What We Do

One brokerage for every move

Acquiring, selling, financing, or repositioning commercial real estate β€” it all happens under one roof, with one advisor who knows your whole picture.

πŸ”‘

Buy a Property

Commercial buildings, investment property, and owner-user acquisitions across Northern California β€” plus tenant representation when leasing is the smarter move. Guided from first tour to closing.

Schedule a Consultation
🏷️

Sell a Property

Price it right and sell at the right time, backed by live market data and a free, no-obligation broker opinion of value β€” and if leasing your space nets you more, we'll tell you and fill it with qualified tenants.

🏦

Finance a Property

Purchase loans, refinancing, commercial, SBA, VA, and Islamic-finance options β€” structured so you qualify for the strongest terms.

Get Pre-Approved
πŸ“ˆ

Invest in Real Estate

We target properties with genuine upside β€” assets where NOI can grow through lease-up, repositioning, or better management β€” matched to your goals and risk profile, including off-market opportunities.

Financing

Financing should be part of the deal strategy β€” not an afterthought.

A property's price only tells part of the story. Leverage, debt service, amortization, and required equity can materially change the economics of an investment. Before you write the offer, we analyze the deal and the debt together β€” NOI, cap rate, DSCR, cash-on-cash, SBA eligibility for owner-users, conventional vs. bridge structure.

Financing is arranged through Sim MTG, our affiliated mortgage platform β€” same ownership, same advisor, NMLS #300923 β€” so the real estate and capital sides of your transaction work as one.

Questions, Answered

Frequently asked questions

How much is my commercial property worth?
Your value depends on income, cap rate, location, and condition. We give Bay Area owners a free, no-obligation broker opinion of value using live comparable sales and current market data β€” usually within one business day.
Do you charge for a property or business value analysis?
No. Our broker opinion of value is completely free with no obligation. We'd rather earn your trust first β€” it's how most of our long-term client relationships have started.
What areas do you serve?
We focus on Fremont, Newark, Union City, Hayward, and the wider East Bay, plus Silicon Valley and Sacramento β€” commercial, multifamily, retail, office, industrial, hotels, gas stations, and land.
What is a 1031 exchange and can you help?
A 1031 exchange lets you defer capital-gains tax by reinvesting sale proceeds into another investment property. We guide the full timeline and identify replacement properties so you stay compliant and maximize returns.
Can a first-time buyer qualify for a commercial property?
Yes. We help first-time commercial buyers understand qualifying, down payment, and financing β€” including SBA loans that let you buy your building with as little as 10% down.
What languages does your team speak?
Our team serves clients directly in English, Farsi, Dari, Pashto, Arabic, Urdu, and Spanish β€” and this website can be viewed in more than a dozen languages using the language selector at the top of the page.
