Frequently asked questions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial Property Development

The definition of commercial property development is the process of constructing, renovating, and managing properties intended for business use, such as retail stores, offices, warehouses, factories, apartment complexes, or hotels.

Throughout America, you’ll find two primary kinds of properties—residential and commercial. Residential properties are usually single-family homes or dwellings, while commercial properties can be retail stores, doctor’s offices, warehouses, factories, and even apartment complexes or hotels.

Commercial property development involves the construction or renovation of these commercial spaces, complete with the management and ensured profitability of those buildings thereafter.

The costs associated with developing commercial properties can vary wildly due to a number of critical factors. The size, age, scope of development, intended purpose, location, and physical state of a property can all severely affect the ultimate price tag. These factors are less intuitive than they seem. For instance, a 10,000 sq. ft. warehouse may be larger than a retail storefront, but may not be more expensive to develop since it won’t need many of the comfort associated with a shop.

To learn more about how property development costs are estimated, contact Red Rock Realty Group today.
