Hey, I don't do commercial real estate but I could connect you with a person who does here in town and they might be able to help.  

Happy to connect!

Connect with people who have done it before and try to gather as much info as you can. 

@Matthew Samson, I have a connection with a structural engineer I've worked with multiple times on deals in metro ATL who will shoot you straight.

The point of my post is that I would love to connect with somebody boots on the ground in Omaha who knows the city well.

I actually had to make calls to fix the heat and broken doors and connected with the tenants 1 on 1.

Connect if you have any further question.
