Used the rest of the funds to turn part of the front building into retail store fronts which leased for 150% more on a per square foot basis.

What is the average cost per foot to do those items, mainly the electrical, plumbing as well as all new sheetrock. 

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.

Not saying we would sell, but just the fact you can often relieve a lot of pressure 

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?

Relieved, you move to Florida.

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.
