How Much Cash Can a Laundromat Business Really Make? (Pt. 1)

Have you ever asked yourself how to start a laundry business or how much do laundromats make? Rosie Wash Express Laundry owner Jeff Orgill is here to share the answers-and they might just surprise you.
A film producer and editor by trade, Jeff bought a laundromat business with his wife in 2017 in the hopes of generating some passive income. With both a coin laundry and a wash-and-fold service, Rosie Wash is now a growing, successful business that’s just about doubled its yearly revenue since the Orgills bought it.
Today, we’re talking to Jeff about owning a laundromat. We’ll find out the typical laundromat profit margin and how that’s changed since he’s added pick-up and delivery service.
Along with that, he’ll share his tips on how to start a laundry business that grows its profits year after year and what his next steps are to improve the business even further.
Jeff’s innovative approach to his laundry business has been key in expanding his customer base. He’ll tell us how he grew beyond the geographic limitations that are common for laundromats and how much location impacts his success.
How you market your laundry business is a big part of this, too. We’ll hear Jeff’s advertising strategy and how he’s built Rosie Wash’s reputation.
If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Are laundromats profitable?” this is an interview you need to watch!
You can find out more about Jeff and Rosie Wash by checking out their website, www.rosiewashandfold.com. We think you’ll be as impressed by their success as we are.

My cousin owns a smaller medium sized laundromat in Chicago. It's a 2 flat. He owns the building and lives upstairs. Hes 22. He doesn't do any drop off or wash and fold. But he does have 2 vending/pop machines. And it's a clean place. Lots of people everyday us it. I dont know how much money he pulls but I never see him not smiling.

It's better to lease the land because it can be used as a tax write off. Home depot's buy the land, sell it to the bank, and has the bank lease it back to them. If this guy is not reporting everything he makes, then it makes sense to buy the land.

I don't understand his final land versus leasing. Here in Northeast illinois, the property taxes go up so owning the land is not going to keep you from paying more of a mortgage note. The best thing about land should be that you can't run out of a lease. But purchasing land in northeastern Illinois just requires so many truckloads of cash compared to leasing the property.

[@TheHugomfc]

Totally agree. Appart from the purchase of the building, which I would say might be a good move, the rest of the figures don’t impress. 1M$ total investment, if you would take a 10 year loan at 2.5% (which is really low) you would pay 115k a year, + 25% of those 300k of revenue will be utilities, so 75k in utilities, if you add maintenance, salaries and other costs at 300k of revenue he is not making money.

[@troyw8016]

@@troyw8016 well, correct me if I'm wrong, is the 36% profit margin not what he brings in? I would think after he states that his revenue is in track for $300K and his profit margin is 36% that would mean he'll get to keep ~$100k at the end of the year after all of his costs.

They can tell by looking at your water bill there's another KZbin video that talks about this. The IRS really watches cash based business. When you don't pay taxes on income the IRS comes knocking.

@@mikedavis7925 agree, this is literally the most important thing to get right in a video like this- if he paid $700k for a laundromat doing $220k in top-line *revenue* what was the EBITDA/profit? Generally these acquisitions are priced on EBITDA multiples, and market is generally 3.5-5x EBITDA multiple, so I'm guessing his EBITDA was actually $220k, not revenue, which would be a 3.18x multiple, but then with his $300k his all-in acquisition multiple was 4.5x but now that he's increased "profit" to $300k he's potentially yielding at more like a 3.3x. All of that would be market assuming both the host and the owner don't know the difference between revenue and profit, but if those figures are actually based on revenue, then this dude massively overpaid.

And then throw in every thing else in regards to costs, including the electricity, which is going through the roof as solar and wind are now the in thing, along with the potential from brownouts as the grid is stressed due to its inneficency.

I don't get the sewage impact fees. Basically, the laundromat is doing the work that other households would be doing if they laundered at home. It's basically a 'wash'. So it's not doubling the impact to the sewage system...unless someone comes from the laundromat and rewashes their clothes at home. And nobody builds new laundromats because of this. So, the population increases, but the number of laundromats don't because everyone buys existing businesses grandfathered in.
