It sure seems that more small industrial is being replaced by apartments in the East Bay.

This week's post goes out to the data-driven folk...First, let's talk about two key metrics: Average Daily Rate (ADR) and Occupancy Rate (%).Understanding ADR: Maximizing Rental IncomeThe Average Daily Rate (ADR) is a key metric in the short-term rental (STR) industry.

I know quite a few people in the industry that have done well for themselves in rental arbitrage and a few that haven't.

Residential, commercial, and industrial real estate segments respond differently to economic cycles.

It is much better to grow your equity in a compounding way and the transform it into cash flow when you want to.

They say to themselves, "Well, I gave it a few years; I guess this industry isn't for me..."

I absolutely detest the fact that the insurance industry has decided that the way to sell their insurance products is to disguise insurance salespeople as “financial advisors”.  

Many will also handle the application process.2) Industry standard the way you are doing it.3) Word-of-Mouth from other agents4) Upwork is best5) Google competitors, many have their PMAs on their website.

Smaller industrial properties have maintainedimpressive occupancy rates and rising rents for several years, and in recentmonths they have increasingly stood out as one of the best-performingcategories of commercial real estate.To learn which U.S. markets have the most acuteshortages of smaller industrial space, CoStar ranked the 60 largest U.S.markets based on the composite scores of three criteria: current availabilityrates for industrial buildings smaller than 50,000 square feet; the mediannumber of months on the market of 10,000-25,000-square-foot industrial spacesleased in the past 12 months; and the median number of months on the market ofindustrial spaces smaller than 10,000 square feet leased in the past 12 months.

A diverse set of locales comprise the 20 markets withthe highest availability rates and leasing times for small industrial spaces.The four largest Texas markets, Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston and SanAntonio, all rank in this group.However, most of these 20 markets with higheravailability rates and longer leasing timelines than most locales still havelimited inventories of small industrial spaces available for lease.
