Hi I’m a multi family investor I would like to start investing in commercial and industrial properties.

I wasn't sure if there was an "industry-standard" way to approach investors, luxury brokerages, etc. 

Personally very familiar with the Cannabis industry In SoCal, I grew up there.Rates are high on cannabis due to there being far and few banks willing to lend on it.

. - The insurance industry like many others (including our industry of home remodeling here in Chicago) has escalated exponentially in cost.I've got several local Chicago brokers I can share with you, but I think no matter what your rates & premiums have probably gone up...I will send over a couple of contacts for you.Just curious, what neighborhood of Chicago is your building in?

Storage units, industrial, raw land, development (a form of value add), zoning changes (a form of value add), office, hotel/motel, NNN, etc.  

Hello,I’m Jason Thibault and have been in business for the past 7 years within the residential construction industry.  

They have been approved for a single family home Fannie loan (cannot do FHA because my husband works in the Cannabis Industry and the gov't will not allow).

For instance I was seeing insane growth and development in pasco county, wesley chapel areas outside of tampa, and actually had a hell of a time finding industrial space in Bradenton FL, so at least on the commercial side of things from my limited experience there didn't seem to be a down turn or softening, so its so interesting to here your take on your local market there as well.  

Cons: Not a happy industry - everyone has a story or opinion and they're usually negative.
