Frequently asked questions

Commercial Real Estate — Common Questions

What types of commercial real estate are there?

Commercial real estate includes office (Class A/B/C), retail (strip malls, shopping centers, standalone), industrial (warehouses, distribution centers, flex space), multifamily (apartment buildings, 5+ units), hospitality (hotels, motels), and special purpose properties.

What is cap rate and how is it used in commercial real estate?

Capitalization rate (cap rate) is the ratio of a property's net operating income to its purchase price, expressed as a percentage. A 5% cap rate means you'd earn 5% annually on the purchase price before debt service. Lower cap rates indicate higher-priced, lower-risk markets; higher cap rates suggest higher risk or higher yield opportunities.

How is commercial real estate valued?

Commercial properties are primarily valued using the income approach (based on NOI and cap rate), the sales comparison approach (comparable recent sales), and the cost approach (land value plus depreciated replacement cost). Income-producing properties are almost always valued primarily on income.

What should I know about commercial leases?

Commercial leases are more complex than residential. Key terms include lease type (gross, net, triple net), rent escalations, tenant improvement allowances, personal guarantees, exclusivity clauses, and options to renew or purchase. Always have an attorney and a commercial real estate broker review any commercial lease.
