What is commercial real estate ?
If a person was asked ’what is commercial real estate, a flippant response could be ‘Anything that is not residential real estate’ and that would be reasonably close.
We all recognise shops, offices and industrial sheds as commercial but it also covers medical, storage sheds, hotel and motels, infrastructure such as airports, speciality commercial property like child care centres, service stations and car wash.
Therefore, commercial property is any buildings or land used to generate a profit either from rental income, capital gain or a combination of both.
If considering commercial property, it is best to understand the business behind the tenant. That is part of the reason retail and office commercial property is popular with many first time investors in commercial property.
