In online listing you can list any types of property such as buy commercial land, real estate building, office building, residential land, residential flat/building, etc.

Commercial Real Estate

Commercial property is basically a compilation of four major categories, Retail, Office, Industrial and Multifamily. Various kinds of properties come under these categories such as, office, medical store, retail shop and even a rented building. But in short any property that generates profit out of its use is a commercial property. So, any landlord that gives his property on rent that also falls under the commercial property.

Every businessman wants to own a commercial property for the expansion of his business. But to arrange a commercial property in India is not so easy and especially during the time when US is going under the recession and Europe is loaded with the highly over leveraged debt. Whether it is Indian investor or the foreign investor everyone is wary because of the unambiguous government policies and lack of transparency in the real estate sector.

Twocircles.net reports that Real Estate sector has not yet recovered completely from the impact of the Recession 2008-09, whereas it has again undergone a slowdown due to high interest rates and prohibitive property prices. The RBI has also hiked the housing loan interest rates. So, most of the property buyers have postponed their plans to buy the new property.

Due to high property valuation, Foreign Direct investment (FDI) has also slump down to 2.97 percent from Rs.121, 000 crore in 2010-2011. All the major banks have shut their doors for this industry. The slowdown in the FDI is really an issue of serious concern for the commercial real estate market.

According to the report of Economic Times, Real Estate sector, instead of 15 percent growth, will not exceed more than 10 percent in the coming years. The property rates are so high and even the taxes on the construction is so high that government really needs to think over the prices otherwise this sector can really face troubles in the coming years. However, if you want to buy a commercial property then there are some experts like CCIM (certified commercial investment members) who can assist you in acknowledging the market position so that you could arrange the best property at most equitable prices.

Before buying commercial property you need to consult with any real estate agent because these agents are well capable to consult you and review the property for you, they have good knowledge about commercial real estate.
