Commercial real estate is one of the most profitable ways to invest your money, particularly if you make a well-timed purchase in an up-and-coming area. However, the price and value of real estate will always be influenced by market conditions, and making a hasty or ill-informed purchase can cost you dearly. Real estate consulting services are a great way to “look before you leap,” and our team at Ferstl Valuation Services is here to ensure that your investment decisions are always backed up with quality market research!
We’ve been offering real estate appraisals in Little Rock since 1967, and Tom and J.T. Ferstl founded the company with a very simple goal: to offer clients reliable, trustworthy, certified real estate appraisals. In addition to appraisal services in Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Oklahoma, we offer expert witness testimony in legal proceedings and real estate consulting services for investors interested in expanding their property portfolios. We have the experience that buyers, sellers, and lenders can rely on, and we’re always a phone call or a mouse click away when you’d like to schedule a consultation. Here are a few things to keep in mind before you consider any new investment in commercial real estate:
Brick-and-mortar operations are on the rise-The 2020 pandemic is in our rearview mirror, and an increasing number of companies are discontinuing work-from-home programs. As businesses begin ordering remote workers back to the office, demand for commercial real estate will continue to increase.
Interest rates keep going up-The Fed keeps raising interest rates, which makes it costlier to borrow money. The upside for well-qualified investors is increasing demand for multifamily rental properties as potential homeowners wait for our economy to improve.
Inflation is still out of control-We’re currently experiencing levels of inflation we haven’t seen since the early 1980s. The Biden administration signed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) into law in August 2022, and it has numerous important implications for property owners. Investing in commercial real estate can be a great way to protect your wealth during inflationary periods, and you’ll also receive a steady cash income from your tenants!
