The Due Diligence Handbook for Commercial Real Estate: A Proven System to Save Time, Money, Headaches and Create Value When Buying Commercial Real Estate
Summary
There’s a HUGE problem in the commercial real estate business that nobody is talking about - DUE DILIGENCE. Investors are leaving big money on the table by not learning these essential principles. Most investors, real estate brokers, and commercial real estate professionals barely scratch the surface conducting their due diligence. Mainly because "they don't know what they don't know". I’ve spent more than 30 years helping investors buy and sell more than 9 million square feet of properties and witnessed the practices of professional and small investors. It wasn’t until I became an acquisition executive and learned some humiliating and expensive lessons that “I didn’t know what I didn’t know”. This is a number one best seller in commercial real estate books on Amazon. It is an easy-to-follow, proven step-by-step system that investors and real estate professionals use regularly as they’re conducting due diligence. It will help you make informed, intelligent decisions when deciding whether to buy or NOT to buy. Adhering to a proven system allows you to conduct due diligence faster, easier, more efficiently, and you’re less likely to miss something. Here are just a few of the lessons you’ll learn: Negotiating the purchase and sale agreement and what you MUST include in order to maximize your opportunities to negotiate further with the seller. (Super important to know.) Reviewing the leases. Not knowing what provisions to watch for could cost you dearly once you own it. (Don't leave it all to chance to work out!) Uncovering hidden problems and issues. (Sellers will NOT disclose these, so you need to know where to look for them. They will not hand you a list of problems about the property.)

The How to Add Value Handbook for Commercial Real Estate
Summary
From the author of a number one best seller of commercial real estate books on Amazon, The Due Diligence Handbook for Commercial Real Estate. Quit running your investment property under the influence of "hopeium"; that delusional state under which you believe everything will work out fine without putting forth any effort or thought into creating value with it. That's the way most investors approach their investment property. Without a strategy for increasing value with your property's management plan is just taking the "lottery" approach. The fundamentals remain the same for the most part, when it comes to adding value and leasing. This information can be used across the various genres of commercial real estate investments, whether it's office and industrial, retail, or multi-family residential properties. I comment from time to time throughout the book on the different angles or strategies you may want to consider for the different property types, which I have obtained from my own background and experience of 30+ years in the commercial real estate industry - or from those I know to be the best at their particular specialty. In this audiobook you will learn: How to determine the best way to price the rental rate for your investment property to get it leased at the highest value How to structure your lease rate and terms to create the most value for your investment property How to incentivize tenants to get your property leased in a down or over crowded market Strategies and tips to create more value Essential analysis forms, proposal and lease form samples, tenant application, and other forms By learning and implementing these essential value-enhancing principles you can easily increase your property's cash flow exponentially. Every day you wait is another day of flushing more money down the drain. Buy it today and start generating more income, instead of hoping it all will work out. You will look back and consider it as one of your best real estate investments.

The Residential Agent's Handbook for Commercial Real Estate
Summary
Create another revenue stream from your current client base and attract new clients by helping them with their commercial real estate needs. The biggest trend in the commercial real estate brokerage business in the past decade is the number of residential agents involved with commercial transactions. It used to be very rare for residential agents to participate in a commercial lease or sale, but today, it is more common and acceptable to consumers and the commercial real estate industry. This is due to several factors: more internet resources available for residential agents to learn about commercial transactions; more digital platforms for residential agents to advertise their properties for sale or lease; and more flexible residential brokerage companies. If you have ever thought of getting involved with commercial transactions but were hesitant because it seemed too difficult, this audiobook will dispel those self-imposed limitations and put you on the fast track to earning more with commercial transactions.
