I would explain to the tenant that you have no intention of removing them, but that your motivations actually align with theirs pretty well, it's easier to move and it's easier to fill a vacant unit both when the weather is nicer, hopefully that can at least get them to the end of your six month term where you can reassess if they want to stay or go then.Cameron

Be prepared to have fewer closings than a residential agent would be used to but the commissions are higher to make up or it, if you're targeting higher priced assets.The experience you will get in learning the transaction process, the due diligence required, and the financing strategies to get the deal closed will be better than any training from a Guru because you're in the transaction and learning it first hand.As far as tools, yes they're more expensive in the commercial world, it's just a cost of doing business, get's you larger to deals to make up for the expense, and lowers your overall tax bill at the end of the year.

For almost every project we’re involved with we can value-engineer the design and or materials selection so there is NO increase in budget for the project which will ultimately be: safer, healthier, more energy efficient (net-zero being the goal), easier to maintain and insure, and feel more comfortable.Investors, in my opinion, are missing an opportunity by not embracing green.
