No going out to restaurants, malls, bars, coffees- unless it's your third job.  

Restaurants are not popular with lenders because so many fail.  

Facility is just south of the center of town positioned between industrial park and fast food restaurants, with fast food being in front of main road.  

I called the screening company and they said that sometimes medical bills dont count against credit score)The amounts that are in collection are small, one k, 278$, small amounts, but there are like 14 of them...She said they opened a second business (restaurant) and it did not go well, they had to close it, that is why she fell behind on her bills but she is working on it because she wants in the future to expand her business..She says in her business she makes 12K per month and saving money for business expansion.She says she can prepay for 4 months (2.5K rent per month, so its 10K plus 2K security deposit)Would you rent it to her?

When I worked in a fast food restaurant 40 years ago, there were several of us that used the same phrase when someone made a mistake. 

Once you learn the ins and out of the business you know how to properly assess risk versus upside when buying a property.Example if a stand alone Popeyes restaurant paying 30 dollars a foot for a 2,500 sq ft building base rent plus NNN expenses on absolute NNN leases and only 5 unit franchisee the risk can be HUGE DOWNSIDE if corporate Mcdonald's paying the same rent per foot for the area and much stronger tenant.

I invest in Broadstone Net Lease which invests in low maintenance single tenant net leases in industries it considers to be recession and Amazon resistant: medical office, industrial, fast service restaurants, etc.
