Commerical Real Estate

As a real estate professional I deal mostly with residential and investment properties, but a few times a year, I'll have a commercial project as well.

Last week, I had a client who closed on a very interesting commercial space downtown. The client, a lawyer, wanted to be near the courthouse and was looking for something different than the usual cookie-cutter law firm office - all on a budget, of course! So, after an extensive search, I found him a property that was a modern loft-style office condo within his targeted area.

Whenever a commercial client relocates, they have to ask themselves a lot of questions. Here are a few to start:
  • Where do you want to be located?
  • How much space do I need?
  • How much parking will I need?
  • What kind of image do you want your building to portray?
  • How will the building affect the marketing of my company?
  • What type of interior space do you want?
  • What price range are you looking for?

The space is being built out now and should be finished in the next few months, and I am looking forward to seeing it completed.
