Commercial property - investment options
As Australia continues to recover from the economic downturn, the beginning of new resource projects and a strong outlook for engineering construction could represent welcome news for anyone considering a commercial investment.
Master Builders Australia anticipates above-trend economic growth for the next two years, indicating now might be a good time to think about investing in commercial real estate.
Recent months have seen modest growth in building approvals, the organisation notes, suggesting that investment in the non-residential building sector could grow by 2.5 per cent in the current financial year and a further eight per cent in 2012-13.
As an agency with a strong presence across Australia, LJH Commercial has an exceptional understanding of local markets and our staff have the knowledge and skills needed to help you make the perfect investment decision.
Retail investment - commercial property worth considering
Retail property is widely considered to have been the least affected by the GFC - and if you are thinking about a commercial property investment, you might find this sector well worth considering.
These types of properties tend to be particularly valued thanks to their lower capital value fluctuation compared with other types of commercial investments - as well as a generally stable income stream.
LJH Commercial franchise owners and staff across Australia have years of experience in the retail markets - and our in-depth knowledge of the trends and opportunities in each region make us a valuable port of call for potential investors.
Buying land as an investment
Buying land as an investment is another avenue to explore when it comes to commercial property. However, land investment differs in a number of respects - navigating site costs, stamp duty and other expenses associated with purchasing and building, for example - which is why it is important to seek out assistance from the experts.
The staff in each of LJH Commercial's local offices have hands-on experience with the land market in their respective region and can help you identify trends and opportunities to help ensure you make an informed decision.
We can help you from everything including land titles and settlement duties, helping to make your transaction as smooth as possible.
Commercial office investments
Commercial office investments are particularly popular in Sydney and Melbourne - where new building is set to get underway early in the decade - and the rest of Australia's capitals and regional centres are expected to follow suit shortly after.
Each regional market offers its own unique challenges and opportunities and the staff at LJH Commercial can help you find the office investment that suits your requirements.
Whether you are looking to invest in existing office space or an exciting new build project, we can help you through every stage of the process and provide valuable support.
