Victor Buendia with Progressive Real Estate Partners’ represented the seller, an Arizona based institutional investor, in all four transactions. According to Buendia, “These properties represented an excellent opportunity to acquire a car wash with existing infrastructure without the construction and entitlement risk typically associated with ground up construction OR the additional goodwill premium a buyer would pay based upon purchasing an operating car wash.”
