First Keller Williams Commercial Listing and Feeling Lost
We just got our first commercial listing today with Keller Williams and I'm feeling a little.. errr... a lot lost! It seems like there isn't a lot of support out there when it comes to commercial listings.

&amp;#x200B;

Does anyone know where the get posted when it's uploaded through the MLS?

Where are some places that you add your listing?

While the residential association does allow commercial listings in the MLS, nearly no one does this because most commercial brokers are not members. Most of the commercial brokerages here market directly to other brokers and/or use CoStar which is very expensive. It's not a great system for information sharing in our market. There are quite a few information silos and it makes it difficult to market commercial properties here. I'd suggest you look at CoStar or at very least LoopNet (which is CoStar lite). If you were here I'd tell you to create some amazing digital brochures and e-mail them out to a list of the top brokers.  Good luck.", "replies": [{"id": "e83hozp", "text": "Perfect!

Maybe 9 months to sell it unless it is leased to Denny\u2019s or ihop. \n\nSomething like that is putting a sign in the window and waiting for the phone to ring, maybe sending out mailers to other restraints in the area. \n\nIf they other store closed, why did it close?

That is different and easy to quantify. Take the yearly profits and multiply by 4. That is the sales price for the business which is independent of the real estate. \n\nWhat about employees debt or anything? \n\nLook into biz buy sell, which is a listing service for selling businesses. This may not be a real estate transaction but a business transaction. This means the balance sheet of the business is more important than the real estate fundamentals. \n\nSince you represent the owner, you need the last three years of operating and loss to get an idea of what the business is worth. If it is losing money for the last three years this may be a real estate only transaction but if the store is cash flowing something then there is some value there.
