or perhaps a reverse build to suit where the data center operator controls the buildout and the planning etc.I've not been involved in a data center first hand but the central OH market is pretty data and warehouse heavy as far as developments go and to echo the posts here, the power requirements are wild, and the red tape to get that power to the site is often cumbersome. 

I hope you were able to catch some reds and sea trout in the bay.  

It is very unlikely that you'll have problems/be investigated for just one instance, but repeatedly doing this will absolutely raise red flags these days.

Bay Park / Clairemont / Carlsbad / Oceanside are all top-tier markets that fetch top dollar (see the Yellow & Red).Move your search slightly inland, or further down South and inland, in order to get something done for 1/2 the price, with similar rents (not quite as high, but definitely not 50% less like the purchase price would be)

Red Stick REI and The RING are the two big ones in the BR area.

If you can't close fast enough or has too much red tape, then you lose the deal to others.

This is all changing very soon with the construction of the Foulger Pratt's new "WestEnd Alexandria" Landmark mall redevelopment, a new 4 million square foot mixed-use redevelopment, including a new 1.1 million square foot Inova medical center already starting, with completion set for 2028.The development notably won the Red Clay Development of the Year award.On top of the +2,000 healthcare worker jobs the development will immediately bring to the area upon completion, the 120,000 square feet of office space will also bring a large number of jobs to the west end of Alexandria.

Are there any potential red flags I should be aware of?

I just paid my attorney 15k today in just fees for 4 entitlement contract red lines and we arnt even under contract yet!  

I wasn't sure if asking my FHA lender about switching it to commercial will raise red flags.
