SeeJaysPlace 476 Posted November 22, 2013 Yep.. I think i'm going to move in on Dec 1st .. I like that it's month to month.. It's a little small but $225 a month i could come up with easy i think.. That's almost 2 good size jobs of mine! Granted someone just called me the other day wanting me to decal his whole car lot almost 20 feet banner and the whole 9 yards I might get rent for 6 months from that one job LoL !!! The wife is glad to get it out of our " MASTER BEDROOM " at our house hehe Thanks.. I hope it works good to .. I think it's like a 12x10 room or somethign like that .. I just can put my screen printing press there.. no access to water for my washout booth But i can always still do that at the parents house like i have been doing lol !! I might buy me a 1 color 1 station press just for at the shop that is mainly what i do anyways.. .. Thanks guys! Calvin:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

security802 686 Posted November 23, 2013 Take the plunge, month to month the most ur out is a month or two rent. But then you know if you want a store front or go back to the house. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mabscotthandyman 1,410 Posted November 23, 2013 Take the plunge, month to month the most ur out is a month or two rent. But then you know if you want a store front or go back to the house. I have thought about a retail setting for signs and banner sales. I have not had a office since the late eightys when i had a dealership on modular home sales and installation and a office was required for the dealership in the years i had the dealership i had two customers in the office ...most sales were on the customers lot or their residence and all the repair, handyman service is point of sale. I thought a retail setting may produce a flow of sign work for when i finally retire to suppliment my income. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
