I had an interesting meeting this weekend with a commercial real estate investor in Reading, PA.  This investor has several projects in different stages of development throughout the city.  He asked me to sit down and discuss his overall portfolio and help him figure out if and how I can help him...

I recently wrote a post where I mentioned investing in real estate using a self directed IRA, and since then I have received a ton of questions about how this works.  While I am very capable of helping you find, purchase, and manage commercial real estate investments for your IRA, I'm not an IRA ...

No really, real estate is actually worthless.  I'm sure that this might sound strange coming from someone who sells commercial real estate for a living.  Does this mean that I've been tricking investors for years now?

I'm often asked the question whether or not commercial real estate should be listed on the local multiple listing service (MLS).  Apparently there are some commercial real estate agents out there who tell their clients that they don't need to put their commercial property on the MLS, and there ar...

I realized that my blog post yesterday was titled NNN or Gross...

I spend a lot of time talking about investing in commercial real estate in Reading, PA.  I've mentioned all the great deals and explained why I think that this is such a great opportunity to buy.  I realized today that some sellers might read this and assume that I think they need to 'give away' ...

I've been told time and again that the biggest challenge faced by commercial real estate investors is finding enough high quality investments to keep them gainfully employed.  A good friend of mine used to refer to finding new deals as "Feeding the Beast".  Without a steady deal-flow investors ar...

Most of the commercial real estate investors that I know started off in the real estate business as residential investors.  As you can imagine, most people don't start off by buying a mall or a hotel.  So why is it that many successful investors make the switch from residential investing to comme...
