Well, here is some out of the box thinking from someone not involved in commercial real estate nor the hospitality industry, but very involved as a patron of restaurants...First question... is your location good for restaurant traffic and does it have adequate parking?

I didn't notice the sign until I looked at a picture of the building that I had taken when I stopped in traffic by the building.The apartment building that uses it to find renters is a nice building that my friend used to live in.Has anyone in Los Angeles used this?

This doesn't mean you don't have to work, but he will make the things you cant control happen in the right time.

So ask yourself, do you want to keep your retirement funds invested as is or would you like to gain control and a lot more investment options?

As for tying up or controlling a property such as the one you have your eye on, that really isn't that difficult.

Therefore giving you a little more time for the market to rise.I don't recommend relying on appreciation (something you can't control) to determine whether you should sell your investment or not.  

Remember you don't have to own a property to control it.

Obviously, you will need demographics and traffic count info.

You control the paperwork so sign that paperwork over.
