Reach out to the Marcus & Millichap offices in Columbus/Cleveland and have one of the MMCC commercial mortgage brokers produce a few quotes for you.If you don't have the time to research contact info / programs for 25-50 different lenders and make the calls/emails necessary to obtain optimal financing, hire a broker.

and of course thanks for the info!

Hey Chris, a few thoughts here.Considering that office is not attached to the house, I wouldn’t add any footage to the total home square footage; however, you could advertise that office space and amount of footage and amenities in your remarks.If you’re a Realtor or are using one for the sale, your local MLS may have fields dedicated to additional footage for other buildings on the property, such as ADU’s.The other point is that typically, perhaps depending upon location, a space needs to have heating to count in the square footage, which this office doesn’t have if I understand correctly.Consider contacting an appraiser to inquire about how they would handle this space on an appraisal, or a Realtor.

So there ya go one contact.

@Toby FellowsYou are correct, you need to ‘hang’ your license under a broker in order to practice real estate, and most brokerages require you to become a member of the National Association of Realtors as well.While you are preparing and taking your courses, contact several brokers and interview them to find out who might be a good fit.

@Anna Smith contact Alvin Schein esq212-935-1400His focus is development in NYC

Reach out and I'll share all that info with you!

@Zach Edelman I appreciate the feedback and the broker info!

After getting new property management we made contact with inhabitants of both units and attempted to strike a new lease with us.

If that is one of the only contractors and the lien is considerable that’s another story - but not enough info to tell
