By Ania Stan


When you make the decision to buy a business or commercial premises, you want to ensure you have a comprehensive and accurate picture of what is involved and what it will cost. It is essential to find a reputable commercial property agent in Devon who can help you find the perfect business or property by understanding your budget, needs and the market.

Main points to consider when looking for a commercial property agent in Devon

* Experience

Qualifications are important but experience more so. Your agent should be able to provide examples of past sales which should cover a broad range of properties and businesses, of various sizes in a variety of sectors. There may be other specialist knowledge that is relevant to the business sector, including laws regarding licensing or Government initiatives that may affect your decision to buy or sell. Your agent should be aware of these factors.

* Knowledge of region and locality

Your commercial property agent in Devon should have good, relevant knowledge of the South West including the demographic of your potential customers and who your competition is. If you are going to be living at your business premises or moving to the area, you should know what facilities, schools and amenities are available. Road access is an important factor to consider with other details as it may impact on the success of your business.

* Up to date knowledge of laws, current market and pricing

Your agent should have good knowledge of the type of business you are buying or selling and should keep abreast of news relevant to your business sector. Reputable commercial property agents in Devon should offer a free appraisal of your business and be committed to getting you the best possible price.

* Keeping up with new technology and social media for marketing purposes

There have been rapid advances in technology that have brought new opportunities for marketing a business or property, especially in the mobile technology market and social media. It is even easier to keep clients informed, so a forward thinking agency will be using tools such as text alerts, blue tooth and apps to communicate. Consumers are better equipped to research information these days, so they have a better idea of what they are looking for.

* Open, honest and friendly service

With increased information available there is more transparency. Clients can do their own research and check peer review sites. This means there is a greater requirement for a more open and honest sales approach from commercial property agents. It is important to find an agent you feel comfortable with. Rapport is as important as openness and honesty. The agent should have a manageable caseload so they can be committed to you rather than juggling you with too many other clients.

Before you arrange a meeting with a potential commercial property agent in Devon, it is worth having a good look at their website to get an indication of what sort of company they are. Look for details about individual agents and their company ethos. The site should be up to date, easy to navigate, clear and informative. They should state what methods and social media they will use in marketing and also how they will keep you informed, such as using emails and/or text alerts.
