Commercial property
Nuances of commercial lease and sale
Details
Lease
3+ year term, indexation, fit-out holidays, operating expenses (OPEX) separate from the rate.
Sale
Leased commercial is 'income property': priced by yield, not per m².
Status
Non-residential stock, kW capacity, ventilation, fire safety — critical for HoReCa/medical.
Taxes
VAT on commercial lease for legal entities, non-residential property tax — count into TCO.
Commercial property is valued by yield: a 10–12% cap rate is the market benchmark. A 'cafe space' without extraction and power is just a space.
