Experience Counts!
Welcome! When it comes to commercial real estate, there really is an art to the deal. In this very competitive sector, you need someone who has a thorough understanding of commercial properties, how to value and valuate the properties, knowing the issues one has to look at with regards to the building use, zoning requirement, DEP issues etc. Your agent needs to understand your requirements – not only on the square footage requirements, but zoning issues, ceiling heights, voltage, loading docks and doors, water, gas, parking and land coverage.
