Commercial Plus, LLC is pleased to offer the fee-simple interest in a stabilized express car wash property in Macomb, Illinois, secured by a 20-year absolute triple-net (NNN) lease with no landlord responsibilities and a corporate guarantee from the tenant. The lease provides predictable, growing cash flow (through contractual rent escalations) while shifting taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs to the tenant, delivering truly passive, credit-backed income. For investors, ownership also unlocks accelerated depreciation / cost-segregation potential (per buyer’s tax advisor), combining tax efficiency with durable, long-term security. Portfolio Note - This asset is one of four Central Illinois sites (Macomb, Morton, Ottawa, Peru) available individually or as a portfolio. A portfolio acquisition offers scale, geographic diversification, and a larger corporate-backed income stream across multiple markets. Next Steps - Please get in touch with the listing agent to request the full Offering Memorandum, detailed lease abstracts, and materials for this site and the remaining portfolio assets PROPERTY & OPPORTUNITY SNAPSHOT • Lot Size: 1.32 +/- AC • Building Size: 5,400 +/- SF • Frontage: 150 +/- FT along Jackson Street • Traffic: 11,900 +/- VPD • Lease: 20-year NNN lease through March 12, 2044 • Rent Growth: 2% annual increases • Tenant: Sparkle Express Car Wash, Inc.

The Central Illinois Corridor, anchored by Peoria, Ottawa, Morton, and Macomb, reaches over 513.6K people across 211.8K households, with an average household income of $92.1K+. This provides a compelling blend of stability, growth, and diversification, especially when viewed through the lens of value investing. Landlord fundamentals are reinforced by the corridor’s interstate connectivity (I-74/I-80/I-39), strong mobility (?1.85 vehicles/household), and ongoing industrial/logistics investment with blue-chip anchors (e.g., Caterpillar, OSF, Frito-Lay, Trader Joe’s, Ameren, Komatsu), which collectively support steady traffic, employment, and spend. For value-minded investors, fee-simple positions in these infill submarkets offer secure absolute NNN income (with corporate guarantees and built-in escalators) plus long-term land appreciation; paired with accelerated depreciation (per buyer’s tax counsel), the result is a compelling blend of predictable cash flow, tax efficiency, and durable exit optionality.

Commercial Plus, LLC is pleased to present an operating, business-only express car wash opportunity in Glendale, Arizona. This opportunity provides an individual operator or group with a rare, low-cost entry point into the Phoenix West Valley car wash market, with the buyer acquiring the business operations and entering a negotiable lease structure. The site features an 85-foot Sonny’s express tunnel, DRB pay station, 11-space central vacuum system, electronic monument signage, and visibility along a high-traffic Glendale corridor with shared cross-access to an adjacent QuikTrip. Positioned near Glendale Avenue and 67th Avenue, the wash benefits from a dense residential trade area, strong daily vehicle exposure, and proximity to regional demand drivers including Westgate Entertainment District, State Farm Stadium, and surrounding retail nodes. For an owner-operator or growing wash group, the opportunity offers an accessible platform to step into an existing express wash location with meaningful operational upside through hands-on management, local marketing, membership growth, and lease negotiation. Please contact the listing agent to request additional information and materials. PROPERTY SNAPSHOT • Lot Size: 0.67 +/- AC • Building Size: 3,198 +/- SF • Market: Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler MSA / Glendale, Arizona • Tunnel Length: 85 FT (Sonny’s) • Pay Station: 1 (DRB) • Vacuums: 11 (Central Vacuum System) • Traffic Counts: 56,500 +/- Combined VPD (Glendale Ave & 67th Ave) OWNERSHIP THESIS • Existing Revenue Platform: Wash provides a starting point for an owner-operator to improve • Business-First Acquisition: Buyer can focus on operations, marketing, labor, and customer growth • Lease Flexibility: Negotiable lease structure allows buyer to align costs with business plan • Scalable Operator Fit: Opportunity serves as a first location or add-on site for a regional group • Long-Term Demand: Dense residential population and daily traffic support recurring demand • Owner Upside: Growth through memberships, package optimization, and lease negotiation
Commercial Plus, LLC, working in conjunction with Independent Texas-licensed broker Georgina Adkins, is pleased to present AutoBrite Car Wash, a fee-simple, two-bay mini express wash in San Antonio, Texas, positioned on US Highway 87 with immediate access to Loop 410 and a Walmart-anchored retail node. The offering conveys both the operating business and underlying real estate, giving a buyer cash flow, land control, and long-term repositioning flexibility. AutoBrite is an operating car wash today, but the larger thesis is control of a commercially zoned site in a growing San Antonio corridor. The property’s C-3NA General Commercial zoning, 110 feet of frontage, approximately 30,000 VPD corridor exposure and 0.55-acre site create multiple value paths: continue operating the wash, modernize and improve the current business, or evaluate a broader commercial redevelopment strategy over time. San Antonio remains one of the strongest growth stories in Texas. The immediate trade area has posted 3.49% population growth and 3.99% housing-unit growth over the past five years, while vehicle ownership remains deeply embedded in the customer base. For a car wash operator, that matters: more households, more vehicles and more daily-use traffic create recurring demand that is structural, not speculative. At $1.5M, the asset offers an entry basis well below the estimated cost to replicate a comparable new-build wash, with clear upside through branding, pricing, customer conversion, and site-level repositioning. This is not just a wash for sale, it is a real estate-backed value-add opportunity in a growing San Antonio corridor. Next Steps – To request additional information and materials, please contact the listing agent to execute a non-disclosure agreement. Unapproved site visits and direct contact with employees are strictly prohibited.

