Learn These Easy Tips About Commercial Real Estate Investing


Commercial real estate and residential real estate are two separate worlds. The tactics you use to locate and buy residential will have no use for you in the realm of commercial property. Use the tips we lay out in this article if you want to find the best deals around on the commercial properties you want.

Purchase contracts vary in many different ways and can really be misleading to the untrained person trying to work their way through them. A real estate agent will help you maneuver through this part of the process so you will not end up finding out any loopholes that you may have missed down the road.

Is it possible to work with real estate without using an agent? Well, technically it is, but it is generally not recommended. You are not merely paying an agent for their expertise, but more importantly for their network. With the contacts they have, your real estate will receive much greater exposure and will sell considerably quicker.

If you are in a roommate situation you should have everything in writing that clearly states what is expected of each person as far as rent and bills is concerned. This will come in handy if someone tries to move out without paying all that they are responsible for.

For commercial property owners, make sure that your lease agreement is readable and understandable. You want your tenant to feel comfortable with you and the beginning of them feeling this way toward you is to be straight forward with them. Answer any questions that they may have for you, regarding the lease or anything else.

Make business cards. Pass these out to everyone you meet. You never know when someone may call you with advice, a tip on a house for sale, or even to ask you to represent them as their investor. Business cards are a simple way to get your name into the real estate world.

Don't settle on investing residential apartment properties as a safe bet. Many seasoned commercial investors are comfortable with apartment complexes, which often leads them to overlook other potentially lucrative property types: office buildings, trailer parks, or retail spaces. Consider your specific investment niche and your ideal portfolio and look for property types that appear to be a likely fit.

Network and make connections with other real estate investors, as this is an excellent way to learn about great deals. Not only is this a good way to find possible properties to buy, but you will also gain a great deal of knowledge from the different experiences of other investors.

The best way to make money on commercial real estate investments is to have partners. Invest a lot of time looking for private lenders or partners to deal with. Having go now can help provide the credit or money you may need to buy a property. You can compensate your partner by paying a fixed interest rate, a percentage of the property's income, or profit when you go to sale.

Remember to take everything your real estate agent says with a grain of salt. While they technically are on your side, at the end of the day they prefer to turn several quick purchases instead of making $100 extra by pushing for the absolute best deal for you. Listen to their advice, but remember to make your own final judgement.

See to it that you're dealing with companies that care about their customers before you engage them in a commercial purchase. If you don't, you might wind up suffering over the long haul for an otherwise preventable error.

Make sure you know what kind of environment your property is located. The one who'll have to clean up any environmental waste on your property is you. Perhaps you are looking at property located in a flood plain. Take the time go think things over before taking action. It's possible to get information specific to the locale you're considering by contacting environmental assessment agencies in that area.

You should not limit your online and real life interactions to brokers only. You should also reach out to potential customers. Staying in contact with brokers is important, but building a customer base gives you credibility and allows you to rent your property very easily once it is ready.

When you consider investing in a real estate property remember that you are not just making the initial investment in the property, but rather will be investing in the property over the course of its lifetime. What is your long-term plan for maintaining the property's upkeep over the course of the years?

Commercial properties have a lifetime. One of largest mistakes you can make as an property investor is to ignore the fact, that over time, a building will need upkeep, and you will have to pay for it. Every property goes through phases where things will need to be updated, repaired, or replaced. It is best to have a long-term plan so you are able to handle such repairs.

Research and follow up is always the key to understanding the commercial real estate world. Remember, talk to your financial advisors, as well as, a title or deed officer. Since you will be purchasing a property for commercial uses, it is always a good idea to have your legal representative be advised of each step of the process.
Honolulu Councilman Proposes Short-Term Rental Compromise
A proposed crackdown on short-term vacation rentals on Oahu has been amended to address several areas of criticism from rental operators, a move that is getting a mixed reaction from the community.


Mayor Rick Blangiardi’s administration introduced Bill 41 last year. The proposal would require bookings to be no shorter than 180 days, increase fees and fines, and compel some condo owners to operate their units as hotel rooms, among other land use changes. The mayor said he aimed to shut down the short-term rental business.


Brandon Elefante, chairman of the City Council’s zoning and planning committee, has since proposed an amendment, written in part by the Department of Planning and Permitting, that “attempts to clarify, simplify and reorganize Bill 41 and focus directly on issues related to short-term rentals,” according to the council.


“With so many moving parts to this issue, it is important that all the pieces fit together cohesively,” Elefante said in a statement. “We welcome community input as this process is complex and multifaceted. We want to find a path forward that is fair and enforceable.”


City Councilman Brandon Elefante, chair of the zoning and planning committee, listened to hours of testimony on Thursday.

Short-term rental operators have strongly opposed Blangiardi’s proposal. Elefante’s bill, which he further amended verbally on Thursday, offered several points of compromise.


It would increase the renewal fee for nonconforming units from $600 every two years to $4,000 every two years, instead of Blangiardi’s originally proposed $5,000. Unlike the original Bill 41, it would allow people to own more than one rental property and restore their ability to legally operate in resort districts.


It would also allow bookings for a minimum of 90 days, up from the current 30 but half the time of Blangiardi’s proposed 180 days.


But at Thursday’s zoning and planning committee meeting, numerous short-term rental operators testified they are still unhappy with the bill.


Margo Brower, a broker with Captain Cook Real Estate, called the legislation “a futile attempt to create a monopoly for the hotel industry.”
