Retail fills up much faster in my market.Office economy goes down they down size to warehouse space, move to office in house, or renegotiate the lease to take less space and do more commute work for themselves and employees,etc.I like retail because certain types of businesses NEED the storefront to drive sales on a daily basis mainly experiential type tenants and more internet resistant where consumers cannot conduct business online.Example a karate school where you go workout versus a vitamin shop where you can find a cheaper company online to order from and ship to your house or business.Office for medical can be strong.

Like if the property grosses $8000 in rents and I want to factor a 10% vacancy, I would plan to set aside $800/month for that? 

8-10 percent monthly gross rent fee, 1-200 dollar renewal and one month rent for placement

I have the day to day portion of running the business covered with employees and a trustworthy general manager ready to step in on day one of the acquisition.

Otherwise if she did open a corporation you can be an employee and do work for the corp to earn a salary.

If you gross $20k a year, that's $6600 you're giving away to a PM...

Work from home has become more popular with employees and employers alike. 

The companies just give their employees a per diem and let them find their own place.However, I did get a phone call yesterday from a guy that has stayed with me about 20 times. 

The entrepreneur with leaderships skills, problem solving skills, the ability to set and reach goals, and the ones that can out work just about any employee will far out earn the majority of employees with college degrees.  

A 50% pay increase while working 25% less hours in an industry that requires government subsidies to stay afloat and has competitors that already have lower costs  I’m sure the last few employees will become very rich  May they get every thing they are asking for.
