Our commercial real estate services include:


How do I determine the value of a commercial property?

Use income capitalization (NOI/cap rate), sales comps, or cost approach—e.g., a 10,000 SQFT Phoenix office might value at $300-500/SQFT based on lease stability. We offer CMAs leveraging local data to ensure accurate pricing.

Why is this commercial property being sold?

Common reasons include retirement, portfolio shifts, or redevelopment—always verify via seller disclosures. In AZ, we scrutinize for hidden motives like zoning changes to protect your investment.

What due diligence should I perform before buying commercial property?

Review leases, financials (P&Ls), environmental reports (Phase I ESA), title searches, and appraisals—aim for 30-60 days in AZ contracts. Our team coordinates with experts to uncover issues like deferred maintenance.

What’s the property’s physical condition and any hidden costs?

Inspect HVAC, roof, ADA compliance, and seismic standards (key in AZ)—budget 1-2% of value annually for upkeep.

Does the property survey and zoning match the description?

Confirm boundaries via ALTA survey and zoning for intended use (e.g., C-2 for retail)—AZ allows rezoning petitions, but it takes 3-6 months. We verify early to avoid surprises.

Who are the current tenants, and how stable are the leases?

Seek triple-net (NNN) leases with creditworthy tenants (e.g., national chains); review expiration dates and escalations. In Phoenix, 70% occupancy is ideal—our listings highlight tenant quality.

What are typical closing costs for commercial sales in Arizona?

2-5% of purchase price (~$20K-50K on $1M property), covering escrow, title, and transfer taxes ($2.20/$500 value). Sellers often pay commissions (4-6%); negotiate via our expertise.

What classification is the property (e.g., office, retail, industrial)?

Classifications affect financing and taxes—e.g., Class A offices in Phoenix command premiums. Match to your business; our agents specialize in multi-use conversions.

Can I request zoning changes if needed?

Yes, via AZ county petitions (fees ~$1K-5K, 2-4 months)—common for mixed-use. Ensure compatibility; we guide through the Phoenix Planning Department processes.

What exit strategy should I plan for this investment?

Options: sell after appreciation, refinance, or 1031 exchange—target 5-7 year holds in growing AZ markets. Our team models scenarios for optimal returns.
