Due to the fact that most savings accounts are currently offering negligible interest rates on balances, increasing numbers of people are looking at new ways to make their money work for them, with investment in property being an extremely popular option.

Investment in commercial property in particular often offers investors an opportunity for potentially high returns with the possibility of fewer management responsibilities when compared with residential property, making it a very attractive proposition. When renting out commercial properties, the tenant usually bears a greater deal of the maintenance duties, allowing the owner to rent out the property with fewer worries than they may have were they renting out a residential property.

The record-low mortgage rates also mean that it is now more affordable for growing businesses to expand into more suitable premises, in order to meet the needs of their business and keep up with their expansion. Conversely, if a business is downsizing, outsourcing an aspect of their business or attempting to streamline their operations and has a surplus of space which they may no longer require, moving into more appropriately sized premises has a number of benefits, including reduced running costs, a reduction in the amount of business rates payable and the release of any equity held in the larger property.

Whether you are new to commercial property, an experienced investor looking for new ways to expand your portfolio, or an established business looking into the possibility of a move to new premises, getting the advice and guidance you need early in the process is vital to ensure that you know exactly what you’re becoming involved in, and that you get the property or deal that’s right for you.

When purchasing, selling or renting out Commercial Property, it is extremely important to avoid ambiguity and eliminate any confusion around the terms of the deal. Experienced investors may understand the terminology of an agreement, however if there is the slightest confusion there is always the possibility that a dispute will arise in the future, and potentially eat into any profits made from a sale, or decrease the value of the property for future transactions.
