Business deals, also known as Opportunities are not the best things going. It's really a little 'booster' to help you earn more money when you are low. Here are the conditions that will spark a business deal:
» It's after the year 1915
» You have under §1,500 dollars
» You haven't accepted another business deal since 3 years
» You haven't rejected another business deal since 5 years
What are the properties of business deals?
» They will bring you some monthly income depending on the type of deal.
» They will bring some drastic negative effects
» Sims will protest for a few years and some might even move away for about 10 years.
Now, for the types of business deals (income measured in months) The higher the Rejecting Rating the more you shouldn't accept the deal:

Income: §400
Negative effects: Really drastic pollution height and drastic landvalue weight.
Rejecting Rating: 9 out of 10
Maximum Security Prison Unlike many predictions this deal atleast doesn't rise crime, but it won't benefit your jail system, either. Sims still won't like to live near one, though.
Income: §250
Negative effects: Landvalue will dwindle drastically.

Where to put these? The best spots are always in the edges of your map. For asthetics reasons, you can put the mall in a suburban commercial area, and the casino can be placed almost anywhere, except near your city center.
