Talk to me about commercial real estate in the US biz. Where do people look for this shit.
If I wanted to start a lazer tag place, would it need to be special somehow, or can I just rent a warehouse and put some decorations up?

Commercial real estate is mostly just keeping track of zoning and local ordinances. No idea what you'd need space wise for laser tag, but as long as you comply with any zoning/epa regs, and noise it's probably fine. The costs tend to be high because of legal paperwork involved. NIMBYs don't like loud venues anywhere nearby them because muh property values.
Just be aware that commercial real estate does not have the same tenant protections that residential real estate does. You don't pay, the 'eviction' process is a lot simpler. In many states they can just show up and start taking stuff to sell to pay the rent. Make sure you understand what your contractual obligations are. The last thing you want is for the landlord to show up and steal your AC unit at 3PM in august.

I am not too worried about not being able to pay - I would have costs up front if I tried this. More interested in the type off bs paperwork.
I have no idea where to start looking. I have two ideas - one is a big warehouse somewhere outside of town, another is a two-three story building near campus. I am guessing the latter would be a lot more expensive, and it seems like it's just talking to owners at that point or something.

tax auctions, my friend. Find a good location and pay $1
