An IVY commercial real estate broker is often an investor and advisor. Here are some case studies of commercial properties the IVY commercial REALTORS® have sold, acquired, or leased on behalf of sellers, buyers, landlords, and tenants.
Representing Sellers:
SOLD – Manufacturing facility, R&D use, San Jose:
Full asking price, multiple offers
$150,000 non refundable deposit upon contract execution
Sold the property. We handled the same building twice.
Two years later, the buyer hired us to sale the building because he likes our marketing platform
On behalf of a seller, we sold two industrial properties $100K over asking price, and traded them into 5 properties through a 1031 Exchange. Within a tight time frame, critical for a strict IRS timeline, we developed a winning strategy and delivered for the client’s deferred capital gains taxes using 1031 Exchange. BTW, the client was so impressed with our service and knowledge, they hired us in the first meeting AND with an upfront retainer fee, which is very rare in the industry.
We saved a buyer $700,000 below appraised value, by structuring the deal with a tax donation component which benefited both buyer and seller. In fact, the property was not even listed on the market, we found this industrial property through our own research and network. As with all our clients, we walked them through the buying process with the Board of Directors and executives, from beginning to the end. The client was so pleased with our service that they hired us to continuously represent them as their landlord. We fully leased out all rental property units within a short time.
For our tenant client, an expanding Silicon Valley public company in the high tech industry (robotics, AI, software, hardware), we quickly found a 100,000 square feet office building as their corporate headquarters, which included their R&D, warehouse, and lab spaces.
We saved this client 35% in base rent and operating expenses by structuring their sub-lease. We also negotiated a favorable term that allowed additional expansion opportunities. We have been working with them over a decade as their trusted local real estate expert.
