On the REB Business Empowerment Showcase, Liam Garman is joined by commercial buyer’s agent Chris Huxter to discuss why recent budget changes have renewed interest in commercial assets and what investors need to know before making the switch.

Huxter explains why commercial property has largely escaped the proposed changes affecting residential investors, driving a noticeable increase in inquiries from investors looking to diversify their portfolios.

The pair also explore why industrial property continues to outperform, the risks behind chasing high yields, and the due diligence investors often overlook when buying commercial assets.

The conversation covers the importance of understanding leases, tenant quality, and specialist property management, with Huxter outlining the common mistakes that can turn a seemingly attractive commercial investment into a costly one.
