Posted

I have a mixed use Commercial building and am needing advice on Vetting and Selecting Commercial Tenants. Building is in a downtown area that is growing/developing/lively. Across the street from a large Church. NO entertainment business allowed (i.e. ax throwing, theater, bowling, music or alcohol) 

Desired Businesses: Pharmacies, Medical/ Retail Sales, Insurance, Engineering, Salon/Spa, Government Agencies, Tax/Accounting Firms, Attorney, etc. 

Obvious Answers: Chamber of Commerce, Cold Calling/ Networking with Locals. 

What pro tips can you suggest? Types of leases, financial requirements from tenants, duration of lease, business mix that compliment one another. d
