Frequently Asked Questions About Office Buildings (and a Few You Didn't Know to Ask)

Office building Q&A audio on commercial real estate.

When you're thinking about investing in office buildings, there are questions you know to ask—and then there are the ones you might not even think of until it's too late.

In this audio lesson, Doc dives deep into both. He answers the most common questions commercial real estate investors have about office buildings, as well as the lesser-known (but just as critical) issues that pop up along the way.

What You’ll Learn in This Audio

Here are just a few of the questions Doc tackles in his clear, step-by-step, easy-to-understand format:

  1. What are the local zoning laws and permitted uses?
    Is the building compliant with current codes, parking regulations, and occupancy standards?

  2. What does a commercial broker charge to lease out office space?
    And what should you be budgeting for commissions and leasing fees?

  3. What is a tenant representation broker?
    How do they work, and how can you use one to your advantage?

  4. How should I bill for the NNN (Triple-Net) portion of a lease?
    What’s typical, and what’s smart?

  5. What do “Class A,” “Class B,” and “Class C” buildings really mean?
    And why does it matter to your investment strategy?

  6. Why do office buildings often use Triple-Net leases?
    And how do they stack up financially against other types of commercial properties?

  7. Do Triple-Net leases cover big-ticket items like HVAC?
    Or are you still responsible for replacing expensive systems?

…and more.

This is the kind of insight you don’t usually get unless you’ve been doing deals for years—or you’ve got Doc on speed dial.
