All of this and many other factors need to be considered running a restaurant.The biggest issue a one off restaurant faces is food quality and pricing.Small places can't order in massive quantities so do not have long term food contracts locked in at a set price like chains do.Instead food cost fluctuations can hurt a small restaurant plus the quality you get from a supplier might be good one week but the next a new company came in to the food supplier and gave them a cheaper deal to use their product and try it out.The new product may be better,the same, or worse.The problem is you pay the same price and charge the customer the same price as before but it might not taste as good.I don't know how you will buy this restaurant as you have no experience as an owner.You can't just open a restaurant and expect people to come in.A few will but not enough to make a great business.You have to pound the ground and press palms and get the product with free samples into people's mouths.This will generate buzz for your restaurant and create customers with a relationship.Customers are habit creatures.Get them a great experience,great food,decent price and you will get repeat business.

I'm thinking about buying one or two rental single family homes in this neighborhood.Homes priced $130-150k appear to rent for $1200-1350/mo. in good condition and at least moderately updated.I looked at some dogs too but since I am out of town, I don't think I want to rehab extensively.My questions/concerns----The quality of tenant in that area??

I see these packages all the time of varying quality and the better packages have more information rather than less and have an experienced agent who controls and solicits the asset pool.I would look at putting together a property level cash flow alone with an aggregate.
