How to Find Commercial Real Estate Buyers

Commercial real estate investors acquire a vast array of property types to accomplish their investment goals.  For individuals who are trying to sell their commercial properties, there is really no easy way to do. Finding a commercial real estate buyer takes a great deal of effort on your part to sell your property successfully.


  1. Generate a marketing plan for the property you've decided on. You'll want to consider the type of property, price per square foot, monthly income and the price of the commercial property that you are planning to sell.

  2. Familiarize yourself with all the perks of the property. Doing so will help you better determine the type of buyers who will be interested in the deal. Compare the features of your property against the features of properties found within your local area. Completing this step will assist you in creating your write up.

  3. Complete a listing for your property featuring the perks from the previous step. Post this listing on a commercial real estate classified forum that is highly trafficked by your type of buyer.

  4. Network at local commercial real estate functions such as those held by CoreNET, the Urban Land Institute and NAIOP. All these organizations host events throughout the year that are an excellent opportunity to exchange business cards and get the word out about your property.  

  5. Contract a real estate broker who specializes in the sell of your property type to assist you with your efforts. Look for a broker that is certified by Certified Commercial Investment Institute. These trained professionals have a vast knowledge base that will help you structure your deal to attract buyers.
