Office warehouse

[Robert T.]

Hi DP members: We have a 17,000 sf piece of land on the feeder of a major highway in Houston. Looking to build an office warehouse (with a 1: 9 ratio viz. office: warehouse) and lease out for income stream . Questions: 1) How big can the building be on this size land 2) Is it easier to lease out two smaller ones than one larger one, bearing in mind there is not too much land (17,000 sf) 3) What is the estimated cost psf? Cheers.

The maximum building size will be determined by setbacks, landscaping, parking, bufferyards, etc. You need to look that up or ask a planner and then you'll have your answer.
