Commercial property investment advice in Australia

1. Research the Market


Before purchasing any property, make sure you do plenty of research. Look at market parameters such as your competitors, long-term potential growth and the amount of investment in that market.


2. Types of Property


There is no single answer every sector has its pros and cons. The property should suit the industry you would ideally like to lease to.


A new commercial property can be a joy at tax time with commercial property depreciation. An older property can allow you to build value and may have a better location.


3. Review the Floorplan


Make a sound investment decision by checking the entire layout plan of the space you intend to purchase.


4. Location, Location, Location


Ask yourself these questions:

  • Does it suit your needs as an investor looking for growth?

  • Will the property suit the needs of the occupier?

Then, look at things like:

  • Proximity to public transport

  • Proximity to essential services

  • Population size and projected growth

  • Is it a holiday destination?

  • Access to major transport routes

  • Access to public transport

  • Proximity to competitors


Need a hand?
