Bob, if you really want to do this...

First, I'd satisfy myself that there really are no "big boys" that might want the place. That could strengthen your negotiating position if you're the only one seriously talking to them.

Finally, I would want a 90-day no-penalty cancellation clause in the lease; one that you could trigger for any reason. If everything is what they say, and you think, you should not need it and they should not be uncomfortable giving it to you.

When the lease in my place finally hit $13,500 (for 4 screens), that's what I used to pull the plug and stop the bleeding.

If you feel you can live with whatever lease you negotiate and you have a "last resort" way out, you might feel it easier to try the programming & marketing ideas you feel would work there.

Good luck!

Jack

Thanks Jack. I'll keep you all informed.

revrobor OFFLINE Platinum Boarder Posts: 986 Thank you received: 19 Karma: 0	Well, I have decided that owning my own place is just a remote possibility. We have been through some hard financial times and my Social Security certainly is much help. So, do any of you owners out there need a manager, assistant manager or projectionist? If you do give me a call and we'll talk (541-690-6395).
