You're site traffic would drop considerably and no site owner would want that.

BUT please don't spend a ton of money with a subscription service that retains all your files and or traffic flow.

I have a feeling that if it had been listed on a the main MLS it would have gotten a good bit of traffic (it's in the same subdivision where we have already flipped 4 properties and investors are starting to flock there), and likely would have gotten an offer higher than ours.But I'm not complaining...

I like my rental property to be on a busy street because it means lots of traffic to see a for rent sign.

Next to my property is a 24 acre parcel with B4 zoning that a developer wants to buy, his problem is it sits on the corner of 2 State hi ways, and the DOT wont let any developer have an entrance, its just to close to the traffic light, and a long time ago DOT bought easements, and other stuff.This is where my problem starts, and where I need some advice.Sellers want to sell the 24 acres, but anyone that buys it will need my land for access.all the developers that want the corner want to give me 100K an acre for it, but dont want to give me anything for the building becuase they say there going to level it.A commercial broker listed their 24 acres, but had them reduce their asking price by 500k telling them I was going to be hard to deal with because I wouldnt take 300k for my 3 acres with my building.My property brings in 40k clear a year, but could be up to 60k if they develop next to me with something nice, plus I have room for another strip if I wanted and saw needI own it free and clear, so I dont need to sell, but I cant see taking 300K.

I get the most response from the listings on our own website, and then of course a sign in the yard with directional signs to get drive-by traffic.

It's been a great 2012 already.1) Closed on the sale of one of our rentals (which was my personal home at one point).2) Closed on a tough duplex deal for a buyer client. 3) Refinanced 2 of our duplexes.4) Had record level blog traffic. 5) Started shopping for our own new home. 6) Kept up with my workout plans.I should mention that #1 and #2 were both difficult for similar reasons that Thomas mentioned.

Depending on the chain they have a selected broker handling their growth and searches for them.The restaurant also has a builder that does spec work for them.Not all restaurants have free standing and some only have in line models.You have to see what the product mix is for the area.Example if 20 pizza places are in a 2 mile radius the saturation rate might be to high for a particular restaurant.They look at demographics,price for the land,required easements,traffic flow for time of day whether they are mainly a lunch driven business or dinner.Shape of the parcel for architectural work,flow,and what model of restaurant they can build there.Example a franchise has 3 size models.Data for the area suggest the biggest model.Your parcel would only fit their smallest building.In that case they might see about buying another parcel to increase size or find another location.Chain restaurants usually lease the space so they can free up capital to keep growing locations and their brand.

As long as the rent is paid and they are quiet I don't care.Now when people get in hard times I find 3 people turn into 10 people living under one unit 2 beds,2 1/2 baths.The problem is the people that were qualified credit and criminal are on the lease and the others are not.So the unknown people have not been qualified to see if they will be a problem or not.More people wear down the units faster,cause noise with extra vehicles,and parking issues.Our water is not sub-metered and is paid by us the landlord.Extra people taking a shower,flushing the toilet,washing clothes,cooking etc. runs up the water bill.Water company says people use about 60 gallons a day on average according to statistics.I know there is fire code limits but I was thinking of having in lease max of 4 people and anything over that is 50 dollars per month per person.This would cover extra water bill and help with extra turning costs with the heavier traffic usage.

I am surprised this post didn't get a bit more traffic.
