I don't see any foreign army on any part of US soil.

Also, check condition of the soils.

If you owned a storefront business would you let some one walk in and soil your carpets?

New bathrooms, all hardwood floors....kitchen  and washroom deplorable, and about 10 cats living underneath it.

I'm not paying a buyer's broker fee - my understanding is that for most SS deals under a certain amount, say mid-six figures, the seller's broker is going to split their fee.I've found the local lenders to be between 500 and 750 basis points underneath the institutional lenders so far.  

Pick a neutral medium-toned carpet that doesn't show the soiling too much and can be steam-cleaned and shampooed with the next turnover.

I showed them insulate cushion underneath.

If you have plaster underneath it is probably best to steam.

Not an expert on Texas but my understanding especially with commercial is older type retail centers that are many decades  old used construction techniques and materials that can have foundation issues.The newer properties are engineered in such a way to adjust to soil movement without having huge foundation issues like properties of the past.Everyone needs to check on their own but this is just what I have seen with newer commercial builds in Texas from the purchases.In regards to syndication there are instances where it makes sense.

Its very spotty on whether or not the test comes back positive or negative - two neighbors can have completely different radon levels depending on the soil composition and such things as how well insulated (tightly sealed) the home is.
