Lesson 2: Model less, think more: Spreadsheet-only buyers struggle with messy deals because judgment, sequencing, and patience matter more than perfect inputs. Lesson 3: Ask ‘greed or speed?’ before structuring a deal: Sellers typically optimize for maximum dollars (greed) or fast resolution (speed)—structure your offer accordingly. Lesson 4: Complexity can reduce fragility: Multiple tenants or mixed-use streams may feel messy, but granular vacancy risk beats catastrophic single-tenant failure. Lesson 5: Operational complexity can increase revenue: Sub-metering utilities or optimizing expense allocations adds work—but can materially boost NOI. Lesson 6: Messy deals age better than perfect ones: Clean assets are fully optimized on day one; messy deals compound value as leases normalize, repairs get solved, and systems improve. Lesson 7: Banks fund business plans, not just buildings: Lenders care about the stabilized end state—if the plan to fix the mess is credible, financing follows.
