I will say that those opportunities are priced very reasonably, and the guys who put them on are active investors.www.dfwreiclub.comIf you're interested, the Dallas club meets 10/9 at the Addison Marriott Quorum, and the Richardson club meets 10/16 at the Richardson Civic Center. 

If the street name is a letter ie" M street, F street" its probably in a bad area of town, the lower down the alphabet u get (downtown streets) the further your going from the center and the worst the properties get.

I can price in the higher interest rate in my offer price.Mixed use such as what you are looking at is harder to get good debt on.The retail you would need to look at TI needed to land a tenant and required lender reserves which will vary based on the retail spaces.5 levels of retail tenants from least risky to most risky for lender underwriting purposes.Taco Bell as an example.Lease guaranteed by all corporate stores - thousands from parent companySubsidiary of corporate - ex. 300 Taco Bells in one stateLarge franchisee with track record of 15 years in biz and 100 stores etc.Small Franchisee with one to two locations and little experience and assets.Lowest is non- taco bell but just a persons starting up a taco place with no support just a name and a dream etc.Most of my clients buying strip centers into the multi millions are using non-bank debt.10 year term, 30 year amort., high 4's fixed, non-recourse loan with a first 2 years interest only option to push cash on cash another 250 to 300 basis points.
