I spent hours with Alex Hormozi while he talked business with Steven Bartlett, and it cost me nothing.

Podcasts let you be the fly on the wall in conversations you would never get a seat at otherwise. Conversations around a dinner table with people who have already built what you want to build.

Previous generations had to pay for access, or never got it at all. We can press play and learn from the best operators in the world for free.

That is a massive advantage. The only question is whether you use it. Whatever you want to build, whether it’s a business or a commercial property portfolio, someone who has done it is already talking about it. Go and listen.

That sign has been out the front for months. It’s not the market. It’s you.

Nobody wants to run their business out of a building that looks abandoned.

You’re asking a tenant to put their name, their staff and their customers into your property. If you won’t invest a few hundred bucks in paint and signage, why would they trust you with their business?

Crappy sign. Tired frontage. A DIY “for lease” banner and a phone number nobody answers. That’s not marketing. That’s a vacancy notice.

Fix the presentation. Hand it to a reputable agent who actually knows how to lease commercial property. Or keep that sign out the front forever and keep paying the holding costs.

Your choice. The vacancy is not going to fix itself.

Agree or disagree? Should landlords spend money on presentation before leasing? Tell us below 👇🏽

Rob is on track for $400,000 in capital gain on his first commercial purchase, and it only cost $800,000.

Mane Commercial | Commercial Property Experts client Rob bought an office building on a main road, with tenancies upstairs and downstairs. The kicker is the location. It’s a super low vacancy area, and nothing had been available to rent there for at least a year when he bought.

That’s the kind of demand that lets the numbers work in your favour.

Rob has since sold his residential properties to go all in on commercial. His reasoning: no more dealing with tenants who may not look after the place, and he thinks commercial gives a better return. He now holds two industrial properties plus the office, and he’s engaged us again to find his next one for his self managed super fund.

If your landlord sells, you could lose a $500,000 fit out.

Dentists and doctors spend $300K to $600K fitting out a practice, then lease it from someone else.

If that owner wants to move in, or sells with vacant possession, you walk away from the lot and pay for a new fit out in someone else’s building.

The smarter play: buy the property in your self-managed super fund. Your trading business pays rent to the fund, so you get:

• Long-term security in your location
• Rent that’s a tax deductible expense for your business
• No more funding a fit out in a building you can’t control

Your business stays put and your super owns the asset.

A $725,000 buy and hold commercial property paying you around $40,000 a year net.

Here’s the snapshot:

Purchase price: $725,000
Net rent to the owner: around $40,000 a year
Precinct vacancy: 0%
Tenant: national, so the income is secured

That’s roughly a 5.5% net return, in a tight precinct where tenants are hard to come by. A solid, simple place to start if you’re new to commercial.

If you’ve been stuck on residential and want to see how commercial deals like this are found and assessed, I’m breaking down 2 warehouse deals down live.

Most commercial listings never make it past these 3 tests.

This is the filter we use to reject 90% of commercial property listings.

1. Is it rented at or below market rent? That gives us room to increase value over time.

2. Can we buy at or above market yield? That gives us another way to add value through yield compression.

3. Does it align to a clear strategy? Every property in your portfolio needs to serve a purpose, and every investment should line up with it.

If a deal fails any one of these, we move on.

On Monday 26th Oct at 8pm AEDT, I’ll show you LIVE 2 deals that passed, with the numbers. Comment “WEBINAR” and I’ll send you the link to register your spot.
