Home-based Business?

Buying a building?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

 This can be complex and require significant investment. Working with an experienced real estate broker is recommended to make sure you are finding options suitable for your needs.

 

Finding a location                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
Some sites to check availability and lease rates are below. But best bet if needing a space is to get a referral to a good commercial real estate professional trusted by small business owners. BUT always remember, agents represent the Landlord not you! So review everything carefully and have an attorney review your lease before signing!
