All,
A car wash owner acquaintance has been diagnosed with cancer. Over the next year or two, he will be undergoing surgery, chemo, radiation, etc. Yeah I know...really sucks.
He doubts he can deal (or want to) with the wash during this time and does not want to sell it just yet/ever. So he has asked my advice on leasing the business for a period of a couple of years. I think he was kinda offering it to me, but my plate is full (I work full time and my wash, family, etc).
Not sure if I even know where to start with how he would go about it. Have any of you done this? It sounds hard to do (from a legal and business standpoint). If it was my wash, I would have visions of poor maintenance, customer service, etc. that would effectively run it down and kill an established business.
What he thinks he wants is a set amount of cash paid every month to him regardless of level business (as opposed to a percentage).
I'm at a loss as to what to tell him and so I defer to your expertise.
