Two additional things that your readers REALLY need to know; 1. Before taking over a lease on a commercial space, or starting a new lease, go to City Hall, and find out if there are any road construction projects coming up in the near future. Almost no one thinks to ask that one! Road construction in front of your business can hurt. Big time. 2. Skeptical me is always trying to figure out the real reasons for things. See if you can find out what the "real" reason is that the existing businesses you are buying is for sale. It may not be what you think it is, or what you are told it is.

Great job!
