So you want to take your business to the next level, and it’s time to find a new building to operate your business out of, but you have no idea where to start. Finding successful commercial real estate services can be a daunting experience if you don’t have a broker you can trust, or if your broker has limited knowledge of their playing field. At Stance Commercial Real Estate, the services we provide expand across a number of industries. Additionally, as business owners local to Riverside and the Inland Empire, Joe and Heidi Stance not only know their market, they are also personally invested in the communities they serve.
No Challenge Is Too Great
Our partners and clients have encountered nearly every challenge in the book. Every client has their own list of specifications when it comes to finding a space. Brandy T., one of our long-term clients, knows all too well how difficult it can be to find the perfect location. Brandy’s business, AxXis Corporation, is a precision machine shop that manufactures custom builds for large industries such as aerospace and gas companies. He not only needed a warehouse space large enough to expand into, he also needed a building that provided the power to run their machines, as well as a parking lot with at least 50 spots to accommodate employees and customers. By partnering with Joe, the hunt for an ideal location became much more feasible.
Not many warehouses offered the power Brandy needed. However, Joe found the right place at just the right time. While touring a potential building, Joe was notified that a new property had just been made available on the market. Using his vast network and connections, Joe was able to arrange right then and there for Brandy to tour the new property. Not only was the building the right fit for Brandy’s expanding company, it also cost less to purchase the new property than continue what he was paying in rent for his previous lease.
Commercial Real Estate Services Beyond Leasing and Buying
Commercial Real Estate services must go beyond simply buying, leasing or investing properties. A good broker has to know the market and have the connections to navigate the market as it evolves and shifts. Take for example the dilemma of adhering to the specific requirements of clients while working with an often limited budget.
In 2017, Stance CRE clients Rick and Monica P. of KGEL Steel Inc., were expanding their business and in need of a new building. They specifically needed a location with plenty of space, but under a budget not typical of such large warehouses. Utilizing his network of connections, Joe found a building that fit their needs while remaining within budget.
Networking is a behind-the-scenes effort, and not all brokers make that effort. Joe and Heidi Stance see making new connections as more than a business strategy. They see networking as a way to expand their community and grow relationships. Time and time again, it is their dedication to these relationships that has led them to successfully help their clients find ideal properties.
Utilizing Strategy and Critical Thinking
Another commercial real estate service that is less obvious, is finding and creating a database of favorable tenants. What most clients may not know, is the benefit of finding a space that has room for tenants. More so, most clients wouldn’t know how to find tenants, even if they had the room for them. That is where Joe’s expertise comes into play.
It is recommended that business owners looking to lease a new building should explore the purchasing option. If they are able to purchase, it is likely they will find a location with added space available for tenants. Stance client, Blaine of Living Water Hospice, now has numerous retail spaces for lease. Originally, he wasn’t looking for a space that had excess room. After realizing he was able to purchase, Joe found a location that offered retail spaces he could lease out or expand into over time. Joe has now committed to using his time and database to find Blaine favorable tenants that can lease those spaces. This added service takes a tremendous weight off of clients and has great long term benefits.
The challenges that arise with finding commercial real estate properties are not uncommon. Some commercial real estate industries come with more challenges than others. However, there is no industry that Stance Commercial Real Estate hasn’t taken a vow to serve.
