Hello Investors,
I`m looking for a little advice as this will be the first Commercial property I`m buying.
I`m going to make an offer on a Business Condo in Calgary. for personal use.
I like the space, and would like to get it, so I`m willing to pay near market value, if i have to.
Property is listed thru a realtor.
I`ve looked at Comps, so I`m reasonably comfortable with my offer price, which will obviousely lower than the ask.
Total Sq ft, including common area is 1,342 sq ft
Actual office area is 1,074 sq ft.
Nice building, well kept, 8 yrs old, just off Mcleod tr.
Asking price 425,000.
Condo fees 650 mo.
I`ll be making an all cash offer.
I`d like to make sure:
1. There are sufficient reserves in the Condo operating account.
2. I`d like to confirm the value. Do i do this after I`ve made the offer, and then back out if the appraisal is not to my liking, or renegotiate a lower price?
3. Should i have the Condo inspected after making the offer, but before purchasing?
4. What is a reasonable deposit to show I`m serious.
5. Any things that i might be missing in this offer scenario?
6. Any reccomended negotiating strategies.
Thanks for any advice offered.
