Commercial Warehouse for Lease - A Broker's Definition
Go to Article
Posted by Eric Hughes, on May 22, 2011 and Updated on November 7, 2019
Article Synopsis

What is commercial warehouse for lease? What is commercial warehouse for rent? They are the same and they are different. “Commercial” is just a description of the property to indicate an exclusion of residential uses. “For rent” and “for lease” while basically synonymous, “lease” actually refers to a contractual agreement between a tenant and landlord. “Warehouse” has many meanings in the sense that a “warehouse” can be used for many purposes and in many manners. Here are few examples of Commercial Warehouse for Lease:
- Distribution Warehouse: Typically dock high warehouse with fire protection sprinkler systems and warehouse clear heights over 24’. The high clear is to accommodate pallet racking. Users of distribution space normally require minimal office finish.
- Flex Warehouse: With a higher percentage of office finish, Flex Space is combination of warehouse and office finish, sometimes 50% of each. Warehouse Renters of this space can be high tech, assembly and light manufacturers.
- Manufacturing Industrial Warehouse: For me, the word industrial conveys images of heavy cranes and steel being moved, modified and shipped. Manufacturing Warehouses often are crane served with overhead bridge cranes or jib-cranes. The buildings are chiefly made of metal and require heavy power.
These are just a few examples.

Warehouse for Lease - Changing of the tide
Go to Article
Posted by Eric Hughes, on May 17, 2011 and Updated on August 11, 2019
Article Synopsis

Build, build, build. Consume, consume, consume. Not anymore. Welcome to the new norm of commercial real estate. Over the last two decades, before the oil crash, banks were lending money on a signature and good will. As a result developers, eager to make a fee, put up millions of square feet of bulk distribution space around the country. Now that market is subject to downsizing, reducing, consolidating and liquidating. In many healthy markets like Houston, Dallas and Atlanta there is still a glut of distribution space for lease, despite the relative thriving commercial market. In other large cities, a tenant can almost name its price on bulk space for lease.

Our current slow to very slow trot to recovery is not enough to push lenders off their pedestals. Hopefully when things do begin to pick up pace, the shortage of new product as a result of stringent lending practices will force rental rates to new highs.

Go to Article
Posted by Eric Hughes, on May 17, 2011 and Updated on August 11, 2019
Article Synopsis

No Longer Available. This week’s pick is an older metal warehouse building for sale in near East Houston.

However, this property is centerally located, has dock high loading and has a fire protection sprinkler system. The best part is that the price on this 62,814 SF building has been reduced from $1.25mm to $700k. The warehouse sits on 1.6 acres and has 5 dock high loading doors and 2 grade level doors.

If you need a 50,000 or 60,000 SF warehouse then this may be worth considering. The building is listed with Collier’s.

Buildings For Sale - Commercial property by type
Go to Article
Posted by Eric Hughes, on May 14, 2011 and Updated on August 18, 2019
Article Synopsis

When looking at buildings for sale, it is important that the business owner understand the types of commercial property for sale in the market.

Warehouse or Industrial: These are typically for distribution or manufacturing and can be constructed of metal or masonry materials. Crane served manufacturing warehouses are typically metal buildings. Warehouse can be grade level, semi-dock (2’ high) or dock level (4’ high).

Flex Buildings: Flex space is a hybrid of office and light industrial warehouse/tech space. This property type caters to laboratories, computer and technical companies and instrument or data-logging industries.

Office Property: Self explanatory except that single story business parks often provide very nice office space for less rent than the typical multi-story office building.

Retail: Again, self explanatory. Retail options come in many shapes and sizes. The latest trend is lifestyle center with outdoor walkways and park settings versus the old Mall style projects.

These are a few very basic types of property to consider when looking at buildings for sale.

Commercial Buildings for sale - A shrinking market? How is that?
Go to Article
Posted by Eric Hughes, on May 13, 2011 and Updated on October 21, 2021
Article Synopsis

Construction of commercial buildings has decreased approximately 28% across the board for industrial, retail and office properties (as reported by Costar,Inc.). This is especially true for speculative warehouse and office buildings for sale by a developer. For the business owner looking to buy a warehouse building or office for his/her operations, this decrease may drive up pricing on existing buildings and reduce availability. I have clients tell me quite often that in this economy there must be a glut of buildings for sale. While that may be accurate in areas of the country with higher than average unemployment and/or a shrinking population, it is quite the opposite in booming cities like Houston, Austin, Dallas, Atlanta, Provo and Phoenix.

While a shortage of funds from lenders for speculative development is a nationwide issue, availability of buildings for sale fluctuates dramatically from city to city. Lender rules for loan approval do not take into account the feasibility of project based on an individual city’s needs and inventory. A bad economy by default forces a migration of people to other, more prosperous areas of the country looking for jobs. This drives up demand in those areas and changes the commercial real estate picture. Tie this surge in demand to a national policy of restrictive lending and you have a shortage of quality buildings for sale.

So, the volume of buildings for sale becomes a relative term and may not correspond to the nationwide economy, especially in a city like Houston, Texas.

With population growth over the last 5 years almost doubling most other US cities, these Texas towns are growing a record paces.

Industrial Warehouse Property with Excess Land or Yard and High Ceilings in Short Supply
Go to Article
Posted by Eric Hughes, on April 8, 2011 and Updated on August 11, 2019
Article Synopsis

Houston is seeing a surge in leasing and sales of quality industrial freestanding properties with excess yard or land. We have seen an increased demand for buildings with fenced and surfaced yard area to facilitate heavy equipment and tractor trailer storage. Slowly those warehouse properties have been leased or sold and most of the existing product is burdened with some incurable physical obsolescence (i.e. low ceilings in the warehouse, limited yard area and/or truck courts).

Also, numerous requirements for 28’ + clear warehouses have been floating around with no existing buildings around to fill the need. If you require a freestanding building with extra land AND high clear heights…Good luck, get ready to build new.

Rate Outlook for Small Business loans to purchase facilities

The current rates for small business have been holding steady over the last several weeks. Noting the pressures facing our global and national economies will put a bit more pressure on the upside in the near term. Banks remain cautiously optimistic toward lending practices with a heavy appetite for A credits and continued reduced demand for weaker credits. Borrowers can typically fix their interest for 5 years without having to pay a huge premium due to the interest uncertainty over the long haul. In summary, the current rate environment remains positive for small business loans to purchasing facilities. By Mike Allen - Allen Capital Funding 832.661.6453
