I've been trying to sublease space in an office that I have and been nothing but headaches. We got a new space in a more upscale building, but still hold onto this once since it has a massively large conference room and is close to my house, so I'll keep an office there.
However, we have a number of individual offices within the suite. I talked to the landlord and he has no problem with subleasing the space out, as long as it's not the entire space.
Now come the idiots...
I've posted ads on CL and not sure what I put in there, but attracted the DUMBEST people I have ever met. The prices we have listed are at a good discount, you can't rent a single office in this area for less than $600/mo. so we have them at $400 and comes with all utilities, Internet, etc.
Last woman that came in wanted to start a DAY CARE business, but told me the business would have to be in my business's name because she is not allowed to operate a day care anymore because she had her neighbors kid over to play while other kids at her house, so she lost her license... uhhhh WTF?
Then just spoke to someone on the phone who wants to put HIS name on the door and outside of the building. He's starting a law practice and feels it's important... then he tried to negotiate me down to $300/mo. AND I provide a receptionist for the suite.
So many idiotic people out there, no wonder why commercial real estate agents hate their lives.
The ONLY thing that hasn't been asked yet is to shoot porn. I'd gladly welcome it, since that is more normal than anything else that has come through.
