Yields, rates, and due diligence: What investors need to know about commercial property

Commercial property is drawing more interest as residential options narrow, but higher yields require sharper due diligence. Here is what investors should know.

On The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant is joined by Steve Palise, founder and director of Palise Property, to examine why commercial property is attracting growing investor attention.

The pair discuss the appeal of commercial yields, particularly in the sub-$1.5 million market, where competition is increasing as more investors move into the asset class.

Palise explains how rental growth and cap rate compression can drive commercial property values higher, while highlighting the importance of understanding leases, outgoings, and the quality of the underlying asset.

The conversation also explores the risks of commercial investing, from limited market data to choosing the right buyer's agent, and why investors need to do their homework before chasing higher yields.
