Commercial property investment

by Shanika Pathirane

Investing in a commercial property located at the centre of the city is a dream of many investors, as most of the big developments and businesses are taking place in city centres.

Business owners and investors consider buying commercial building as it provides many benefits. Along with benefits there are drawbacks. But, when comparing to drawbacks, benefits are more and investors are trying to exploit those benefits.

Some of the factors that have to be considered while investing in a commercial property are:-

Location – Today’s ‘hot’ property location can become tomorrow’s ‘wet’ locations. One should have the foresight while selecting location. Though most of the commercial property agents show you properties located in the heart of the city or state, as a person who has good knowledge about real estate you should have the ability to spot locations that will develop into a ‘hot’ spot with in few years. Any wrong site selection may backfire.

Physical condition – Many environmental issues and physical conditions can damage the property. Also check how long the property was used .This helps to measure the wear and tear caused to the property.

Liquidity – Most of the business houses invest in commercial properties in view of availing liquidity in urgency. There are commercial properties which cannot be sold at the expected rate if there is a rumour in the market about the need of liquidity for your business. And there are properties which are investors ‘favourite’. Such properties can be sold at any time and reap gains. It is better to buy such properties and integrate it with your business. In the long term such properties can give you profit. Ask Commercial agents in London to show properties based on certain criteria.

Return on investment - Make sure the commercial property can provide benefits to you as long as it is with you. Before buying the property check the buy versus lease ratio. If the investment done on the property can be returned within a short span then such properties can be included in the ‘hot’ property category.

Before doing commercial property investment it is better to consult with people experts in the respective fields:-

Commercial property agents- Property agents can show you commercial properties according to your requirement.

Property valuation professionals- Show the property to property valuation professional to check whether the property you are going to buy is over-priced or under-priced. Off course, you will be interests in buying undervalued property. Property valuation helps in knowing the current value of the property and the expected future value.

Accountant- He can help is figuring out the amount you can afford and the operating benefits of the property.

Lawyer –A lawyer can help in making negotiations, striking deal and doing transaction in a legal manner.

Mortgage broker –No one likes to spend cash on-hand for investments. Mortgage brokers can help in arranging loans with lowest interest rate.
