That particular part of the city could very well be a bad area though.

If rent is not paid physically at a branch (i.e. it is paid online or via bank transfer), the date of payment will be considered the date when funds reach our account. 

A REIT on the other hand can fall substantially faster than your physical property.

Many businesses just need to establish some physical office presence, without the need for much room.

It drives me crazy because it's serious physical damage being caused by some silly bureaucratic rule somewhere that is not in the owner's best interests.

I think he will stay on until he physically can’t work anymore, so there would be a decently long transition period.

I have some medical conditions that will keep me from continuing that job long term as it is physically demanding. 

Find a way to improve the physical property AND the operations to increase the revenue and decrease the expenses. 

I would physically take home ~$200 more per month after all payroll deductions.Should I wait another month for my income to increase prior to applying for a loan, or go ahead and get approved this week as planned?
