Land costs and site improvements will also impact your initial investment.The most common "state of the art" facility will be about 60,000 - 80,000 net rentable square feet, cost $45-65 per square foot to construct (outside of existing land costs), and have break even operating expenses in the 40-60 percent range (not including debt service) of total stabilized income.

If you prefer the arts, or prefer to invest in the ebb and flow of a full-sized City, then Lowell is the one for you.

I am sure I will be asking lots of questions about the art of finding the deal.

I like Temple as an investment....the University has been investing in their own area, plus they expanded their medical school and the center city area has been in developing in that direction, plus Avenue of the Arts is seeing some incredible growth.  

I enjoy the analytics of the figures and utilize spreadsheets to "see" how the crunched numbers work (I will even go out of my way to do some of the calculations long-hand; call it a long-lost art).
