Hey everyone, I have been doing commercial property management privately for over five years now and I'm sure most of you will agree that finding and keeping a solid tenant is the biggest challenge, yet, is the most important objective on your list at all times.I have sandwich signs posted near the main roads at all of my properties, and recently created banners to hang on windows.
