@Mike Easton the key is the mindset during conversation typical realtor conversation -- market price blah blah ... i can list wholeselling conversation -- i saw your house and can pay you $XXK with $XK earnest moneyGiven you are a realtor , you really need to polarize (two extreme) your customers to see if they are retail seller (have time and not in need of capital immediately) vs someone really needs to get out with cash on hand yesterday. 

You will have to sell it retail.  

Spectrum has agreed to sell me their package at about half of the retail cost, and now I am trying to figure out the best way to bill cable and internet to the tenants.

I think just buying a retail type property might get you the equity growth from just the overall market appreciating, which is not always a sure thing. 

Hi,Does anyone know what the cap rate range is for retail in the Schenectady/Scotia area?  

Its proximity to be located nearby good retail might be a good choice for you and Tenants.  

The four main product types are: Retail, Office, Industrial and Multi-Family. 

I'm currently in the Pittsburgh market and looking at small to midsize multis and apt over retail using 7% for each. 

I thought business license’s were for retail stores, companies that were incorporated and actually have employees.

I would suggest going direct to the retailer as well.
