Mixed use office w/ large shop bays.

[Brad Griffith]

I've always been interested in building a large 10 or so unit of large shop bays with separate entrances and utilities. I have also been interested in building or buying a 10-16 unit office complex specifically designed for multiple companies. I have recently put an option contract on a large parcel of land and am thinking of combining both options. I would like to build an office complex in the front with several units, one conference room to share and one reception desk. I am thinking about including a receptionist. In the back I would like to have large bays separated and a small storage yard behind the shops. I haven't seen a place where you can come in and say I want 2 offices and 1 large bay etc. It's always one or the other. I will be chasing carpenters, electricians, plumbers, oil and gas. Any company that needs a small office and a large bay or two. I currently own residential, multi-family, and commercial and am looking to expand. Let me know if anyone out there has any experienced with mixed use complexes like this and what advice you may have. Thank you in advance.
