Hey Bigger Pockets community, I'm just starting out in Step 1 (get educated) on what I want to become a successful career in real estate investment.I also currently run an e-commerce business that is currently completely online, but would benefit from having a brick & mortar storefront, and I had an idea that maybe using the investment capital I'm looking to allocate into real estate into a commercial property my business can operate out of until I decide to sell the property in or rent it out to another business.I am obviously very naive when it comes to the complexity of any good real estate deal (especially commercial VS residential), but I'm hoping to spend as much time learning from everyone here who is on their journey as well.My main concern with the idea of buying commercial to operate my business out of it that I might struggle to rent it out afterwards and that there may likely be depreciation in the commercial real estate market over the next 5 years.I understand there is a lot of nuance depending on the local market but I'm guessing commercial is even less of a "safe" bet than finding a solid residential deal to leverage in some way.

I’d think it would sell reasonably quickly given where it is located. 

If so we can move them quickly.

Then I'll focus on paying off mortgages and making my investments "safe" instead of focusing on growth.

if you allow the use of it I would mention something in your contract that the tenant is responsible to manage a controlled safe fire or something along those lines.  

There are occasional properties in the rural areas around here that I can get 95% LTV on, those areas don't appreciate as quickly but do have decent rental rates.
