For Business Owners: Our Site Selection Process

Our structured process is part of our comprehensive real estate services, designed to find the optimal space for your business operations and growth within the Central New Jersey market.

Needs Assessment: We define your operational requirements, growth projections, cultural needs, and financial parameters.
Market Research: We analyze sub-markets within your radius, evaluating demographics, labor pool, competition, co-tenancy, and traffic patterns.
Property Search & Touring: We leverage our network and databases to identify all suitable options, scheduling and guiding productive property tours.

Due Diligence & Closing: We coordinate the review of leases, zoning verification, and property condition assessments to ensure a smooth transition to occupancy.

For Property Owners & Landlords: Our Marketing Approach

Professional Property Marketing: We create high-quality marketing materials, including professional photography, floor plans, drone video, and detailed offering memorandums that articulate the property’s value proposition.
Maximum Exposure: We list the property on the commercial MLS (NJMLS), CoStar, LoopNet, and our proprietary investor database, while conducting targeted outreach to our network of qualified buyers and tenant representatives.
Strategic Pricing & Valuation: We perform a thorough Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) to establish a competitive and defensible asking price or rental rate that aligns with current market conditions.
Buyer & Tenant Qualification: We pre-screen all prospects to verify financial capability and serious intent, protecting your time and ensuring productive negotiations.
Expert Negotiation & Transaction Management: We represent your interests in all negotiations, managing the complex process from letter of intent through due diligence to a successful closing.

Zoning & Use Requirements

Zoning dictates what you can and cannot do with a property and is a critical first step in any commercial transaction. In Monmouth County, municipalities like Englishtown (Borough) have specific zoning ordinances (e.g., zoning codes for Highway Development, Office Professional, or Light Industrial districts) that govern permitted uses, building size, setbacks, parking, and signage.

We help clients navigate:

Permitted Uses by Zone: Confirming your intended business operation is allowed “by right” in a specific zoning district.
Conditional Use or Variance Applications: Assisting with applications and presentations before local Planning or Zoning Boards if a use requires special approval.
Site Plan Approval Process: Guiding you through the municipal approval process for any new construction or significant exterior modifications.
Signage & Parking Regulations: Ensuring your business plan complies with local codes for visibility and customer/staff parking.

Commercial Financing Options

Financing commercial property differs significantly from residential mortgages. We help clients understand the pathways and connect them with commercial lending specialists. Common structures include:

Purchase Financing: Typically requires 20-35% down payment, with loan terms of 5, 10, or 20 years amortized over 20-25 years. Interest rates are often tied to the WSJ Prime or SOFR rate plus a margin.
SBA 504/7(a) Loans: Government-backed programs for owner-occupants that can offer lower down payments (often 10%) and favorable terms.
Commercial Bridge Loans: Short-term financing used for value-add projects or to acquire time-sensitive opportunities.
Portfolio & Cash-Out Refinance Loans: For investors with existing assets seeking to leverage equity for new acquisitions.