Commercial Plus, LLC is pleased to present a confidential opportunity to acquire a profitable, fee-simple two-site car wash, quick-lube and storage business in western Illinois. Located within the broader Quad Cities regional market, the properties operate as one complementary vehicle-care platform, combining established cash flow, semi-absentee ownership potential and a ready avenue for additional growth. KEY INVESTMENT ATTRIBUTES • Two established operating locations offered together • Two automatic and four self-serve wash bays • Eight customer vacuum stations • 32 storage units generating lower-touch rental income • Equipped quick-lube bay with meaningful operating upside • Approximately 1.74 combined acres of fee-simple real estate • Three complementary income streams • Franchise-affiliated operating platform optionality SEMI-ABSENTEE OWNERSHIP POTENTIAL Automatic and self-serve washes and 32 storage units provide lower-touch income, while the sites’ proximity supports consolidated oversight and semi-absentee potential with qualified local coverage. QUICK-LUBE GROWTH ENGINE The equipped quick-lube bay offers ready operating upside through expanded hours, wash-customer cross-selling, fleet relationships and service-menu optimization. ESTABLISHED MARKET POSITION The sites serve a car-dependent western Illinois market with recurring vehicle-care demand, limited local alternatives and access to the broader Quad Cities economy. DOCUMENTED PROFITABLE GROWTH Seller-provided financials show annual revenue growth from 2023 through 2025, expanding gross profit, materially improved operating income and continued profitability through June 2026. TRANSACTION STRUCTURE The sale includes both operating businesses, fee-simple real estate, improvements and equipment. Applicable franchise and operating rights are subject to buyer approval and transfer requirements.

Commercial Plus, LLC is pleased to present the confidential opportunity to acquire a modern, fee-simple express car wash in Central Oklahoma. The offering includes both the underlying real estate and operating business, providing a new owner with direct control over the property, operations, and future growth strategy. Opened in 2023, the site features newer improvements, a high-quality Sonny’s equipment package, DRB technology, a 100+ foot express tunnel, dedicated vacuum amenities, prominent pylon signage, and exposure along a well-trafficked commercial corridor. The business has continued to gain traction since opening, with revenue more than doubling since 2024 alongside meaningful growth in membership and revenue per wash. Recurring membership has become an increasingly important component of the business, while current membership still represents less than 10% of vehicle-owning households within the broader trade area. This combination of demonstrated customer adoption and remaining penetration opportunity provides a strong foundation for continued membership and revenue growth. The acquisition also offers multiple buyer-controlled avenues to enhance performance through membership strategy, marketing, staffing, and site-level execution. Fee-simple ownership provides additional flexibility compared with a leased operating model and allows a buyer to align both the real estate and business with its preferred operating approach. From an asset perspective, the offering provides an opportunity to acquire a recently developed, fully operational express wash at a basis that may compare favorably with the cost, time, and execution requirements associated with ground-up development today. The significant equipment and improvement component may also provide opportunities for accelerated depreciation on qualifying property, subject to a buyer’s purchase-price allocation and independent tax review. This is a confidential offering. Additional financial information, membership trends, operating details, equipment information, and property-level diligence materials are available to qualified parties upon execution of a deal-specific confidentiality agreement. Unapproved site visits and direct contact with employees or management are strictly prohibited.
Commercial Plus, LLC is pleased to present the rare opportunity to acquire an established express car wash operating business together with its underlying fee-simple real estate in Layton, Utah. This opportunity combines membership-driven recurring revenue, improving operating performance, purpose-built infrastructure and the flexibility for a new owner to choose the operating strategy that best fits their goals. The business is positioned for an owner-operator, an expanding regional platform or an investor seeking real estate ownership with an established operating component. KEY VALUE DRIVERS • Strong operating momentum: LTM washes increased 10%, LTM membership increased 23% and adjusted EBITDA increased 68% compared with the applicable prior periods. • Recurring revenue base: Membership revenue represents approximately 66% of total revenue, providing a meaningful foundation of repeat customer activity. • High-quality physical asset: The approximately 1.15-acre property includes a 4,807-square-foot facility, an approximately 130-foot dual-belt express tunnel, three LPR entrance lanes, 17 vacuum positions and winter-ready equipment. • Strategic location: The property occupies a signalized hard corner near I-15 with excellent visibility, convenient access and approximately 43,200 vehicles per day.

