“They’re building mega-warehouses all over the place here - all are empty.”

Pennsylvania

Here in Florida shopping centers that had department store anchors are in sad shape. The one nearest me I believe was repossessed because the busy Costco alone wasn’t enough.

You may, BUT I picked a place that is strict....and per capita is 60-80 K..... best school district and family oriented. Pick and choose...also lots of ammo here!

Excellent question. They all seem to be “off market” with build dates of 1900. They all have different names, and no contact info.

“Why not have a security guard monitor the store, could be remote, and if someone is shop lifting they would lock the outer doors so the thieves can’t leave and once the thieves get to the external door, close and lock the interior door as you call the cops”

They can just use former walmarts, targets, kmarts and best buys as distribution centers. No need to build anything new.

Build dates of 1900....and, they’re mega-warehouses?

Who was the visionary/visionaries who built them?

Are they on any tax rolls?

Incredible.

1900 I think is the default date on real estate sites - they’ve all been built in the last 5 years or so. I haven’t checked the tax rolls, so that may be a good place for me to look next.

Set it up like Service Merchandise and you’ll only run into employee shrinkage.
