Good Value Henderson Commercial Real Estate

By Ina Hunt


Over the past few years the property market has experienced some tremendous changes. For decades prices had increased slowly keeping pace with the overall economy. Property could also be viewed as an investment that could be sold if the need arose. That has all changed and people are now finding that they are stuck for a piece of property for months or even years. This creates a lot of financial and emotional stress that most people would rather live without.

The state of the south west have been particularly hard hit by the recession. Nevada was really a big part of the property boom with a lot of new construction going on. Since the crash Henderson commercial real estate has become much harder to sell and prices have fallen steeply. Yet this does provide many excellent opportunities for those who want to invest and have the capital to do it.

Many potential investors are looking at property that sold for two or even three times the current asking price. Anyone who has ever wanted to invest in a commercial building should start to look around at what is on offer. Meeting with a good agent to go over the listings is the first step in the process. The agent will show each client a number of buildings to see which meets their needs the best.

Some people are just looking to lease. This can be a good way to test the waters and see how viable a building really is. Some places look great on paper but never really work out due to a number of factors. They may have an awkward layout that is off putting for potential renters. They may be located in a bad part of town or they may simply lack sufficient parking.

Location is one of the most important factors to consider. Retail outlets or restaurants need a high traffic location with lots of parking. The buyer must consider the potential uses of the building to see how much it is ultimately worth. They should also factor in the overall economy in the area and see how likely it is to sustain good economic growth over the next few years.

Commercial properties can range from small office buildings to huge corporate parks and everything in between. The age of the building is also very important. An older complex that is in need of repairs and upgrades is not worth as much as new construction. The design and layout of the offices is also very important. Buyers should always look at each unit in a very objective way to ensure that they are fully aware of both its positive and negative sides.

Well before any sale takes place all parties should meet with their legal counsel to make sure the paperwork is in order. This may seem like a mundane part of the business, but it is non the less very important. Even a tiny glitch or mistake can hold up the closing and cost all parties extra money.

Commercial buildings vary in size significantly. Buyers should have a clear idea about the possible uses for the units before making a purchase. They must also know how much rent they will have to charge to break even or hopefully make a profit. They should then research how much rents are in neighboring units to ensure that they are not over priced.
