Finding The Perfect Space For Nailix

Challenge

The Challenge

Nickolas Duval, principal of Duval’s Nail, LLC, has several years of international experience as a nail technician. While gaining this experience, Nick sharpened his expertise in all aspects of the business from front of the house nail services to back of the office management. With Nick’s knowledge of the business, it was becoming clear that he was ready to start thinking about opening his own salon. The challenge now became what was the right market to break into and how would he find the space.

Solution

The Solution

Nick already had the knowledge of the business, now all he needed was the assistance of a knowledgeable Commercial Real Estate Advisor to guide him to the right location. Nick originally contacted one of our advisors here at Ellis Realty Advisors in November of 2023. Our advisor introduced Nick to one of the properties we had listed in Raynham Massachusetts. The property was undergoing a change of ownership and the space needed a lot of work, but the building had great bones and the location was perfect right on route 138 in Raynham just off of the highway.

Our advisor stuck with Nick through the change of ownership and kept him in the loop right up until it was the right time to move forward on a lease execution. By February of 2024, Nick now had a space of his own and it was time to begin the remodeling process to make the space his own.

The Results

After several months of renovations, Nailix's new space was ready, and Nick was on his way to conducting his grand opening, and working on his marketing to get the word out there. The new high-end salon is a great addition to the newly renovated Raynham Depot, and will serve as a key tenant in the building for years to come.
