As a subsidiary of an historic firm with a globally recognized name, Sotheby’s International Realty (SIR) joined a rich tradition when it was created in 1976 as a wholly owned subsidiary of the main company. SIR was conceived as a natural extension of Sotheby’s portfolio of auction services.

The founder of Sotheby’s, Samuel Baker, held the company’s first sale — a book auction – on March 11, 1744. During the intervening 232 years, the company evolved from its role as a book seller to the recognized international leader in auctions of fine and decorative arts, furniture and collectibles.

Last Monday I was on the phone with a beginning apartment investors. She said she really wanted some type of shortcut or tool to help her find and purchase a great apartment property – one that would be right FOR HER.

We all have different ideas on what a good deal is, don’t we?

This is true at all different levels of investment. What may be a great deal for some, may be a bad deal for the next person. It really comes down to the fact that we all need great profits from a property that is right FOR YOU!

When looking for commercial real estate for lease, one of the most important considerations is to determine the amount of space that your operations will need. An office space calculator can help you decide on the floor space you need based on the amount of staff you have and the type of layout you’re looking for. However, once you’ve got the magic number – there’s still plenty to understand when it comes to leasing office space.

Are you sincerely interested in being a success as an apartment investor?

Most would probably say “YES” to this.

But how many actually sit down and plan this out and work on this BEFORE they go off half-cocked into the marketplace??

Not that many. The number gets very small at this point.

A commercial property is leased or rented by a business for carrying on its normal business operations in that property. It helps in the lessee’s preservation of working capital and avoids heavy expenditures in purchasing properties or even other infrastructure. Simply put, this aims at minimum investment for maximum output and profit.

Companies will have to bear the cost of owning a property as a capital allowance, if it goes purchasing one instead of leasing it. Businesses leasing a property can easily deduct the lease amount from the net profits and have tax advantage. With a little interest going to the lessor from the lessee and an initial deposit, the option of leasing a commercial property holds more advantages.
