Veteran commerical investor Olly Newland says being buddies with tenants makes it harder to be tough.
Think about commercial property and, odds are, that big industrial warehouses or glittering glass office blocks come to mind.
By its very nature, commercial property doesn’t have the emotions and personal attachments that residential property does.
Yet it is people – and people skills – that are key to a successful commercial investment.
That’s because keeping a commercial property tenanted is critical. Vacancies, and the related lack of cash flow, can be the death knell of a commercial investor.
For this reason, secure, longer term tenancies with good tenants should be the goal of any investor.
And, to achieve that, proactive and effective management of tenants is required.
