I told him i understand but Im an investor and for me to even get my other investors to look at it I have to be at least 70% below retail - repairs.

If that is met, without having any prior business activity or massive income it will be nearly impossible to take the route of a commercial loan from a big bank wont it?

At the time it was for my commercial retail store fixes(old bldg)I made sure he was done with her.... but he "wasn't" really.

Its going ok, I have 6 short sale offers out and a few just regular retail listings.

I'm, however, always looking for prospect so when opportunity arise financially, I usually already found my next project.Since we bought every 2-3 yrs, I bought different type just for more education.Condo...new construction....commercial retail store....single familyAfter 12 years....ppl are asking me to invest for them.

If you offer tenants a good property at a fair price you will make money barring some massive financial crisis that will put millions in your same position, and you might make money anyway.

I cringe when I see young couples buy huge retail homes that they don't need and get stuck with zero equity and not to mention wiped out savings due to down payments.

Retail value is around $330k (per property tax appraisal) $336k (on Zillow).

I think it will have a disruptive role, reducing the barrier to entry and making real estate more accessible to retail investors.

Real estate agents deal with retail sales - completely different.To your success!
