Over the past decade, changes in consumer habits along with broader economic factors have shaped new growth and evolution across Toronto’s commercial real estate market.

Perhaps most notably, the continued rise of online commerce has created an elevated need for industrial infrastructure across the GTA – with warehouses, distribution centres, assembly plants, and other properties in higher demand than ever. As a result of this increased demand, industrial investors are seeing healthy returns on the sale of their properties. In some areas, the market value of industrial properties has nearly quadrupled in recent years. 

Reflective of commercial real estate as a whole, industrial properties are specialized in nature. Despite this rising demand, maximizing the ROI of your industrial property sale will require reaching the right buyer audience. Therefore, a targeted, data-driven marketing plan is the most effective way to advertise your property in a way that attracts high-quality offers.

Highest and Best-Use Analysis

Our firm’s approach to selling commercial real estate is strategic and analytical. Like any of our listings, determining how to most effectively market your industrial property begins with establishing its highest and best use. 

A highest and best-use analysis allows us to uncover your property’s full potential and highlight key areas of opportunity to potential buyers. Rather than outsource this important process, our in-depth analyses are performed in-house at no additional cost to our clients. We do our due diligence to determine which opportunities are legally permissible, physically possible, maximally productive, and financially feasible for potential buyers and investors.

Once we ascertain the highest and best use for your industrial property, our team can create a clear framework for your sale.
