Simon is joined by Suzi Carter, a chartered surveyor with over 30 years of experience in commercial property. Suzi shares her transition from the corporate world to becoming a successful residential and commercial investor after joining a Mastermind program. The conversation delves into the differences between commercial and residential property investing, highlighting the unique advantages of commercial real estate, such as longer leases and the ability to add value through creative strategies. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Many individuals with a corporate background may struggle to adapt to the entrepreneurial mindset required for property investment. Gaining the right mindset and knowledge is crucial for success in this field.
Commercial properties are valued based on their income potential, using a multiplier on the rent. This allows investors to add value through strategic actions, such as securing tenants or extending leases, rather than relying solely on extensive refurbishments.
The commercial property market is heavily influenced by supply and demand. Identifying areas with high demand and limited supply can lead to better investment opportunities, even in sectors that may seem less favourable, like retail.
When investing in commercial property, it's essential to consider various exit strategies. This includes potential conversions to residential use or splitting properties into smaller units, which can enhance value and reduce risk.
A significant portion of commercial property deals occur off-market, making it vital to build relationships with commercial agents. Additionally, using pension funds, such as a SAS, can provide tax advantages and facilitate property purchases.

BEST MOMENTS

"I don't think there's anything in any shape or form in the corporate world that prepares you for being an entrepreneur."

"The skill in terms of knowing what kind of property to buy, where to buy it and what to do with it is kind of where the magic lies, really."

"The biggest tip I can give people is that the commercial market more than really any market is about supply and demand."

"If you're using a bit of knowledge and a bit of expertise, you can actually add massive value without spending a lot of money sometimes."

"Start with the end in mind, so work out where you want to get to and why you want to get there."
