Residential vs Commercial Investment

Hi all,

I have, what hopefully is two quick questions.

1.What are the pros and cons of residential property investment?

  1. What are the pros and cons of commercial property investment?

I did a search and couldn’t find anything of relevance to me :frowning:

Thanks for your time.

Kind regards,
Chris

Could you narrow down the parameters of your question(s). Is there a specific area that you are wanting to address first?

I agree with Mark. What are you trying to purchase? Do you have a property in mind. As you know, residential lending looks primarily at the borrower, commercial looks primarily at the property.

Commercial investments can mean more return per unit when dealing with Multi-unit properties.
However commercial loans are more costly than residential & commercial lenders don’t offer 100% programs like in residential.
