commercial real estate: Feed My Blog...Blogger Will Link for Content - 07/17/07 11:19 AM
I'm reaching out to the Active Rain community for your thoughts on commercial real estate and what you would like to know about it...
Have you had clients that had questions about commercial real estate that you couldn't answer?
Have you ever represented a buyer or seller in a commercial real estate transaction and felt like a fish out of water?
Are you a commercial real estate professional that like most of us only thinks you have all the answers but in reality there is that one area where you wish you had a little more knowledge such as 1031 exchanges or ground leases?

commercial real estate: When Animals Attack!!! and Brokers insist on climbing into the Lion's Den... - 06/28/07 08:58 AM
OK so I'm not talking about lions but that title should grab a few more readers...
I wanted to share an experience I had recently with a residential broker that on behalf of a family member, decided to list a commercial property for sale. 
The following is a true story although the names have been changed to protect the guilty. Incidents like this are happening every day all over the country and probably the world...Please don't let this happen to you.
I recently met with a fellow agent regarding a property she was listing on behalf of some of her family members. Ruthy Realtor, as she'll be … (2 comments)

commercial real estate: 267 Days on the market and counting...Office For Lease - 06/13/07 11:40 AM
Not all office space is created equally... For those of you working in commercial real estate that may have a client/property owner with office space that they want you to lease for them, one of the first things you do is go out to the property and take some photos. For future reference...don't bother taking a photo at all if the office looks like this. This office needs a quick face lift with some paint and flooring and hopefully the old desk and debris will be gone before somebody even considers leasing the space. Convince the property owner to spend minimal … (0 comments)

commercial real estate: "Mill" you please buy me??? - 05/31/07 06:02 AM
I'm only 87 years old, I have 90,000 SF of floor area on two levels in my main building, and I have another 40,000 SF on two levels out back. All of this is situated on 4.5 acres of prime land right downtown Leominster and I can be yours for $2M.
If you act now, you also get to pick up the tab on a complete restoration that could top $5M or more!!!
You're probably asking yourself..."Is this guy crazy???" Why would somebody want to spend $5M to fix up a property they just purchased for $2M (hopefully you can negotiate … (0 comments)

commercial real estate: What is so gross about my lease??? - 05/23/07 04:04 AM
What is a "Gross Lease"?A question I get asked fairly frequently from business owners is what does it mean for a lease to be "gross"? This is a common term in commercial real estate.It doesn't meant that your lease smells funny, has stuff oozing out of it, or anything like that...A pretty good textbook definition is that a gross lease is one in which the landlord pays all expenses associated with the ownership of the property including maintenance, taxes, and insurance.Basically, with a gross lease a tenant pays their monthly rent and the landlord pays all associated expenses with the property. … (2 comments)
