| Roswell Coin Laundry 1017 Alpharetta St | Roswell Coin Laundry LLC (Ctrl# 11017136); also Roswell Coin Laundry Inc. (11042061) | Christopher Petit | DISSOLVED — LLC formed 3/3/2011, dissolved 7/28/2011, no annual registration | Yelp 4.0★ / 23 | Both named entities dissolved — confirm the seller's CURRENT entity + Certificate of Existence before any LOI |
| Splash Laundromat 880 Holcomb Bridge | "Splash" group (multi-store) | — | operating | Yelp 4.6★ / 227 | Premium & well-run, but part of a chain → less likely a single-store sale |
| Clean Wave 5730 Buford Hwy | entity unconfirmed | Conflicting: Martin/Singal vs. Solomon (BBB) | operating | modern; WDF + pickup/delivery | Ownership records conflict — verify entity & owner |
| Amigo Coin 5530 Buford Hwy | S&A Khan LLC → "Tamar Investment LLC" (sold) | changed hands 2012, later sold | operating | Yelp 2.7★ | Real comparable SALE on Buford Hwy; weak reviews + management complaints |
Operator reality (sourced): laundromats are not passive; utilities (water/gas/electric) are the largest cost on top of high fixed overhead; equipment breakdowns are inevitable; and a high price-to-earnings multiple is "exceedingly rare… reserved for large chains" — independent confirmation these listings (3.4–4.7× SDE, ~58% margins) are richly priced. Coin laundries are cash businesses (OCCRP) → real revenue must be reconciled to tax returns + bank deposits before any offer.
