Creative Thinking and Fair Dealing in Commercial Real Estate

I saw a newspaper ad for free seminars in my area for the Institute of Commercial Real Estate.

I didn't go - I want to concentrate on my blogs/websites for now - but I wrote down the website from the ad and checked it out.

I'm not sure if they are a get rich quick scheme or not, but I felt more credibility when I read the founder's blog.

I think it is true that small businesses get added credibility if the owner keeps a blog on the site.

Anyway, I really liked this post.

The guy could have taken the easy way out and raised the tenant's rent - wiping out their family business.

Instead, he did some creative thinking, and worked out a win-win situation that still made him money, and did not hurt them.

To me, this envisions the type of creative, ethical businessman I like to be.
