4 Reasons to Lease a Commercial Property in 2023

Have you thought about leasing a property for your small business once or twice before, but you aren’t sure if it’s the right move for your business? It’s essential to have clarity around these types of decisions because the growth and success of your business can be positively or negatively effected depending on your choice. In this post, you’ll find 4 reasons why some tenants decide to lease a commercial space, and how to get started with the leasing process when you are ready to do so.

Upfront Cost of Leasing is Less Expensive than Owning

Leasing a commercial property requires less of an upfront investment compared to purchasing a property outright. This can help small businesses conserve their cash flow and reinvest it into other aspects of their future or existing business. Leasing a commercial property typically requires a minimal capital outlay, which can be a significant advantage for businesses that want to preserve their working capital for other purposes.

Access to Prime Locations

Imagine purchasing a property and finding out months afterwards the that the traffic flow 6 months out of the year are reduced by 40%. The effect that that this could have on your business year over year could be detrimental.

Leasing a property lowers this risk. You are able to learn about the property prior to leasing by asking the property manager any questions you may have. You can tour the property at various times a day to confirm that you are making the right investment for the growth of your business. Leasing a commercial property in a prime location can provide access to high-traffic areas. This can help businesses attract more customers and drive sales.

Tax Benefits

Businesses that lease commercial property can typically deduct their lease payments as a business expense.

Easier to Expand or Downsize

Leasing a commercial property can provide businesses with the flexibility to easily expand or downsize their space as their needs change over time. This can be a significant advantage for businesses that experience rapid growth or need to adjust their operations due to changing market conditions.
