Hello Everyone,I am currently in the process of opening a pack-and-ship store and am seeking a suitable rental space.

Sometimes a fresh approach or minor property improvements can make a significant difference in securing a tenant.Ultimately, aligning your strategy with your long term goals while managing current cash flow is key.

Each and every area might need a fresh look and improvement.

Updates include new upstairs flooring, kitchen counters/sink, bathroom vanities/toilets, and fresh paint.

Anything that is almost guaranteed to be used daily in your rentals (i.e. couches, bed, chairs), I'd try to invest in as much quality as you can for those specific items.Some store sites will let you filter for "contract grade" or "commercial grade" items - these are the sorts of furnishing that get put into higher-use commercial applications such as hotel lobbies, apartment building amenity spaces, etc. 

You didn't mention it but hotel would be deductible as well.People always look at us funny when we are in a store checkout. 

It’s is much more analogous to the large department store having a premium brand running a dedicated area with their own expert staff- which is exactly what they do.Look at the various “make up” counters in any mall anchor department store.
