Why do special purpose properties cost more?
Special purpose properties require us to research a wider trade radius, sometimes the entire United States!

Also, the market analysis section of the report many times requires a greater amount of research time and it is not uncommon to have to purchase studies performed by industry experts to properly show the dynamics affecting the property type.
