Solutions:
Paperwork, inspections, financing, disclosures. It takes many
elements coming together-often quickly and simultaneously-to make a commercial real estate
deal happen. A Realtor
can coordinate the
details for you, following a comprehensive checklist, saving you valuable time
and helping you avoid pitfalls. And if the unexpected does occur, it's great to
have a professional problem solver in your corner.
Security:
It's a fact that some potential buyers and sellers try the process on their own,
then quickly turn to a professional. There are many reasons involved. One key
reason is the added measure of safety that can come from a
Realtor
escorting you to properties for sale in unfamiliar areas
or arranging to show your commercial real estate property to prescreened potential buyers.
Experience:
Most people are involved in a handful of real estate transactions
in a lifetime, much less commercial real estate transactions. A
Realtor
may handle that
many in a month, or even a week. That's an important consideration to keep in
mind since real estate is typically our largest single property investment. And just as
you obtain qualified legal and medical service, some things shouldn't be left to
chance.
Value:
Not
many of us have the time or the facts to analyze local real estate pricing. A
Realtor
on the other hand, is a professional
who takes the time each day to evaluate trends and compare commercial real
estate asking/selling prices
in specific areas. That can prove invaluable in helping you determine a
realistic, fair market commercial real estate listing asking price or rental rate .
Understanding:
Mortgages, lease vs. buy options, seller financed sales and many
more. The choice in a commercial real estate listing or transaction can be confusing. A
Realtor
can help you sort out the
alternatives as you decide what makes the most sense for you both today,
tomorrow, and in the future. After all, what's best for a friend or a business
acquaintance, may not be most advantageous to you.
Perspective:
It is only natural: A buyer/tenant wants to pay less, a
seller/Landlord wants to receive more. Negotiating a fair compromise between the
two can be a real challenge, even an art. That's where a
Realtor
comes in, bringing people together, pointing out options,
providing useful insight and information to create a win-win situation for
everyone.
Rapport:
Having a wide support network can be an advantage in any job. A Florida
Realtor, however, is especially fortunate to
be part of the state's largest professional trade organization. This association
gives your realtor access to a vast assortment of real estate services to supplement that
can help your transaction move more quickly and more smoothly.
Expertise:
There are numerous elements to even the most straightforward
commercial real
estate transaction. Many buyers and sellers aren't aware of required disclosures
because disclosure laws change. A
Realtor
has resources that provide updates on constantly changing rules and regulations.
This knowledge can protect you from last minute and long lasting complications.
Peace-of-Mind:
Choosing a new space for your business is an important decision.
Yet in looking forward to your move, you should not be burdened with the nuts
and bolts of a commercial real estate transaction. That's the role of your
Realtor, who can take care of the details
for you and help you appreciate your wise decision.
