7 Cents is High ...
Hey Ron P.
I know what you mean, here in st. louis you cant even
come close to 7 cents a sq ft, but here lies the problem..
I found out all these strip malls charge each store monthly
for snow removal. lawn care, power washing, lot sweeping, etc..
So it is just 1 flat price a month for all the services, to each store
and the property management has cheap equip. pays someone
$7-$9 per hour to do all the above, now I know the individual stores
in the strip mall are not happy with their work, but what can they
do, ? nothing.. The money is in residential, not commercial, and where
you live Ron, you have to assume you will not work for at least 4 months
out of one year, so the rest of the year you can work 7 days a week
12 hours a day to make up for the 4 months off, it still comes out
the same as if you worked all 12 months at 40 hours..
Just a Thought...
