Frequently Asked Questions

What is a commercial real estate cap rate?

A capitalization rate (cap rate) is generally net operating income divided by property price or value, expressed as a percentage. It is a shorthand for income yield, not a complete measure of return. Cap rates vary by property type, location, tenant credit, lease term, and risk. MalikCRE discusses cap rates in the context of specific assets — without publishing fabricated market averages.

How is commercial property valued?

Commercial property is commonly valued using comparable sales, income capitalization (including cap rates on net operating income), and replacement cost context. The right method depends on property type, tenancy, and available data. Brokers provide market-informed pricing opinions; formal appraisals are performed by licensed appraisers when required.

Should I buy or lease commercial property?

Buying can build equity and control but requires capital, financing, and ownership responsibility. Leasing preserves capital and flexibility but does not build real-estate equity. The better choice depends on balance sheet, hold period, build-out needs, and local inventory. A broker can compare options; tax and accounting advice should come from your CPA or attorney.
