Commercial Property Sales and Leases in Exeter

A commercial transaction guided by what the building earns, what its leases require and what its zoning permits.

Income, Leases and Use Before Any Price

The value of a commercial building rests on facts that are rarely visible from the sidewalk: the rent it collects, the expenses it carries, the length and quality of its leases and the uses its zoning allows. Real Estate Agent Exeter represents owners, investors and operators in the purchase, sale and lease of shops, offices, warehouses and mixed-use buildings, and those facts are gathered before any figure is discussed. For a seller, that means organizing rent rolls, expense records and lease copies so a buyer can evaluate the property with confidence, which tends to shorten negotiations and support a stronger price. For a buyer, it means reading each lease for renewal options, rent increases and repair obligations, confirming that the intended use is permitted and planning inspections inside the contract period. In a town where a downtown storefront, a packing or industrial building and a small office suite may all come to market in the same season, each property receives the review that suits its use and its income.

Elements of Our Commercial Work

Each commercial transaction has its own character, though most involve the following pieces of work.

  • Operating statement review

    Rents, vacancies and expenses examined so the price reflects the income the property truly produces.

  • Lease abstracts

    Key terms, renewal options, escalations and repair duties summarized in plain language.

  • Zoning and use confirmation

    Early verification that the building can serve the purpose you have in mind.

  • Comparable sales and rents

    Recent transactions involving similar property, used to set or to test the asking figure.

  • Offering presentation

    For sellers, a clear summary of the facts serious buyers and their agents will request.

  • Due diligence schedule

    Inspections, document reviews and environmental questions arranged within the contract deadlines.

How a Commercial Transaction Proceeds

  1. Clarify the objective

    Our first conversation covers the building, how it is or will be used, your schedule and the income or square footage you require, and we identify the records that will be needed.

  2. Study and present

    Income, leases and comparable property are reviewed, then the building is marketed or a shortlist of suitable options is prepared.

  3. Negotiate and complete

    Offers are written or answered, due diligence proceeds on schedule and every contingency is followed through to closing.

  • Records before rhetoric

    Discussion begins with the operating figures and the leases, not with adjectives.
