Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This former Pingel Tire auto shop totals 12,000 square feet and is laid out as two distinct shop areas, supporting an owner-user setup or separate-tenant configuration. The north shop includes a 72' x 60' shop with three stalls, plus an approximately 750-square-foot office/showroom. The north space also has a bathroom and overhead doors for vehicle access. The south shop measures 58' x 73' and includes two stalls, providing additional service capacity within the same building.

The property is located at 1903 1st Avenue North in Fort Dodge, IA. The overhead doors in both shop areas support straightforward drive-in operations for customer-facing service and light repair work.

For mechanics, service businesses, or operators who need dedicated shop space, the split layout allows flexibility in how the spaces are used. The north unit’s office/showroom component can support customer interactions, while the separate south shop can function as additional shop capacity or as a self-contained space for another tenant. The building’s configuration also offers flexibility for an investor or buyer looking to manage more than one operating area under a single roof.
