Industrial commercial real estate

Define size, clear height, power, loading, yard, and location needs; tour comparable buildings; then negotiate rent, term, free rent, tenant improvements, and operating expense structure in an LOI before a lease. A tenant representative can survey the market and negotiate on your behalf. MalikCRE provides industrial leasing and tenant representation in Southern California markets we serve.

Buying can build equity and control but requires capital, financing, and ownership responsibility. Leasing preserves capital and flexibility but does not build real-estate equity. The better choice depends on balance sheet, hold period, build-out needs, and local inventory. A broker can compare options; tax and accounting advice should come from your CPA or attorney.

Tenant representation means the broker advocates for the tenant — surveying space, comparing economics, and negotiating lease terms — rather than representing the landlord on that assignment. Fees are often paid by the landlord per market custom, but engagement terms should be confirmed in writing. MalikCRE offers tenant representation for industrial, office, retail, and medical users in Southern California.
