3 Key Points:

  1. Rather than adding value by renovation, industrial real estate assets focus on providing value through protection and giving owners a place to operate and manufacture freely.
  2. Credit risk of the tenants is one of the risks to look out for so it’s best to analyze the potential buyer’s profile and see if they’re capable of paying their obligations.
  3. Consider the location of the property if it’s convenient for the company to continue its operations.
