Where do you get such high rent numbers from....and getting a full licence is not difficult or expensive.... Lease for a place is around 30-50$ annually depending on where shop is located. As for councils and immigration they are just for show...they are lousy....there are 100's if not 1000's of RnT shops without licence who have been operating for decades.... It is most lucrative business. Finding a reliable crew is only challenge....but that is easiest to manage.
