Key lessons learned: use a cost-per-square-foot estimate from previous projects rather than relying solely on GC quotes, as they often underbid but end up costing more in the long run.The property is under a 2-year lease at $1,750/month.

That can run up to $1,000 a foot with most lots here being 75-100' in width. 

I feel like you only get one shot at a first impression with a potential client and I want my best foot forward. 

I know that if I could get my foot in the door that long term profitability is relative, but entry point here is much higher.

Price per square foot metric is one of the WORST metrics ever.Using that logic, two homes next to each other that are 3,000 square feet each should be the same value, right?

The 13 million-square-foot demand increase was mainly due to new pre-leased spaces becoming available.Looking ahead, demand for retail space is expected to remain strong despite upcoming store closures, as expansion plans from tenants are likely to offset vacancies.

Also, while we can show records of median list price and cost per square foot, those are not necessarily helpful in determining future appreciation because factors such as new home inventory can skew these numbers.

Believe me, if you do foot the bill for central AC, he will run you through the mill for dozens of other things.

This was a 1700 square-foot house and it was a lot of money to furnish as well as very stressful to try to fill every crevice of the home so it’s not plain!

Bingo!
