Creative short term opportunity in Chicago
Hi All,
I'm trying to solve two different problems and I think I stumbled on a potential opportunity. I'm scouring the Internet for creative investment opportunities, and I'm concurrently trying to plan my wedding.
A lightbulb came on about 20 minutes ago when we realized our guest list was around 200 people, therefore nixing the small venues we've been looking at. Does anyone in the Chicago area (suburbs are ok too) have a vacant warehouse that you're trying to lease, or know will be vacant next year, June? We only require decent bathrooms, power and water. We want to bring our own caterer and not pay fees on every decision we make so this could be a good opportunity for both of us. I'm thinking $1k for the day if the space is ready for use, $500 for the day if we have to put a little elbow grease into it. This could be a great way to offset your vacancy a little bit. Let me know what you think!
