Hi everyone, I figured this might be the best place to put this question.

While I deal more with the residential aspect of Real Estate and have no intention of moving into commercial, I was wondering nonetheless: do you get a greater ROI for commercial or residential Real Estate, in general? (ie. leasing space in a mall as opposed to in an apartment building).

Thanks

The depends on that person's debt service and if any equity sharing is involved amongst a host of other things.How great the deal is returns determines the ROI.

I will say this most start out investing in residential and then switch mainly to commercial as the opportunties are bigger.

hey super, any good books for commercial RE? and did you get my PM?

Last pm from you I have is in May.Did you send some new ones?

Jack Cummings has some decent ones.If you go to Nar's website you can rent out the books in pdf format for free.

Couple other points to note:
While commercial generally has bigger paychecks (relatively speaking) than residential - the paychecks often are less frequent because the deals take longer.

And commercial tends to be very relationship oriented. If you have contacts/friendships with the right persons, your commercial real estate career is much more likely to be successful.
