union Avenue in Laconia, NH, and the public remarks note a high traffic count. The parcel is just shy of an acre, with the outdoor lot configured for ongoing vehicle display and customer flow.

This configuration is well suited for an owner-operator or investor seeking a turn-key automotive site that already supports used vehicle sales alongside light service or repair. The combination of drive-in overhead doors, office and customer areas, and multiple restrooms can support day-to-day operations without requiring immediate layout changes.
