Investment Highlights

• Full-Service Car Wash: The business operates as a full-service car wash, with vehicles washed and dried by hand. The property features a ±110-foot tunnel with potential for conversion to a dual-use model offering both full-service and express wash options (buyer to confirm requirements with the city). POS and back-office operations run on DRB, a widely used car wash management platform for payment processing, membership plans, and sales reporting.
• Long-Term Ground Lease: The business operates on a ground lease with 20 years remaining plus one 10-year option, providing up to 30 years of site control. That timeline supports a buyer’s investment in equipment upgrades or a potential express-wash conversion.
• Customer Lounge & Retail: The ±2,183 SF building sits on ±1.07 AC and includes an indoor/outdoor customer waiting area and a retail component selling snacks, beverages, and auto care products.
• Freeway Location: The site is located near the intersection of Fairway Drive and East Walnut Drive North (±30,600 CPD) and is visible from the SR-60 (Pomona Freeway), with exposure to ±292,800 CPD. Access is via the Fairway Drive exit, where a grade separation project lowered Fairway Drive beneath the Union Pacific and Metrolink tracks and reopened in July 2023, removing rail crossing delays and increasing traffic flow.
• Strong Demographics: Within a 10-minute drive, the trade area includes ±150,636 residents with an average household income of $138,545 and a daytime employee population of ±68,567.
