Commercial real estate properties derive profit from their renters, so it is the goal of owners and managers to fill every vacant space as soon as possible. However, before you can find trustworthy, quality tenants to rent your venue, you must first draw their attention. The guide below lists tips for enticing businesses to your area.

How to Get Your Commercial Vacancy Filled

1. Know Your Market

Doing market research can help to make your listing more attractive to potential tenants. For instance, if you’re leasing office space to businesses, having high-speed internet options and other tech features can make your location more desirable. If your commercial tenants will be hosting clients and your building has room for a meeting space, consider outfitting it with sleek, upgraded furniture and making this a shared amenity for all your renters.

2. Promote Surrounding Amenities

Aside from advertising your property’s features, highlight the surrounding amenities. For instance, being located in a busy shopping center is desirable for retail stores as this can increase foot traffic to their shop. Nearby coffee shops and parking lots with security cameras are other local amenities that will make your commercial real estate opportunity appeal to business owners. 

3. Increase Listing Visibility

A leasing sign is not enough to attract potential tenants to your business. Brokers should be posting information about their commercial real estate opening across several websites as many tenants and agents are doing their research online. An online presence also reaches a wider audience, as a listing can be shared and passed around through social media.
