If I see bar tabs being paid off weekly or regular bar expenses I probably have someone with a drinking problem, if you see the same amount spent at a nearby C-store, like $16.22 every other day in thier neighborhood, most likely it's buying the same items, like a beer run.

I'm sure I'll get tarred and feathered for this, but I'm just returning from a long extending vacation and what a better way to get back into the fray but a healthy debate...I'd like to think that the posters on this forum "could see through the leaves for the trees" but given the media's love affair with bashing the lending industry, I can understand why...Sure loose lending guidelines, predatory lending practices and opportunistic lenders/brokers have an investment in the problem, but so do appraisers who overinflated values, borrowers that misrepresented incomes or miscalculated future earning potential and realtors that pushed the affordability envelope with the upsell---This being said, the sum total of these issues still doesn't hold a candle to the core drivers that seems to be remise from this thread.

As well as we are always into new projects, we are continuously working with Lacoste, US Polo, Swatch stores and some well known local brands and creating their new store projects whenever a new one is opening in an expanding market of retail.Apart from our existing company, we have created a new team for commercial real estate that will work on commission basis and meet the foreign investors and local sellers (site, existing real estate projects) in Turkey.We are currently representing an investor group in US that are interested in logistics, an emerging market in Turkey.

If you did maybe you could get them to drive by it and take some pictures for you so you can see what they are talking about.You could also call the local hardware stores (not the big box shops) and ask them who they would recommend to do the work for you.

I also think that these type of retail operations are facing headwinds from lack of local enforcement of shoplifting laws in places such as San Francisco, where they have closed many stores.
