Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This offering combines the underlying retail property and a well-established, family-owned laundromat business, sold together as a turnkey operation. The facility includes 23 washers, featuring several high-capacity machines that accommodate up to 60 pounds, along with 20 dryers. In addition to self-service laundry, the business provides wash-and-fold service by the pound. The operation also generates ancillary income through an ATM, snack vending machine, and beverage vending machine.

The laundromat is situated in a densely populated residential neighborhood with surrounding homes, apartments, restaurants, and local businesses. A bus stop for Routes 25 and 375 is located directly in front of the property, and ample street parking is available for customer convenience.

For a new owner, this is a practical owner-operator or tenant-buyer setup because the business is already running and benefits from recent improvements, including newer heating and air conditioning systems installed in 2025, a new coin change machine, a newer basement hot water heater, and a newer basement access door. Previous pickup and delivery services have been discontinued, which may appeal to an operator looking to reintroduce that service line if desired. Financials are available upon request.

Key Highlights

  • Turnkey laundromat business sold together with the underlying real estate
  • Equipment includes 23 washers (high‑capacity up to 60‑lb) and 20 dryers plus wash‑and‑fold by the pound
  • Recent upgrades include 2025 heating and air conditioning, new coin change machine, newer basement hot water heater, and newer basement access door

Financial Insights

Estimated NOI and Cap Rate

NOI = area × lease_rate × (100 − vacancy) / 100 × (1 − expense_ratio). Net Operating Income — what the owner takes home each year before mortgage payments and income tax. Effective rent (asking rent minus vacancy losses) minus operating costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, management).
NOI / Yr
$43,486
Cap rate = NOI / list price × 100. Capitalization rate — annual return on a fully cash purchase, before financing. NOI divided by price. Higher means more income per dollar invested, but usually also more risk or older condition. 5–8% is typical for stabilized commercial property; double digits often signal distressed deals.
Cap Rate
6.49%
Suggested Prices Based on Cap Rates Cap rates vary significantly by property type, market, and asset quality. Typical U.S. stable-market ranges: Multifamily — 4.5% to 6.5% (Class A in primary markets often sub-5%; Class C in secondary markets 6%+) Industrial / Logistics — 5.0% to 7.0% (compressed heavily in recent years due to e-commerce demand) Office — 6.5% to 9%+ (wide spread post-2020; CBD Class A vs. suburban Class B varies dramatically) Retail — 5.5% to 8.5% (grocery-anchored on the low end, unanchored strip centers higher) Hospitality / Hotels — 7.5% to 10%+ (higher due to operational risk) Self-Storage — 5.5% to 7.5% Medical Office — 6.0% to 7.5% Net Lease (single tenant, credit) — 5.0% to 7.0% depending on tenant credit and lease term Rules of thumb: Primary markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, DC) trade at lower cap rates than secondary/tertiary markets, often by 100–200 bps (bps, aka basis points; 1 bp = 0.01%). Class A assets trade ~50–150 bps tighter than Class B, and Class B tighter than Class C. Cap rates move inversely with price — a lower cap rate means a higher price for the same NOI. Spread to the 10-year Treasury is a common benchmark; historically 200–400 bps over the 10-year.
