1 Negotiate A Long Lease Period

5 Essential Tips to Selling Commercial Real Estate Property

One of the best times to trade an investment property is shortly after the lease has been renewed.

A property that has a short lease period remaining is not positioned to generate a stream of secure income over the long-term, which is what every investor wants most. A lease period of ten years or longer is ideal.

2 Establish Profitable Lease Terms

5 Essential Tips to Selling Commercial Real Estate Property

The lease should have attractive terms.

For most commercial income property investors, attractive terms mean:• a triple net lease in which the lease payment is at least average for the market

• the property owner has total control over establishing new lease terms when the present lease agreement expires.

4 Make Necessary Repairs

5 Essential Tips to Selling Commercial Real Estate Property

Selling commercial income property is similar to selling a home: no one wants to acquire property that needs a slew of repairs.

The most important repairs are those that are necessary for the property to pass inspection, but making aesthetic repairs to sidewalks, windows, and ceilings can have a big impact, too.
