Once they review the comps, the'll compare it to what tenant is currently paying and adjust the tenant portion (if anything) as they do their evaluation.

There are always deals to be found, but the numbers and volume that most folks are looking for are more difficult to come by compared with many other markets. 

If so, this is somewhat discouraging, and aligns itself with the comparable philosophy like single family homes.

For purposes of having a commercial space, for business credit, applications/requirements from many companies and to keep our incorporation in the state of Oregon, we are currently leaning toward continuing to rent the cheapest office unit month-to-month as our Principal Place of Business just to meet the requirements of state incorporation/other companies.I'm certain that we are not the only virtual business to face this dilemma... has anyone found a solution to this.. perhaps a method or another state that permits virtual businesses without a physical presence to be incorporated in their state?

In addition I suspect many of those homes that are huge negative cash flow are being sold to owner occ.. not for rental purposes. ???

However, I have a friend who just became a realtor and I'm big on supporting friends and their endeavors so I am supporting her.The homes within a 1 mile radius that are comparable to the home I just flipped and am about to put on the market are selling for the price I want to list mine as.

@Jonathan Breton first what is the purpose of the card? 

With rents running $2,600 people compare them to fancier Manhattan units.

@Paul Caputo good point, abandonment studies are often not done at all as they fly under the radar a bit as compared to cost segs.

It's not cheap, but it looks relatively cheap compared to stuff in Culver City, Westchester areas and of course way cheaper than a place like Venice Beach.
