- 'Scarcity' with a low commercial facility ratio of 8.25%, and 'Stability' securing residential/office demand
- Interior support funds and rent-free support for tenants in some units, recruiting owners/tenants for those units
As the housing market, including apartments and officetels, freezes due to continued government real estate regulations, interest in commercial facilities, a representative type of income-generating real estate, is increasing even more. Investors expect not only steady monthly rental income but also asset value appreciation, leading to a rise in contracts among not only retirees but also younger people in their 30s and 40s recently.
However, as the number of investors increases, supply is also surging rapidly, making careful selection essential. If you invest in uniform commercial facilities, you can only expect the same returns as others. In this regard, experts recommend first checking the commercial facility ratio when evaluating commercial properties.
If the commercial facility ratio is high, the number of competing commercial facilities increases, leading to higher vacancy rates and difficulty in guaranteeing investment stability. On the other hand, if the commercial facility ratio is low, it is possible to secure stable demand based on scarcity.
An industry insider said, “As market uncertainty grows due to government regulations, the importance of careful selection in commercial facility investment is emphasized. At times like this, if you thoroughly consider the commercial facility ratio, hinterland demand, price, and support benefits, you can achieve a stable investment without vacancy concerns.”
