Before you jump into a commercial real estate deal, you want to get a lay of the land first. This means considering and examining the general income levels in the area, how high or low unemployment rates are, and looking at the hiring practices of employers within the vicinity of where you intend to invest. Think about what locations are near where you are thinking of buying. Hot spots are usually around places like hospitals or universities because the surrounding neighborhood is going to be more lively and open with jobs available.
