The speaker plans to improve their car wash over several years by spending money gradually on enhancements rather than hiring a full-time maintenance person. They intend to consolidate maintenance tasks across their car wash, laundromat, and rentals to ensure the maintenance person is consistently busy and well-compensated.
"I'd rather spend money over the course of time and make the car wash look better and be better over a few years and part of that is not hiring somebody 40 hours a week doing maintenance for us there's not 40 hours worth of work there probably is 40 hours worth of work between here and my laundromat and my rentals so we're trying to be aware and courteous of Tony's time and not running ragged make sure he's making money because he lives 45 minutes away from here"

The car wash operations are primarily controlled by a Windows 10 tablet, which cost $20,000.

A car wash purchased for $1 million, with an estimated annual profit of $67,000 (a 6.72% return), would be cash flow negative if financed at a 7% interest rate, making it an unprofitable business acquisition under these conditions.
"if we take a look at that we divide it by a one million dollar purchase price it's a 6.72 return which if interest on a loan right now seven percent you would be cash flow negative on this so the business would not be worth it in any way shape or form"
Car Wash Investment Return
Pending
Despite not being a profitable business to purchase, the real estate for a car wash located on a main road on a one-acre site could be very valuable if financed at low interest rates (2-3%).
"but we're on the main drag of the road this is a huge site this is is like an acre so it's one of those things where it won't be a profitable business to buy but the real estate would be very much worth it if you could get access to money two percent or three percent"

The speaker notes that while the backup Hamilton change machine is currently working, the XE validator it uses is considered low quality. This implies that the working machine might not be reliable long-term.
"that's a Hamilton there's an XE validator in it these are pieces of crap so the good machines down this one's up and running maybe"
