Investing In Commercial Property

Investing in commercial property used to be a game played only by traditional institutions such as the Church and Crown, or by the large investing institutions - those guys who invest for life funds, pension funds, and investment trusts etc.

But nowadays more and more financial institutions have recognised the commercial property opportunity and have established fund investments for the individual investor like you.

And more financial advisers and "money-astute´ people are recognising the benefits of getting directly involved in the commercial property market place.

So what´s it all about?

Well, the commercial property market can be subdivided into: -

1) Retail - e.g., shopping centres, supermarkets
2) Industrial - e.g., warehouses, factories
3) Office - e.g., office blocks and business parks
4) Leisure - e.g., hotels, leisure parks

And each type offers different opportunities.

It´s really important to understand that investing in commercial property is very different to investing in residential property.
