A coffee shop sounds like it will produce a good amount of money as long as I have the right manager, just as a property manager they can ruin a great investment.I may take the risk and see how it works out.

I had been using the Tramontina pans, but people always seem to use metal on them and the surface gets ruined in no time.

Tampa is home to several major employers, including Raymond James Financial, Moffitt Cancer Center, and Publix Super Markets.

We who have been in this biz for awhile joking refer to this also as "6 things that kill deals, ruin people, and destroy friendships."  

I go thru the same thing with room-mates.That is, if the sub-lessee skips out or ruins the place, the original lessee is also responsible.

When compared to oil refineries, I think they are still paying out settlements to tons of cancer victims living nearby in Torrance, CA after some chemical spills and releases, decades worth.   

Ruined.

Being friends and doing business are very different relationship dynamics and good friendships are often ruined by business partnerships and deals, There are some that do work but usually the opposite is the norm.That being said you need to decide on all of the roles everyone will play, how decisions will be made, who is contributing money and how much, how it will be spent etc.

Bad management can ruin a good buy but good management can turn an ok buy into a good buy.Best of luck!

I HATE receiving maintenance calls it totally ruins my day even if its something small like a breaker flipped.
