Sale of the Building


This is a building I have owned for twenty years. I am a psychotherapist and am in the process of retiring, not wanting to be a landlord in my "golden" years. The building was a small neighborhood grocery store most of it's life. It currently has three offices, a bathroom, break room, and waiting area.

The tenants now include two psychotherapists, as well as three other therapists who are subletting part time. Although the building is fully rented all renters are on a month-to-month lease so in the event a new buyer wanted the space they could vacate by closing. In terms of rental potential, the vacancy rate has been a total of two months over twenty years.  There is the investment potential of adding 1-2 other offices.

The building has been carefully maintained and upgraded over the years. Both the sewer and the roof are under warranties. A new swamp cooler with a thermostat was installed June, 2013.

It is represented by Michael Sullivan and Ben Gilliam of Coldwell Banker Commercial. Please make inquiries to 303-238-7777.

About Me

My photo
I am a psychotherapist (now retired) and photographer. When in college I wanted to be a cultural anthropologist, but I couldn't figure out how to do fieldwork in some remote part of the world with a wife and small daughter. So I changed my major to Sociology. I eventually became a clinical social worker. I burnt out on that field in my mid-thirties, and went to art school in commercial photography. However, in the end the best balance proved to be as a private practice psychotherapist, with photography as an avocation. This eventually synthesized with my original interest in indigenous cultures around the world (I've been to 47 countries) photographing people for a project called "One Planet -- One People". My other photographic interest is wildlife, and I have been on a dozen African safaris, as well as Yellowstone in every season, and Alaska to photograph brown bears. My reasons are similar to photographing indigenous people: the ecosystem is collapsing and much of the wildlife I witness now may soon be gone. I have now come full circle, building a photo studio on Whidbey Island offering professional portraiture, and working on a photo book project.
