Long leases have been a big problem for my business I like your way off thinking Great videos 👍

[@Deepfocus0228]

God sent channel🙏.Thankyou James ,you are the best .

[@deelawyer6638]

Thank you so much. Loving your videos. We just bought a commercial property cash, it's almost 2,000 sf and we love it but the service charge worries me. What would you say about commercial freeholds with service charges for communal areas?

[@steveharman8907]

Love this revision of my chosen strategy once I get an investment partner....Commercial definitely...and really enjoyed Rossi lunch and again for dinner tonight...magic mushroom omelette.! I mean the omelette was magic, not the mushrooms.!..Thanks James.!

Commercial dead when everyone works from home?

[@garethg3564]

This was brilliant

[@hassanomar8696]

Great videos.

[@AMF_1]

I have started looking into this the biggest obstacle I have faced is acquiring a mortgage on a commercial property. The majority if lenders want hefty cash deposits, it will be great if you could provide a video explaining the available options and best approach? Thanks

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

There’s loads of conversations about this on my podcasts and on videos on the channel. My top advice is to work on building a profitable business, banks will then support the funding of your commercial property on more favourable terms.

[@AMF_1]

@@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur Thanks for the prompt response, I will start searching. I have been impressed by your content so far !

[@omeramian3773]

Hi James..is it worth purchasing a nursery without any funds in the business account at time of purchase / handover?

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

I’m sorry, I’m not sure I understand what you mean. Can you give a bit more context,

[@richardburke952]

How does the new EPC rules effect the commercial properties? As its hard enough to get a house from a D rating to a C , and the government goal of net zero emissions by 2030 has instigated these new laws.

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

It’s certainly a challenge, I’m learning about this now, just don’t know it upside down yet. When I know more I’ll put it in content.

[@robsweatherchannel]

How about a start-up and you do not have the assests or the businesses that are up and running as of yet? Thanks Rob

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

I wouldn’t buy a warehouse for a start up, I would build the business first and understand that. After running it for 24 months and seeing the profits materialise - I would then action my brain into “warehouse ownership” if it made sense.

[@younginvestor9657]

When you do this HMO scenario how are the utility bills paid by the tenants? I want to do the same thing with the factory units I have as I have an office upper and factory units below but they would share electric etc or do you actually split them entirely with planning, how does it work? Thanks for all the great videos I’ve been binging them!

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

They have check meters in each unit.

[@Suiteplace]

Great video James! I know you're a massive advocate for commercial property - with that in mind and the permitted development rights free for all would you ever turn any of your commercial units into resi? Given residential space has a higher value per sq foot.

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

Never say never, but that’s not what I do. My aim is to run my businesses as the main source of income rather than sell property for a profit. I just like to buy a warehouse and rent it out.

[@zentesiofficesuppliesandst6153]

Amazing, really interesting watch! Looking to purchase my first commercial this year, after renting for the last 4+ years. At the minute I'm paying a premium for an easy out situation (1 months notice, which was unheard of for me!), so could agree more. In terms of added value, do you do anything to the actual infrastructure provided? E.G. Solar, Car Charging, Additional Mezzanine for Sq Ft increase, General Improvements ect.

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

When we buy the freehold a? Yes we do.

[@simonfoxhall8604]

Thanks

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

Thanks Simon!!

[@michaelheyes1023]

brilliant!

[@asadkhalil3387]

James are you able to secure commercial finance if you can't secure a long lease?

[@antonclark]

I’d feel uneasy giving so much financial detail to the agent…

[@graemeh2028]

Good vids. Shame you associate with Mr Leeds.

[@harper07harper]

Hi James What happened to this in the end??

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

To the property? I missed it. So had to look elsewhere!

[@harper07harper]

@@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur Yep.. Ah, shame!

[@RichardArblaster]

Great video, be interesting to see if the landlady changes her mind about selling 😎

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

Cheers Richard

[@ldn876]

I love this video so much❤️❤️❤️. Commercial property is where the real wealth is.

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

Thanks!

[@Mickthemove_]

Congrats on pitching a bespoke deal and getting her to go with it, i presume you could market it for sale at your buy point in 3 years and flip a quick return if it doesn't work out :). As a tenant that has paid over 2 milion in rents since i started out in business this has intrigued me as with the daft valuations of commercial property and the heavy weight deposits required by lenders have always barred entry to actually buying for us. Keep up the good work

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

Thanks Mick. I still pay a million a year ish in rents. So you can’t always buy. I think buying commercial property to flip isn’t wise, I like to buy and hold.

[@paulrogers666]

Hey James, do you use an agent to advertise/ rent the property or do you do it direct? What do you find works?

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

I use Facebook to get tenants, as much as we post on the portals and use commercial agents.

[@b1u3r0ck]

Love the idea of HMO for commercial James. Very inspiring! You have got my head buzzing with ideas now

[@JamesSinclairEntrepreneur]

Go write a plan and implement!

[@Greatermans]
