Angel Perez that would be an excellent return.

Win some lose some...but you always learn something in the process.

I need to find out the average costs associated with this type of business..As I said I am just kicking around this idea and wanted to get additional input and feedback from anyone who may or may not have experience in this type of venture.Commercial RE is not my Forte and the thought of trying to find a commercial tenant every 5 or so years is not that appealing to me so I Thought if I can turn the space into my own business that kind for the most part run itself it would be a win win situation.I welcome thoughts and or things I may have overlooked.p.s. this business venture assumes the area is good and there is not another similar business nearby.

Let's see if we can get CNN Money to mention us both, I think that's a win-win!

I'm not sure if we're supposed to post outside links here, but if you google "mortgage calculator" or "amortization calculator" or "amortization schedule" it will come up with a bunch of them.Do you have excel or open office?

I pull a few months of rent listings from Craigslist and use excel to slice and dice data to get Average and Median Rates.

I have seen other broker take flyers to these tenants for their buildings they are trying to lease up to win over tenants and get them to move.

SO and I will discuss and decide next steps (if any) w/in the next few days.

So it's important to talk to someone about your case and chances of winning.

I also recommend you check out Matt Owens FIBI meetings as well, he is a great guy and his meetings are excellent.
