I'm into long term holds and like a modern clean look.

This will be a great resource once they get their sytems down etc.Also look for the bigger crowd funding portals to enter the space at least on a product that might be a little shorter term.

The tenant came to us after seeing the space (and a sign in the window) and she wanted a build to suit salon put in.

She will be moving in next week :) I hadn't thought about it Colleen, but looking back as the oldest of 5 whose first house was a block from my siblings' schools, we probably need to talk to the kids about respecting this home as their sister's space and what that looks like.  

Most agents do not use it but modern buyers want it.  

Unless the master is huge, I have a feeling most people would prefer to have the extra space in the master for other stuff.It may cost a bit more to move the plumbing, but unless you're seeing other houses in your area that have a washer/dryer in the master, it's probably better to spend the money and make the house more conventional.

More and more space is being built to keep up with demand, but rentals are at over 95% occupancy.

I lease space in this multi-tenant fully occupied office building and have the first right of refusal whenever it is put up for sale.

Another possibility might be adding additional sources of income - renting out the common space/room in the office if you have one, to the tenants for birthday parties etc, vending machines, coin operated laundry, pet fees, pet non refundable pet deposits.  

I'm looking forward to the feedback that others have on this forum, and if any of them were looking at the re-introduction post, it was a chance to network with others who are in the same space as I am, in much the same way as agents with other agents, etc.
