how can you arrive at a property value without the square feet?
817200
use comparable properties that sold in the area recently.....i.e. 4 bdrms, 2.5baths, remodeled kitchens, home is same age.......many homes in the same development are very similar and are the same age.....it is acceptable to use the sale of comparable properties in the development to determin the property value.

Call a local real estate agent.  Just tell them what you're looking for-size, area, etc, and they'll look it up for you on the mls (multiple listing system)and can give you quotes instantly right over the phone. Real estate agents get sometimes get a reputation for being pushy, but trust me, we aren't all bad. ;) \n\nGood luck.

Mathematical- you need to be able to calculate square footage, roof pitches,etc.\n\nA steady hand-with practice unless you are using CAD ROM programs

this question doesn't make sense.  or are you looking for the dimensions that could possible give you 2500 sq feet.  in that case, just find 2 numbers that when multiplied give 2500.  some examples:\n\n2x1250\n50x50\n10x250\n.25x10000\n\nthe reason your question doesn't make sense is that you can make one dimension infinitesimally small while the other dimmension gets huge.  to no end.

Dependent on what kind of equipment and things you will be offering, I would say shoot for 8,000-15,000 square feet of space.  This will allow you enough room for locker areas, restrooms, workout areas, etc.  Of coarse, you know best as to what you plan on offering, so you may need to go up to 20,000+ square feet.  Just rememeber the more square footage, the more money on overhead in base rent.\n\nTo locate commercial rental space or a building to purchase in Wilmington, you have a number of options.  The Delaware MLS can usually be found by doing a simple search online, and is usually free to access.  www.LoopNet.com is another great resource, but it costs money to use.  LoopNet will let you search by square footage you need, what type of building, and will give you the contact information to reach a commercial realtor who represents a property of interest, or who could represent you in finding a suitable location. \n\nWhen you do find some properties of interest, be sure to contact your local Planning and Zoning department and verify if they will allow your type of use in the building's zone.  Every retail or service use has a different code (For example B-1, C-2), and certain zones only allow certain types of business.  Don't ever sign a lease without looking into this.\n\nAs for what you can expect to pay per square foot, it depends on what type of property you're looking at.  Retail space within a shopping center can be anywhere from $7-$40+ per square foot, dependent on the area, what other cotenants are in the shopping center, etc.  A freestanding building can have similar rental rates.\n\nHope it works out for you!

There are loads of commercial agencies you could contact its strange you should put this question on Yahoo. \nAlso, you cannot change the use of a property without planning permission! If you do you may have to pay to have it all changed back to the way it was.

It depends on the type of appraisal.  If the income approach is used the only measurement of square footage you will be using is how much is charged to tenants per square foot.  So either ext. or int. may be used, the main focus is how much income the property recieves.  Look for things called net leasable area or gross leasable area.  In the sales comparison approach they will use other properties to value your property.  One thing they will look at is square footage, whichever measurement they use, ext. or int., they have to use the same measurement on all properties.  In the cost approach they will use both types of measurements because in this approach they are trying to see how much it would cost to replicate the property.  My best advice would be to contact a local appraiser who deals in commercial properties and ask them.  Some of them won't help but after a few calls you'll be able to find someone who will.

Contact a local real estate office that specializes in commercial retail property. The value of property is based on so many characteristics specific to a property that, even if they can give you a generic answer, that answer may not apply to a property you're evaluating. Size of lot, age of development, amenities and features, how well (or badly) the property has been maintained, current local conditions in the retail sector in the area, etc. The range in values can be tremendous.

Awesome question, because it gets into the whole idea of dimensions.\n\nSo for instance you rent one of those Storage Cubicles to store like, I don't know,  your collection of Spiderman comic books. And they tell you the room is 2  yards by 2 yards. So you do the math and you get 4 sqyds. \n\nBut here's the kicker, they don't tell you how high the ceiling is! So before you rent, you better find out. Some places have low ceilings, like 2 yards (6 feet). I once rented a 2 x 2 storage room which had 4 yard (12 feet!!!!) ceilings. I piled my skis, boxes, bed up into like a total tower!\n\nIn the first example 2 x 2 with a 2 yd ceiling you get 8 cubic yards for $50 a month.\n\nIn the second example 2 x 2 with a 4 yd ceiling you get 16 cubic yards for the same price!\n\nGenerally you need to check your dimensions before trying to convert.\n\nLike if you just type \n\n4 square yards in cubic yards\n\ninto Google, you won't get an answer because the dimensions totally don't match up. square yards can't be converted into cubic yards, just like 2 liters can't be converted into kilograms (unless you know what's inside the 2 liter bottle).\n\nBut you can type in the arithmetic like this\n2 yards(4 square yards) in cubic yards\n\nAnd Google will say:\n2 yards * (4 (square yards)) = 8 cubic yards\n\nThen there is the whole dumpster "yard" thing where a yard actual stands for a cubic measure. Funny thing is that a dumpster "yard" does not equal a cubic yard. Yikes! Same with lumber sizes. Too weird. So watch it out there!
