Re: Finding space

We were able to find vacant warehouse space for three years. We worked with a local commercial realtor to identify potential properties and then approached the owners.

A few important points:
1) You need to have liability insurance
2) You may need to contribute to the building's utility costs
3) A written and executed agreement between the team and the property owner is a good idea
4) The above suggests that the team needs to be a legal entity
5) You need to be ready to move out quickly is a buyer or lessor appears

Hope this helps.
