I would be attending family office type events where your interacting with those of your same financial standing.. 

I am doing a $750k raise on a $2.9 million medical office building.

I spoke to the clerk at the revenue office and she said that 3-4 real estate companies submitted long lists of 0% bids.  

Plan to spend $350k over the next 2 years adding a new office, adding amenities and adding water meters to each unit.

I went to their office and they seemed to be arguing about things and very much not lenient to any tenant issues.

@Tara Jenkins you may have to restart the process with an actual mortgage loan officer.  

Is this multi, retail, office?

Unlike residential, commercial assets aren't based off of comparable prices.  2 office buildings next to one another can have dramatically different valuations because one is twice as big. 

Just to make things even more interesting, it was completely gutted down to the studs and came with a squatter that had to be forcefully removed by the police (via shattering a glass patio door).
