DRK’s Commercial Property
Investment Services
Office Space
Commercial office space is designated for business operations, including meeting rooms, conference centers and workspaces. Offices offer a steady source of income since tenants typically sign long-term leases, providing steady cash flow. This type of commercial investment property also provides tax advantages.
Flex Space
A flex space is an adaptable commercial property that combines offices, industrial spaces and retail properties. The layout is customizable to suit tenant needs and features large, open spaces that are easy to reconfigure. Flex spaces can diversify your income, helping you maintain your return on investment.
Industrial
Warehouses, manufacturing facilities and distribution centers fall under industrial commercial real estate. This type of investment property is larger than other types of CRE to accommodate operations, storage and equipment. The growth in e-commerce has made industrial space an attractive investment opportunity that provides stable demands and higher yields.
Retail
Whether it’s a standalone shop or a business in a complex, retail commercial space requires functionality and ease of access to support customer interactions. Retail is often part of mixed-use developments that require office space and client-facing areas. It’s adaptable and serves as an attractive opportunity for different tenants.
Land
A plot of land that’s zoned for commercial use presents development opportunities, including retail, office, hospitality and industrial spaces. It serves as a blank slate that you can customize to suit your investment goals and diversify your portfolio. You may also lease commercial land to generate passive income.
Coworking
A coworking space may include multiple businesses, offices and areas for freelance and remote workers. This type of CRE typically includes shared resources, reducing operating costs. The flexible design also makes coworking space easy to scale for different revenue streams.
Benefits of Commercial
Property Investments
Income Generation

Cap rates tend to skew higher for commercial real estate than their residential counterparts, too. In addition to rental payments, parking, signage, storage and advertising present further income opportunities.

Protection Against Inflation
Unlike fixed-income investments, commercial real estate income increases over time. Property appreciation also provides capital growth even during times of economic upheaval. That also enhances your property’s resale value. Certain commercial properties remain in demand, which supports ROI stability.

Asset Appreciation

Tax Incentives
There are a variety of tax incentives that can help you maximize your returns as a CRE investor. Older properties are subject to depreciation, reducing the taxable income on your investment. Mortgage interest deductions, capital gains deferrals and opportunity zones also present a variety of ways to save during tax season.

Tangible Assets
Commercial properties are physical assets that offer stability regardless of economic changes. You have direct control over your investments and can alter the value of your property through forced appreciation. Commercial real estate also serves as collateral, which lenders often prefer due to its tangible value.

How do I conduct due diligence when evaluating a commercial property for investment?
Due diligence for a commercial property investment is a thorough investigation into the property’s financial, legal, and physical condition.

It’s highly recommended to work with a team of professionals, including a real estate attorney, a property inspector/engineer, an environmental consultant, and a financial advisor or accountant.

It depends on each investment, but key factors to consider include:
- Local economy
