Buying commercial real estate can be overwhelming.  There are a lot more details to consider.

1.   Real Property Report and Compliance -- similar to residential real estate.  We need to know if all the buildings on the land have been built in accordance with city zoning bylaws.

2.   Industrial Use of Building -- what is the new building zoned for?  Does your business fall into that category or do you need to apply for a different application?

3.   Environmental Study -- has one been done already?  Are there issues with the land?  These are very expensive depending on the level of study. The costs can range from $5,000 to $50,000.
