The Aurora commercial real estate market incorporates 10,405,176 square feet of office space across 123 buildings.

In Aurora, the coworking segment of the commercial real estate market incorporates about 3,544 square feet. Retail space includes shopping malls, department stores, street retail, or specialty stores dedicated to a narrow range of products.

How do I find a good commercial real estate broker?

Whether or not leasing commercial space is a new experience for you, there are significant benefits to working with a commercial real estate broker . In addition to saving you time and money, an experienced broker will contribute specialist knowledge of the local market , the property type you need representation for, and will handle negotiations on your behalf in your best interest. To start, it is important for you to have a good understanding of what kind of broker you need. For instance, there are differences between a tenant broker and a listing broker . Also important at the start is to have a clear idea of what kind of space (or tenant) you are looking for and what (if any) particular needs and requirements you might have. And, while it is good to get a referral, you should interview several brokers to better gauge who you feel would best represent your interests. CommercialCafe hosts listings from some of the most trusted commercial real estate brokerages in the country. Use the contact form available on each listing page or the contact details for the property representatives to reach out and start your search!

What is the most profitable commercial real estate?
