I'm working on a couple of deals I want to make an offer on but I have been struggling a little bit with getting my financing sorted out.

I know my landlord policy does not cover any sort of business operations in my rentals.

Are there larger buildings or smaller buildings?

One is a SFH, one is a duplex...the SFH is larger, will netmore $/mo because I won’t pay utilities... very similar in finishes, the duplex a little more updated.... but it appraised for 243 and the SFH only 164k... are Duplexes just valued higher in high rental neighborhoods?

. $85-90/sq ft homes are about what my area is going for but older homes with larger lots.

I've learned as well that for larger commercial deals especially, partnering is usually the way to go.

They have a hall with vendors, maybe 10 or so, each speaker usually has some sort of package they offer but the owner of Mr.

On the other hand I might have a better chance of getting some sort of money from her for just the 3 months plus late payments.

In my opinion, the most important thing is to establish some sort of system and rules for yourself that will make the process less scary to you.   

i.e. cafe, lounge area, art gallery space, co-working creative space.I would first like to:1) Build up a larger client base for my brand online and see the the need for a brick and mortar location2) Evaluate the trend of brick and mortar retail / coworking space going forward3) Store up enough cash reserve to accommodate the increase operating expense tied with a commercial retail lease4) Gain commercial residential experience which in my opinion has less risk of vacancy.
