However, the limited new retail construction and historically low availability rates should help limit any potential surge in vacancy rates in the event of a demand pullbackHere are several graphs illustrating the current national commercial retail market in The United States of America:Full Commercial Retail Market Report Here: https://d2saw6je89goi1.cloudfront.net/uploads/digital_asset/file/1189858/United_States-Retail-Capital_National-2024-03-10_a.pdf

I am concerned though about vacancies and potential issues with finding decent property management.

1) We don't ever recommend allowing an agent to handle screening of a potential tenant! 

Sell.I am really concerned about trends I have seen in Florida where condos are being shut down due to unpayable costs/assessments, the building gets torn down and then a new one rebuilt and the condo owners simply lose everything.The idea of an HOA on sterroids makes me want to avoid them but then the added risk of shady tear downs makes me avoid condos like the plague.

Say you find two potential investments: a mom-and-pop coffee shop or Starbucks that both generate $100k in Net Operating Income per year.

For financing, you can look into a DSCR loan, which the lender will use the potential income for the property to underwrite the loan.

Then each propertyOwner along the road will get assessed on their property taxes.  

One final note, this property has a lot of potential for value add opportunities as its located right on a major highway and is 2 acres. 

I second Account Closed on this one, I feel like nothing kills a deal with a potential cash-flowing condo then a brutal HOA/Condo Association.

How do I even go into assessing something like this for rental value and long term appreciation to know if it's a good deal?
