Buying vs. Leasing
A business' decision to buy a commercial property is an investment decision. With interest rates at near historic lows, now may be the best time. Owning your own property also offers many benefits. If you choose to have additional tenants in the building, these tenants could potentially pay the mortgage for you, as well as providing a steady cash flow. If you are an entrepreneur, and you buy the property in your name, your business could pay rent to you, the owner. This could potentially generate income for you, without double taxation! Also, each month, you will build equity for yourself, instead of making a landlord rich. If the property value increases, so does the equity. In addition, you will be in complete control of the space, what goes on there, and costs involved. Most tax consequences are positive, and you should learn about and take advantage of these tax situations. You should also consider the short- and long-term future of your business. Space needed, cash on hand, and available credit should be considered when choosing a commercial building or space in which to invest. Finally, you should consider choosing a property that is likely to sell if you need an exit strategy. Pay special attention to location, amenities, and condition.
