New Car Wash help

[KJ1225]

Hello,

I've been looking to start a 6 bay self-serve car wash for quite some time now and the market in Edmonton is steady and doing quite well, but I was wondering if there?s a good place to obtain beginners information in starting a ss car wash.

I'm debating whether to purchase the land or lease it, purchasing is difficult as there isn't enough land in ideal locations around. Leasing on the other hand has many options but I'm not sure if it would be wise to lease.

Any input for a beginner is greatly appreciated!

Thank You!

Eddie

Eddie, you are in luck, you have already come to the right place, but you will actually need to read the many pages of this site, before you will be able to start asking intelligent questions and understand the answers. There are no magic answers or bullets. It takes time and money to learn anything, but at least you found the Forum.

I absolutely agree it's going take alot time and money to get it right, before investing anything of monetary value I will definitely invest some time to learn about the industry.

I understand that there will be no "one" magic answer as situations and conditions vary from market to market and each person's situation. So do you suggest I browse through the forum's archived thread and start from there? Are there any publications that I can purchase that can help me understand everything better?

Thanks again for everyones help in advance.
