Five Reasons To Hire A Commercial Real Estate
Consultant
2

• There are those who feel that when it comes to
  buying commercial real estate, money can be saved
  by not taking advantage of the services of a
  licensed real estate consultant. They feel that
  they are effective negotiators and know enough
  about the market not to have to hire a
  professional. But is this really the case, or can
  a commercial real estate consultant add value to
  the transaction?

• 1.A real estate consultant can (and probably
  will) save you money
• Often, the consultants fee is very small, and so
  you really can focus on the other cost savings
  that a consultant can bring. Such as they will
  have intimate and detailed knowledge of the local
  market, with access to privileged information and
  skills, experience in all types of negotiations,
  meaning that they may have important market
  information that could maximize profits as the
  business expands. They may also spot negotiable
  items that would save your business money over
  the course of the lease.

• 2.A consultant works for you, not for the
  landlord
• Consultants can search for properties listed with
  many brokerages and will always take into account
  the situation and needs of your company. They are
  focused on you and your needs, rather than on the
  needs of the landlord.

• 3.A consultant can save you time
• The list of commercial properties available can
  easily appear overwhelming, and without the help
  of a consultant, it can be a time consuming
  process to go through them all. With a
  consultants experience, they can quickly whittle
  down the listings to those properties that they
  know will be suitable for your needs. Not only
  that, but with their knowledge and connections,
  they can save you time during the negotiation
  process too, when inspections are being organized
  and when paperwork has to be completed.

• 4.Negotiations and leases are a doddle for real
  estate consultants
• Anyone who has ever been involved in bidding for
  a property, commercial or otherwise, knows that
  the negotiation process can be incredibly
  stressful. Real estate consultants make a living
  from negotiating, so you can sit back and let
  them do the hard work for you. Leases can often
  look as if they contain a dictionary worth of
  confusing words and jargon that no average person
  could be expected to decipher and understand, so
  to have a commercial real estate consultant read
  through, and interpret it for you, could be a
  godsend.

• 5.Real estate consultants and their knowledge of
  the local market will give you the upper hand
• Only those who work day in day out with local
  commercial properties, can be expected to have
  intimate knowledge of the market, and real estate
  consultants will use this knowledge to seek out
  the most appropriate properties for your
  companys needs.

8

• Most consultants keep on top of the market and
  will know about new properties as soon as they
  become available, which will already give you an
  advantage over any competitors. They will also
  know about any restrictions, zoning issues or
  development proposals which might be applicable,
  and which the company owner might not have known
  about.
