Are You Using The Right Real Estate Agent?

When you are ready to buy, sell, or lease commercial real estate, who do you turn to? Many people work with their residential agent or broker to help them with their home. Makes sense as real estate is real estate, right? Wrong! Commercial real estate is complicated. Commercial brokers are experienced in asking questions that not only will affect the sale initially, but in the future as well. Questions such as; hook height, overhead door height, sidewall height, sumps, electrical power, access, utilities, easements, triple net leases vs. gross lease, rent-able square footage, CAM charges and so forth.

Commercial real estate agents have weathered many challenges in regards to closing a commercial deal. With that said, they are not experts when it comes to assisting with a residential sale. Their knowledge, the data they review & statistics focus on the commercial market & would be of little use in the residential real estate world.

Let’s look at specific topics that Commercial Real Estate agents specialize in.

Expertise & Experience

On average, the age of a commercial real estate broker is 60 and they have been in the business for over 15 years. They have spent countless hours learning the commercial real estate trade both by educational opportunities and from the school of hard knocks. This experience and education helps them navigate you through your real estate transaction. Asking a residential broker to help you with a commercial transaction is like asking a plumber to help you with your electrical problem. It might work but wouldn’t you prefer to have the person who works with that daily rather than someone who is figuring it out as they go?

Commercial Agents & Time Management

Residential and commercial real estate have very different methods when going about their customers' purchase. Arguably, one purchase is made with the mindset of your business and the other purchase is made with the mindset of your day to day life. Both are equally important, but they are completely different perspectives. Commercial brokers can be used as a time management tool. They know what questions to ask & how to identify what is important to your business. They then research the market, give you prospective properties that fit your needs & discuss the short term and long term advantages or challenges to each property. Ensuring the most effective use of your time when looking for new options for your business.

Contacts

Residential agents and brokers know who has buyers and/or sellers within a specific price range. They align themselves with these agents/brokers so they can efficiently work within that market segment. Commercial brokers like to deal with other commercial brokers, plain and simple. They will share sales and leasing information with other commercial agents that may not be open to the public. They also share information on properties they have listed that might fit another buyers’ or tenants’ needs or vice versa.

These are just a couple comparisons between what Commercial Real Estate agents specialize in. Reach out to your local commercial agent to ask any additional questions you may have

I am interested in buying commercial real estate for income. What type of properties have the best return with the lowest risk? Retail, office, industrial, or multi-family?

The answer is all of them and none of them. Not to get cute, but the return vs. risk equation can really be the same for each of those property types. Your return is not determined by the property type but more by the quality of the property, reliability of the tenant, ease of re-leasing the space, cost of maintenance and likelihood of appreciation. In other words, you can make a great return from a retail, office, industrial, or multi-family property or you can get whacked by any of them. The trick is to buy wisely and weigh those factors carefully. The more successfully you can do that the better your return.

What is an easement and why is this important to you?

Many times, when I am talking to my clients and we are reviewing the title commitment the property may have easements that run along the side or across the property. Even though they are there most people do not ask the question as to how these effects the usage of the property they are looking to purchase.

First, an easement is a right to cross or otherwise use someone else’s property. This could be the right of the neighbor to cross your land to get to theirs, a utility easement such as a pipeline or electrical power line, or water or sewer lines. If there is an easement on your current property or one that you plan on purchasing, you need to understand all the details regarding it. Details such as how wide is the easement, how close can you build to it, can you pave or concrete over the top of it, what are the rights of the easement holder into access, repair and replacement or damage to your property.

Here would be an example of an issue that could greatly affect the value and the usage of a property. Let us say that a gas pipeline runs across the property diagonally and runs within 2 feet of an addition to the building. The previous owner(s) never got a building permit or checked with the pipeline owner with regards to this easement. The easement has a 25’ no build clause in it on either side of the pipeline. So for 50’ you cannot build or cover the easement and if you do and the pipeline needs to be repaired or replaced on your property the pipeline company would have the right to tear down any or all of the structure covering the easement and not have to replace it. Imaging how this could affect the value of the property and how it would affect your business.

Having an easement on your property may have no, little or major effect to the value of your property. But shouldn’t you know?
