Commercial property cash flow

[Dawn Curry]

Just out of curiousity... what is your monthly cash flow requirement to even consider a stand alone commercial property? Or for commercial properties.. do you base a different “criteria” to go by?

[Brian Schmelzlen]

While cash flow is a very important factor to consider (especially making sure that it is not negative cash flow), it is not the main thing I consider when evaluating commercial property investments.  My main concern is how quickly I can get my cash back, and my main strategy to do that is through a cash-out refi.  Therefore, I am looking at properties with the most value-add opportunities, and not necessarily immediate cash flow.
