hello, my name is jay im from texas, ive done a little carpet cleaning in the past, and since my recent felony conviction, decided the only way i can make any real money in the sh*t town i live in is to start a carpet cleaning business, i have roughly 10,000$ to invest,and my credit score is at a 580,so im in need of advise for a semi beginner, ive allready set up a tax id # and named my business ''STEAM PRO""I PLAN ON BUYING brand new equipement ( truck mount ),i want a newer model chevrolet express van maybe a 2000+,ive found a truck mount with 100 ft hose,and a chemical package, from ''chem tex'' here in texas houston for 5,999$, i think thats my best bet, its a 15hp i think, any advise would be very appreciated! thanks !!!

Hey man,just getting into the business myself, I have done alot of research too. I don't think you will find a truckmount, chemicals, hoses and a van for less than $10k. If anyone has one out there has a system like this, please let me know....Im looking too. Also, do you think you will have any problems with getting bonded?

Welcome guys.. I helped a friend of mine get a spitfire 3.2 with 55hrs (like new) and a 2000 econoline all for $9200 that included tax.. Nice little entry TM.. You have to look around until you find the right deal..
If your in it for the long haul get a TM.. More prestige.. More confidence.. More professional Image.. More Power..

well i talked to a pretty nice guy here in san antonio,says hell hook me up with a truck mount, and everything ill need for $6500, sounds pretty good to me
 , as for getting bonded??? hmm i wasnt aware i had too? the carpet cleaners i know here told me all i needed was a tax id and vehicle insurace?oh well, any advise is greatly appreciated! im also looking to buy a newer used cargo van, i like the chevy express but ive seen the econolines around more, which is more reliable? 94 econolines look like 2007s maybe the parts are easier to find etc?
