Buying or selling commercial property.
Whether you're an owner-user acquiring the building your business runs in, or an investor trading a stabilized asset, the analysis has to start with real numbers rather than a marketing package.
Acquisition Representation
-
Owner-User Acquisition
Buying the building your business operates in changes your balance sheet and your control. We'll model purchase versus lease honestly, including SBA 504 and 7(a) financing where it fits.
-
Investment Acquisition
Underwritten on trailing actuals — rent roll, CAM reconciliations, estoppels — not the offering memorandum's stabilized pro forma. The gap between those two is where investors lose money.
-
Business & Restaurant Sales
Going-concern transactions with ABC license transfer, FF&E valuation, and lease assignment. A specialty with its own rules that generalist brokers routinely underestimate.
From valuation to recording.
Commercial dispositions live or die on the quality of the underwriting package and the certainty of the buyer. We manage both.
-
Valuation & Positioning
Broker opinion of value built on comparable sales, in-place income, and current market cap rates.
-
Package & Underwriting
Offering memorandum, rent roll, T-12, and the analysis buyers will run anyway — presented cleanly.
-
Targeted Marketing
Direct outreach to qualified buyers and 1031 exchange money, plus broad listing exposure.
-
Offers & Negotiation
Price, terms, contingency periods, and deposit structure — each of which affects certainty of close.
-
Due Diligence to Close
Managing inspection, environmental, estoppels, and lender requirements through recording.
What buyers will ask for.
Having these ready before you go to market shortens due diligence, reduces retrades, and materially improves your negotiating position. We'll help you assemble them.
Due Diligence Checklist
- Trailing 12-month operating statements, clean and reconciled
- Current rent roll with lease expiration dates and escalation schedules
- Copies of all leases, amendments, and estoppel certificates
- CAM reconciliations for the last two years
- Capital expenditure history — roof, HVAC, parking lot, structural
- Environmental reports, if any exist from prior transactions
