I'm in Franklin myself-right next to the whole foods/centennial high school and I operate in the greater Middle TN area. 

We're at war with Russia...just not with our soldiers and that will keep energy and food prices high...and anti-China sentiment is high. 

The pro forma is definitely something to take with a grain of salt when other folks give you their numbers!⁣

You can usually tell it's abandoned just by looking at what they left behind (junk furniture, old mattresses stripped of linens, empty closets, trash, old food but not new food, etc.).After the deadline passes, dispose of it as you see fit.

Take all of this advice with a grain of salt).  

Food for thought.

My background was in pharma, transitioned to biotech start ups, moved into food technology and work as a Senior Program Manager.

What about food, utilities, transportation, etc?

If you have a fast food restaurant in there now (BK, Taco Bell, KFC, etc.) and the next tenant will be a sit-down restaurant there will be a considerable cost to convert it (also, highly dependent on the overall SQFT of the place)Overall, my advice would be to check your numbers and see if you can live with lower rent, if you do, then go back to the current tenant and ask, "at what rent will you stay and even consider extending the lease?"

Prices of goods, services, food, and energy were climbing at an unhealthy rate.
