The practice of getting commercial real estate sold in a timely fashion for market value requires a different skill set from residential real estate and it requires different tools. The two most important of which are those that help the seller assess the value of the asset and those that provide exposure to a broader audience than a local MLS or national exposure on a website that is known for residential properties. Waiting for a commercial buyer to find you on Zillow or Realtor.com is futile and a waste of everyone’s time. As a seller you want your asset to have exposure on sites that are designed for commercial brokers and that export to commercial investors. We have membership on those commercial sites and place all of our commercial listings on them.
Working with Cygnus you will gain access to the full commercial market inventory in all asset classes. The information is detailed and valuable. We will help you analyze properties in which you may have an interest using real time data gleaned from all over the state as well as in the specific county in which you are seeking to purchase. In terms of financing a deal, we have contacts with some of the most competitive lenders in the state and a working knowledge of the various commercial loan products and their guidelines, making us well qualified to refer you to an appropriate lender.
