Benjamin,  here is a complete breakdown of my loan costs. 

Definitely get the structural engineer to look at the joists & support beams to see what's up with the uneven floors.

There would potentially be some weight issues with the 2nd+ floors of some shopping malls, depending on what the potential tenant wants to store in the upstairs unit. 

We focus on CapEX before beauty. as a realtor we understand selling or renting homes you have to make the home function, Roofing, windows, electrical and plumbing. after we address these we focused on beautify making sure the upgrades match the area and is forward thinking with color scheme, flooring, and flow.

I've got a mixed use building with a vacant 5200 sg ft. medical space on the first floor.

The height from the floor is 68".

I'm considering new floors, fixtures, countertops, windows, removing popcorn ceilings, etcetera.
