Commercial real estate can be used to describe a very wide range of real estate, in fact, it covers everything except your private residence.

Although the words commercial real estate are generally used to mean places like;

• office buildings
• hotels
• shopping malls
• warehouses
• apartment complexes
• land which could be developed for any (or all) of the above

commercial real estate can also be used to describe a single family dwelling which has been bought to be rented out to make a profit.

Types of Commercial Real Estate

So you see, commercial real estate can cover just about any piece of real estate or property . . . except for your private residence, unless you rent out the spare room . . . I wonder whether that would mean that you live in commercial real estate – I suppose that technically it does.

Commercial real estate also covers any type of real estate which has been bought for investment purposes or for the purposes of making money in any way, shape or form.
