Those splits are good for offices or studio's.  

I'm a residential loan officer and I have a client who is taking out a loan (not through me) to buy a wharehouse for their business.

In many states the sheriffs office is responsible for removing the tenants belongings, but the JCO website makes it sound like the landlord is responsible.

@Christopher Harrison you can get information from the county assessors office.

I am starting with a hunch at the highest possible level: - Urban office has been decimated and has a huge pile of vacancies.

Market OverviewThe Los Angeles office market is comprised of 210.4 million square feet in twenty-one geographic concentrations ranging in size from the 38.9 million square foot Downtown submarket to the Mid-Cities submarket, which accounts for 1.8 million square feet.

The only reason I jumped in on this thread is because I learned as a military officer that when you stand for nothing you will fall for anything.
