How it works
Starting rent +40. Rent compounds weekly, so it costs 274 by day 49 and 719 by day 98 on Mark Up. The sooner you buy the store, the less it hurts.
Rating

On Thin MarginsRent grows by 10% per payment and there is no starting Rent Grace. Raising the first bill also raises the base of later bills.

Perks that work against it

- Blackmail
Higher rent and weekly cash demands compete with the same operating reserve; combining them is poor opening funding.
