Buying Notes

What if you were told that you can take advantage of the current commercial real estate market and purchase a piece of property for cheaper than what it’s valued for, without having to compete with other buyers? Would you pounce on the opportunity?

You don’t have to compete with other buyers fighting for short sales and foreclosures, that you can actually bypass them and get the property, way ahead of them, before it even hits foreclosure. Well, instead of purchasing the property, all you have to do is purchase the “note” on the property. Continue reading ‘Buying Notes’

When is too much just too much? When negotiating deals on office space, too much negotiating can backfire, leaving you with no deal at all.

The current commercial real estate climate is a buyer’s and tenant’s market. With that said, they have the upper hand in most of the deals that come their way. Landlords, now more-than-ever, are offering extraordinary deals with low rental rates because the market is so in the dumps. Buyers and tenants can find great deals on office space for a great price. But what happens when buyer/tenant comes across a special deal and they beat-up-the-landlord, beat-up-the-landlord, and beat-up-the-landlord , and then want extra incentives and services on top of it?

Is It Better To Buy Or Lease?

In the world of commercial real estate, this is the million dollar question. It’s what small business owners and entrepreneurs constantly think about every day before making their next financial move.

The answer is very simple once you put pencil to the paper. It will tell you; Buy, Buy, Buy! Especially now, considering we’re in a market with rock-bottom sales prices, short-sales, foreclosures and low interest rates. The time to buy has never been as compelling as it is right now. Your peers might look at you crazy for buying property in a “recession”, but what they don’t understand is that taking advantage of the economy now can catapult your business above all of your competitors. Especially, when the economy is expected to start to rise in the next year-or-so. Continue reading ‘Is It Better To Buy Or Lease?’

When we need to search and find any type information on an unfamiliar subject what do we do? Go online and resort to search engines like GOOGLE, for example. GOOGLE is notorious for being the one-stop-shop for any topic you need information on. You can literally find anything on GOOGLE.

What about commercial real estate? Is there any type of free search engine for users to go online and search about industry news, prices, deals, etc.? Well, you can find some things, but you will not be able to get very qualified and valuable information. Users can get information on various commercial real estate topics but usually, using a good Broker is the best choice. Continue reading ‘Brokers (The Human Search Engine)’

The commercial real estate market is crashing. How many times have you heard this within the last 24 months? I can guarantee a lot. Sales marketers thrive on scaring the heck out of tenants and commercial buyers. The current market is down yes, but this is the time for tenants to take advantage of low lease rates and capitalize on upgrading their office space size to bigger and better spaces for the same if not lower prices. Since the supply of vacant office space has increased and rental rates have decreased this puts available tenants in a very advantageous position based on lease negotiation power. The general public is afraid of the current economy to the point they stop being assertive and stop taking risks. This makes you the leader of the race of getting what you want.

Good For Tenants, Bad for Landlords

In the economic times of today, it is vital for business owners to understand their options and opportunities. The general public will see terms in the news like “recession”, “downtime”, “distress”, etc. and will be afraid to take risks and try to capitalize on a depressed economy. It’s simple, what goes up must come down, and vice versa. It’s the natural law of physics. Even though business owners and entrepreneurs are facing rough times, there is always room for opportunity and growth. This past year, 9 out of 10 U.S. small business owners reported seeing opportunities for their businesses in the current recession and more than 75 percent expect growth. But what’s good for someone, can inevitably be bad for another. Continue reading ‘Good For Tenants, Bad for Landlords’

What’s the one thing that we as Americans hear every single day? Done guessing? That’s right, the horrible economy. We are informed about it every day on the radio, internet, television, etc. There’s not a moment when someone is not speaking about the recession and how hard it is for business owners are over America.

VIDEO: Big City CRE Holding Up, Small Cities Are Toast.

Published December 22, 2009 Office Space Leave a Comment

Video: Mort Zuckerman recently popped by CNBC to talk commercial real estate among other things. A key message. Big cities are actually holding up. Small cities. Not so good.

He continues to describe how rents are lowering and more people are capitalizing on rent prices and upgrading their businesses to bigger and better office spaces. He also discusses how the time to buy is now while interest rates (IR’s) are lower because once interest rates rise in 2010, it’s going to be a lot difficult for small business owners to purchase or lease office space.

On a more positive note, Zuckerman noted that he is seeing more of the vacant office space around the nation being back-filled with new tenants who are taking advantage of the lower rates being offered by landlords. He said now is a great time for tenants to upgrade to upscale offices with rates being at such attractive levels.

Subleasing 101 for Tenants

Published December 16, 2009 Office Space 1 Comment

It’s very simple. Subleasing is a beautiful thing. The main attractive quality of a sublease to a renter is that the rents are usually very cheap and affordable. Especially now, with the current economy in distress, we all love to hear that beautiful word, “sublease”. To a Tenant, a sublease offers a way to get away from a lease obligation, by having someone else pay for it. Sounds like a sweet deal right? Yup, super sweet!
