In this episode of The Commercial Property Investor Podcast, we dive into one of the most rewarding aspects of commercial property investment: off-market deals. These are the hidden gems that haven't been publicly advertised, often leading to more lucrative opportunities with less competition. But how do you find them? Today, I explore various strategies for sourcing these deals, reaching out to potential vendors, and navigating the risks involved. Whether you're an experienced investor or just starting out, this episode will provide some actionable insights into securing those off-market properties that can set you apart from the competition.

Key Topics Covered:
What off-market deals are and why they can be so valuable.
Why property owners sell off-market (privacy, urgency, avoiding fees).
Proven strategies for finding off-market deals, including:

Networking with industry professionals.
Running direct mail campaigns.
Utilizing local knowledge and scouting vacant properties.
Approaching properties pre- and post-auction.
Using online research and property databases.
Leveraging social media platforms like LinkedIn and Facebook groups.
Tips on how to approach and communicate with property owners.
Potential challenges and risks of off-market deals, including valuation difficulties and hidden issues.

These strategies have worked for me and countless others, and they can work for you too. Whether you're seeking privacy-focused owners, distressed properties, or simply looking to avoid fierce competition, off-market commercial property deals provide a unique pathway to success in commercial property investment.
