Office buildings are a difficult first investment. Adequate income is the key. If you decide to buy an office building, be sure to make a thorough tenant demand analysis for the subject property. Briefly, a demand analysis would include a forecast or estimate of the need and desire for office space in the community over a long period of time and what the future competition from other similar existing and proposed projects might do to the office building market. If there is nothing in the immediate area renting for $3.5 per square foot of floor area per month, it would be virtually impossible to get any more for your space unless you have a better quality building.

And they don't want me bothering them. I also have a house in Hollywood. The tenants there recently wrote me a note saying they spent about $400 fixing up the yard and wanted to know what I thought about it? I said, "Wonderful. Send me the bill." And that was that. They always pay their rent on time and never complain about anything. It works out just super.

You enhance the potential benefits of leverage whenever you find a way either to borrow at less cost or to increase the percentage of borrowed money you use in the transaction. For example, if you could acquire Property B with a mortgage loan at 6 percent instead of 8 percent, the interest on your $40,000 mortgage would then be only $2,400 a year. Subtract this $2,400 from your $5,000 income on the property, and you¡¯d be netting $2,600, which is a 26 percent annual yield on the $10,000 you invested.
