Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Seller’s Agent?
A seller’s agent (or listing agent) works solely on behalf of a building owner (or seller) to advocate for the interests of the seller during their building sale process with the utmost good faith, loyalty and fidelity. At the start of a relationship with a seller’s agent, the broker will outline the definitions of working relationships and the seller will sign a listing agreement.
What is My Building Worth?
Determining commercial property value is more art than science. An experienced commercial broker knows how to combine market knowledge and data with the appropriate valuation method to identify the value of a commercial property.
There are four methods of commercial real estate valuation.
- The sales comparison approach, which relies on sales comparables.
- The cost approach looks at the cost of rebuilding the property.
- The income approach is the most common technique and is based on the amount of income the property is expected to generate.
- The gross rent multiplier method is based on the possible rental income that can be achieved.
What is the Commercial Sales Timeline?
Answering the question, “How long will it take to sell my property?” is not cut and dry, but the first two weeks of taking your commercial real estate to market are key in a fast sales timeline, since commercial brokers check new listings daily for their property buying clients. The best way to make a good impression is to price a building for sale from the start.
Another consideration in the commercial sale timeline is if a business is associated with the listed commercial property. The unique aspect of selling commercial property and selling a business, is that it opens up the pool of potential buyers. Your commercial broker can advise on how to position the property for sale and will work with a business broker to manage the transaction.
Can I Expect to Pay Taxes on my Building Sale?
When selling commercial real estate, there are often taxes associated with the sale called capital gains taxes. There are some opportunities like a 1031 exchange that can help defer or minimize tax fees. It is best to speak with your financial advisor on addressing your specific financial situation and the long and short term tax implications.
