Quick definition of commercial property for rent.
Commercial real estate (CRE) is property used for business-related purposes or to provide workspace rather than living space. Most often, commercial real estate is rented by tenants to conduct income-generating activities. This broad category of real estate can include everything from a single storefront to a massive factory or a warehouse.
The business of commercial real estate involves construction, marketing, management, and leasing of property for business use.
There are many categories of commercial real estate such as retail and office space to rent, hotels and resorts, strip malls, restaurants, and healthcare facilities.
The first steps to take.
Before you ever venture outside in search of commercial property for rent, there are a few things you need to do.
First, determine your operating budget based on projected sales.
Second, determine the amount of space you will need. Remember, space means expense; the larger the commercial space, the more it will cost, so spend some time on this calculation.
Finally, determine what kind of commercial property for rent will match your vision. What will it look like? Where will it be? What will the adjoining properties look like? Is there good access to your business? What about parking? Be as specific as possible. The larger the city the more likely you will be able to find exactly what you want, so start out with a very specific list of your needs/wants/dreams.
Options available to you.
You are now ready for the search. Your first option is to go it alone. Drive around town, specifically in the locations you prefer, and look for “for rent” signs, or hop on Google and let your fingers do the searching. This, in our opinion, is a tedious approach, an approach which wastes time, and an approach which has, probably, less than a 50% chance of netting you the property you want.
Second, you can let the pros do the searching for you. Find a trusted real estate broker, one who is local and knows the area, inside and out. Sit down with them, explain your lists, explain your budget, share your dream, and then turn them loose to do what they do best.
Chance of success using this option? We estimate, in a city of decent size, better than 90%
Finally, find a real estate lawyer and/or accountant to review the lease on the property of your dreams, just to make sure everything is in writing which should be there, to help you negotiate for the best lease possible, and to set your mind at ease.