MULTIPLE PATHS TO CREATE VALUE A hands-on operator may elect to rebrand the business and transition the site to an independent or existing regional platform. A buyer seeking continuity may pursue continuation of the existing franchise structure, subject to required approvals. A management-supported ownership arrangement may also be explored, subject to negotiation and definitive agreements. The current operating structure includes certain expenses associated with a broader corporate platform. This creates an identifiable opportunity for a dedicated owner to evaluate costs and reposition the business toward normalized four-wall economics.

WHY THE OPPORTUNITY IS AVAILABLE The offering reflects a strategic portfolio decision. Layton is the seller’s only location in this market and therefore does not provide the operating leverage associated with a multi-location presence. The business continues to demonstrate positive momentum, creating an opportunity for a buyer who views Layton and Northern Utah as a strategic fit.

Commercial Plus, LLC is pleased to present the opportunity to acquire the fee-simple interest in a Sinclair-branded gas station and convenience store located at 320 W. Florence Blvd. in Casa Grande, Arizona. The offering combines long-term contractual income, an absolute NNN lease structure, scheduled rent growth and ownership of an improved infill site at a signalized Casa Grande intersection. Offered at $4,070,000, the property generates $234,000 in stabilized annual base rent, representing a 5.75% stabilized cap rate. The 20-year primary lease extends through August 13, 2046, providing an investor with durable income and limited management responsibilities. ABSOLUTE NNN LEASE The tenant is responsible for property taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, structure, roof, paving, fuel systems and other property-level obligations. This structure allows the purchaser to receive contractual rental income without responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the gas station or convenience store. The property is leased to an experienced multi-site operator. The lease is supported by corporate and personal guarantees, financial-reporting rights, assignment protections and tenant environmental obligations. CONTRACTUAL RENT GROWTH Annual base rent increases 10% every five years throughout the initial lease term. These increases produce 33.1% cumulative rent growth during the initial term and increase the yield on the original asking price from 5.75% to approximately 7.65% by Years 16–20. The lease also includes four additional five-year renewal options with 10% increases at each extension. FEE-SIMPLE REAL ESTATE The offering includes approximately 0.55 acres across three contiguous parcels and an approximately 2,130-square-foot convenience-store building. The purchaser receives fee-simple ownership of the land and improvements subject to the existing lease. Property improvements include: • Recently completed roof replacement • Four multi-product fuel dispensers • Approximately 35,000 gallons of fuel-storage capacity • Recently completed fuel-system upgrades • Newly paved and striped parking and circulation areas The tenant’s operating business, inventory and operations are not included in the sale. POTENTIAL BONUS DEPRECIATION As an improved retail motor-fuels property, the asset may qualify for accelerated depreciation treatment. Eligible portions of the depreciable basis may receive 15-year treatment and potentially qualify for first-year bonus depreciation, subject to property qualification, supported basis allocation, applicable tax elections and the purchaser’s individual circumstances. CASA GRANDE LOCATION The property occupies a visible position along Florence Boulevard at a signalized three-route intersection. The location benefits from established retail, regional roadway access, nearby residential development and connectivity to both Interstate 8 and Interstate 10. Casa Grande is centrally positioned between the Phoenix and Tucson metropolitan areas within the expanding Pinal County employment and technology corridor. The surrounding 15-minute trade area is projected to grow from approximately 76,800 residents in 2026 to approximately 87,400 by 2031. Qualified buyers may execute a confidentiality agreement to receive the complete offering package and supporting due-diligence materials. Unapproved site visits and direct contact with the tenant, employees or management are strictly prohibited. Stabilized NOI and cap rate exclude the initial three-month rent waiver. Potential depreciation benefits are subject to property qualification and the purchaser’s independent tax analysis.
