Over the past few years, as a commercial property owner in Lancaster NY, we have received many calls from small business owners and looking for a small and cheap office space. Often times, smaller space can be hard to find. Realtors won’t list the properties since there isn’t enough money in it for them to bother. Small property owners aren’t sure how to get it out there other than Craigslist. If you are familiar with the Commercial Real Estate section on Craigslist, you will know how quickly your property gets pushed down the list. Without a manual intervention to move it back up, your office space listing is hardly noticed.
I finally decided to set aside some time to create a web site dedicated to Office Space in WNY. You can find the site at:
For the time being, we are offering free listings of your commercial property. You can purchase a featured listing for $10 per month.
WNY Office Space
Every user will have an account control panel to manage their listings and their listing agent profile. In fact, I would encourage you to list your property if it is occupied, but coming up for lease in the near future. We will be creating a property alert system for users so that they can be notified when a property becomes available.
Feel free to use the contact form at http://www.wnyofficespace.com/contact/ to ask questions or request features.
December 2010 saw the premier of Storage Wars, A&E’s entry into the hot antiques and collectibles show space. There are other shows with a similar theme such as Auction Hunters on Spike TV.
If you are based in the Buffalo area (WNY region), you too can join the storage locker auction frenzy and hope for the best (see below for details on a Jan 19, 2011 auction). There are always storage auctions throughout the WNY region and one local site that will alert you to local storage locker auctions is auctionsinternational.com.
Auction Hunters - Spike TV
Expect the competition to be high and be prepared to meet local storage locker buyers who are fed up with all of the newbies (YOU!) entering their space. You win some, you lose some in the auction market but the big wins should make up for the duds. With more competition fighting for the goods, the margins will get tighter and tighter. You should also ask yourself a couple of questions before bidding.
- Do I have room for all of this junk (smelly junk)?
- Will my significant other stick by me as I bring loads of stuff home?
The shows on TV are certainly fabricated to a degree. I am sure that they have made big finds in the past, but not at every auction. If you read the disclaimer the precedes the airing of the show, you will see that it essentially says that the items are examples of the finds that were made in the past. My hunch is that they seed a single item for each show. The hosts are good actors, but it is fairly obvious that they are “finding” items that have been placed to tell the story of the past find.
If you go to a storage auction, you might be entertained, or you might simply become disillusioned. I can tell you this, you will have a different view of shows like Storage Wars after your live auction experience.

This was an interesting find. When you are pulling apart a house that was built in 1889, you are likely to find some interesting things. I must admit, there haven’t been too many with this latest project. However, the plumbers had reading material in the upper bathroom and left a section of newspaper behind. I was hoping to find some advertising from companies that are still around today, but there weren’t any that I recognized. One interesting ad is for Zimmerman lumber. As it turns out, one of the family members (George J. Zimmerman) was the former mayor of the City of Buffalo.
