It might make more sense to do it that way, depending on how close you are to any military, college, hospital or events nearby that would drive short term traffic.

If you understand SEO and look at traffic (where tenants are searching), you will see that the Zillow Group is gaining the most search volume from tenants looking for rentals.

High traffic area could worth good money for a fast food place or bank.

Since you are getting traffic but no offers, you're probably overpriced for your area..

Very nice city and area, lot of lake traffic. 

I had a ton of traffic when I first started and was generally ranked in the top 50.  

When we discussed the rent in Sept my PM suggested that we would go higher with the rental amount at the beginning and we can adjust down the price in 2 weeks if traffic /inquires are low.

You will get far more money as a Flex building.Door height and Ceiling clearance height dictates usage.I'm over in Northeast Pennsylvania.. think Scranton.We're able to provide goods to 40% of the U.S within one day from any warehousing close to our major highway systems.The property itself is located in a somewhat residential area on a main street w/ a city population of 44K.The area is more lower class but I live in the area & I've seen an improvement within the last five years.There's plenty of car traffic, not so much pedestrian.I haven't measured the ceiling height but we're somewhere around 15-20 feet.We have drive up parking space in the back of the building - enough for about five cars (+/-) at a time.We do have a mix of residential & commercial neighbors.Would you recommend going with car storage or should I frame out additional storage spaces in the front half of the building? 

-Don't buy a flip opportunity that sits on a busy high traffic street. 

It would be environmentally insane not to build more housing near transportation hubs that could get the workers to these new jobs without adding tons of traffic to our streets.
