Other people might have a totally different opinion, but before I got more heavily into residential, I worked almost exclusively on commercial development, from single free standing stores, to $100,000,000 retail centers, so maybe I just have a strange fondness for them!

The current tenants leave empty beer bottles in the yard, leave toys outside, and store items like folding tables propped up against the exterior.

Leverage has long played a major role in most acquisitions of office buildings, stores, hotels and other commercial property in part because interest payments are tax deductible.Another sea change in commercial real estate would be in the way the House blueprint would affect depreciation.

Take the difference between what you pay now and what that quote is and store it away.
