- Commerical Real Estate Tips You Can't Live Without The commercial real estate market can be a confusing subject with all of the different opinions and information that is available - especially when a lot of it is contradictory. If you are looking for all of the basics regarding commercial real estate, plus some other tips that you might not have heard of, this article is for you. Commercial real estate can be a great long term investment. When looking for a property that you can rent out as apartments, look into properties that have at least ten or more units, in order to maximize your profits. The more units that a property has, the cheaper each individual unit is. Cleaning up your neighborhood can work wonders for your property value, especially if there are several run-down or abandoned buildings in your area. The best thing to do is report any health or safety risks to the authorities. These types of safety risks can include, shattered windows, rusty fences, debris and things of this nature. If the authorities will clean out the neighborhood for you, you can end up saving money on demolition and increasing the overall, neighborhood real estate values. Before you rent your new house or apartment be sure you have enough references. Most landlords require at least three references. Check the names, addresses and phone numbers for accuracy. There is nothing worse than a reference whose name is incorrect, the phone line is disconnected or the letter the landlord sends comes back as undeliverable. Another factor to be aware of when shopping for property to rent or lease is who pays for pest control. Talk to your rental professional regarding pest control policy if you rent in a community known for bug or rodent infestation. Even though your broker has all of the connections and the know-how, make sure that you find one that is still going to allow you to be in control. In the end, you are the one that is going to be dealing with the property, so you should have the most control over the situation. One tip to being a good landlord is to make sure you check the references of anyone you would like as a tenant. Sometimes people can put on a good show and seem like they would be good tenants when in reality they would create a lot of problems for you. Better to be safe than sorry. At first, you may be required to spend a significant amount of time on a commercial investment. Not only will you have to search out the right property, you'll likely have to make repairs or renovations to it after the purchase. Don't let the amount time you need to put in during this phase discourage you. You will reap the rewards of all your hard work. When you are trying to consider which property to buy and you are having a hard time narrowing things down the best thing you can do is make a checklist. Review each property and the one that has the most check marks should be the one that you buy. You know already that you're a motivated buyer; now you just have to find an aptly motivated seller who is ready and willing to list and sell their property for well under the market value. Seek out owners of commercial properties who have a pressing need to sell and are therefore more open to negotiations. If you are looking at a particular commercial real estate listing, and you come into contact with a person who is at the property - be sure to find out if they are an agent or an employee of the owner of the property. It will protect the interests you have in the property. You need to map out an action plan for yourself when dealing with commercial real estate. You need to keep in mind many factors such as: How many people are paying rent to you? How much money can you afford to invest in your commercial property? How much rental space is left to fill? As stated at the beginning, there is quite a bit of information regarding commercial real estate. Hopefully you will find these tips beneficial. You should now find yourself ahead of the game if you are working to become an expert, or just trying to get a bit of background information.
