While home real estate prices are on the rise in the US, commercial property prices seem to be going the opposite direction, with prices down 5.472% from last year, according to Trading Economics. This is not a good time to be putting a business property up on the market. For now, you’d do well to improve your property’s appearance and utility in preparation for when prices surge back up. Here are three ways you can significantly boost your business property’s value.
Income-Producing Additions
Amenities and extra facilities such as laundromats are also a great way to increase your property’s value. They make the entire property look more fleshed out, and they add utility and convenience to the property. Why go out for a cup of coffee or to work out, if you can go to a fitness center and coffee shop within the property itself? This also increases employee productivity by decreasing travel time to the amenities they want. With these, your property can end up as a miniature commercial center of sorts, brimming with lucrative income-producing additions.
Property Improvements And Upgrades
Another surefire way to add value to the property is to make improvements to it. Cosmetic additions make the area more marketable, and can even allow you to increase rent if you rent out some parts of the property. It’s important to note that this doesn’t just apply to the grounds and building exteriors, but interiors as well.
One of the biggest improvements you can make to your property grounds is to clear it of any obstructions such as rocks and out-of-place trees. For this purpose, you can find plenty of information on LandClearingUSA.com and inquire about getting land clearing services anywhere in the US. Building exteriors can be improved with renovations or even just a fresh coat of paint. As for the interiors, things as simple as better lighting and a few paintings can boost property value by a significant amount.
Retool It For A Different Use
Whatever purpose your business property has had until now may not be lucrative anymore. Residential areas may become industrial hubs, and the goods and services people want the most from that area will change accordingly. Similarly, you should also adapt your property’s usage to these demands.
Pay attention to the type of area your property’s neighborhood is becoming. If it seems like the shift in the area’s specialization is there to stay, make preparations to change your property’s usage accordingly. If your property was zoned for a specific purpose, consult your local officials to get zoning variance so you can retool the property.
Real estate is one of the heftiest things to invest in. However, by improving your property value, you can make it more worth the attention. As a result, the property will give you more profit should you choose to sell it.
