For Owners

What Is My Commercial Property Worth?

Know what your building would sell for before you decide anything.

Find out what your office, retail, industrial, mixed-use or apartment building anywhere in Florida would sell for, before you decide anything about it. A licensed BreakThru Realty agent works the figure from your rent roll and statements, the sales the MLS records and the listings yours would compete with, and walks you through it in writing. It is a broker's opinion of value, not an appraisal, and nothing is listed or announced.

Your first step: Property Value & Disposition Review

Start With a Property Value and Disposition Review

Investors and owner-users price your building three ways: against the competition, against closed sales and on its income. The review shows you all three, where they meet, and the ways to sell that fit your timing and your tax position.

What you receive

  • A broker's opinion of value from closed sales, competing listings and, for an income property, the rent roll and the cap rates buyers are paying
  • The documents buyers and lenders will ask for, and which to prepare before listing
  • Disposition options: open-market sale, confidential sale, sale-leaseback or a 1031 exchange, with the trade-offs
  • The buyer profile for your property type and how we would reach it
  • A written summary of the figures behind the opinion

What happens next

  1. Tell us the address, the property type and how the building is occupied.
  2. A commercial agent pulls the closed sales and the competing listings and prepares the review.
  3. We call within one business day to walk through it.
  4. You decide whether, when and how to sell.

Free and confidential. It is a broker's opinion of value, not an appraisal, and we never publish an estimate for a specific property.

Three Ways the Value Is Worked

A commercial property is valued on its income, against closed sales, and against the competition, and the answer is where the three agree.

  • Income: net operating income from the actual rent roll and operating statements, divided by the capitalization rate buyers are paying for that type, location and tenant quality.
  • Closed sales: what comparable buildings sold for, per square foot or per unit, in the MLS record and the public record.
  • Competition: the listings a buyer would compare yours with today, their asking price per square foot and how long they have sat.
  • For an owner-user building, what a business would pay to own rather than lease the same space.

What Moves the Number Most

Whether the income survives a buyer's check of the leases and the bank statements; how long the leases run and who the tenants are; deferred maintenance and the capital items coming due; and the property tax and insurance a new owner will pay after the sale, which in Florida can be far higher than yours. A review that ignores those produces a price the market will correct later.

What to Send

The address, the building and lot size, the current leases or occupancy, your last two years of income and expenses, any debt that has to be paid off, and your timing. Send what you have; the form on this page asks for the rest. The review and everything you send stay confidential.

What You Get Back

A written opinion of value with the sales and listings behind it, the range a buyer is likely to pay, what would raise it before listing, and how the property would be marketed if you went ahead. No number is published anywhere, and you are under no obligation.

If You Are Not Ready to Sell

Many owners ask two or three years ahead. The review tells you what to fix, which leases to renew or restructure and what the tax picture looks like, so the property is worth more when you do sell. Ask for a sale-leaseback review if your business occupies the building and you want to release capital without moving.

Questions you may be asking

Can the sale be kept confidential?
Yes. Financials go only to buyers who sign a confidentiality agreement, tours are by appointment, and a tenant-occupied building can be marketed without disturbing the tenants. The review sets out the options and the MLS rules that apply.
What does it cost to sell?
The commission is negotiable and agreed in writing in the listing agreement before anything is marketed. Other seller costs usually include title and closing charges and Florida documentary stamp tax on the deed; your closing agent confirms the figures.
I am thinking about a 1031 exchange.
Tell us before you sign anything: the exchange has to be set up before the sale closes. The review covers the timing, and your CPA and a qualified intermediary handle the tax side.
How long will it take?
Longer than a home. Pricing, marketing, a due-diligence period that commonly runs 30 to 60 days and financing all take time. The commercial market pages show how long listings like yours have been on the market today.

Request a Broker Pricing Review

On this page you can tell us: the property address and type, building and lot size, occupancy and the rent roll if it is leased, net operating income if you know it, your timing.

Call or text (786) 914-1017 or email sales@breakthrurealty.com. A licensed BreakThru Realty agent follows up within one business day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the pricing review free?
Yes. It is a broker's opinion of value prepared in the hope of earning the listing if and when you sell. It is not an appraisal, and a lender or a court will require an appraisal from a state-certified appraiser.
Will you publish an estimate for my property?
No. BreakThru Realty does not publish estimates for specific properties. The figure is given to you, in writing, after an agent has reviewed the property.
Do I need to send the rent roll and financials?
For an income property, yes, if you want a figure a buyer will agree with. Without them the review can only be based on the building and comparable sales, and the range will be wider.
How is a commercial cap rate used?
Buyers divide the verified net operating income by the cap rate they require for a property like yours. A lower cap rate means a higher price for the same income. The review shows the cap rates recent buyers have paid for comparable properties.
