Kind of a life time rental agreement ?
Sounds interesting. This might be a good idea.
But won't the mony winn over the idea ?
There's always that issue. I find it analogous to retirement homes in
this area. People 'buy' a retirment home, townhouse, apartment, etc. for
a fixed price and then live there. When they die, it belongs to the
retirement home to sell again. The cycle continues. If you've seen some
of the homes around here, you know they've been around for a while. Part
of the charge funds maintenance fees and lawn care (the latter not being
important for computers). The continuous re-renting of the property
helps keep the available funds around to maintain everything.
So, like a crowded restaurant with a line outside, the best interest
from a business point of view is a quick turnover to
clear the table
for the next customer (or why did you _think_ the waiter always
shows up with the next course before you've gotten half-way through
the one before?). Especially if every table is prepaid, so no tip
is expected.
