Hi all,The retail strip I manage is 5 years old and is in good shape. 

What sort of business do you use it for, and do you think you might choose something else if you had a different business area/model?

This is a Maryland Historical Property, zoned for residential high density, with specific limitations on its usage due to its zoning.The property is massive, offering 8,276 square ft of space, including 5,445 square ft of finished area, and it features a substantial driveway.

Curious if anyone has ever heard or done something hypotethetical like this:Currently own a home in a very gentrified area.

Additionally, if an architect has what’s called an NCARB certification, they can obtain their license in other states to expand coverage areas and take on similar projects in new locations.  

Unless you are a veteran or using a DPA program all loan products require some skin in the game (down payment) and that is how most people start their portfolios. 

You have to know what $200k smells like in your area and feels like.

Off market properties are a dime a dozen however, so doing your due diligence is key.

I understand that Cap Rates are not a set number in an area/property, and they depend on many factors.
