“Know Your Numbers”- Commercial real estate always has, and always will be a numbers game.  Know your numbers and work with a commercial real estate broker that is an expert in their market. They will bring value and creditable experience to the table. Don’t subscribe to the “greater fool theory” as an investment strategy. The greater fool theory states that a price can be justified by a rational buyer under the belief that another party is willing to pay an even higher price.In other words, one may pay a price that seems “foolishly” high because one may rationally have the expectation that the item can be resold to a “greater fool” later.
