In my case, I sell Convenience Mini-Mart Stores with Gas...and have a regular number of inquiries. Then we have some apartments, and the phone will not ring. I do not think, though, that the commercial market has been hit as hard as the residential, other than due to the overbuilding in our area.

We've gotten some amazing "bargains". All along you can find a way to make smart money. Once the market returns to "normal" it will be harder for the smaller investor to make the kind of deals they can now. Maggie M.

What buildings were added were "built-to-suit". In spite of that, vacancy rates continue to be steady, particularly in suburban areas in the North East. Tenants, particularly small tenants have a plethora of choices.
