Retail Properties For Sale in VA

Retail properties for sale in Virginia attract two kinds of buyers: business owners who want to own the building they operate in, and investors who want income from tenants. Fred's Properties Group represents both, with a focus on Northern Virginia, and also helps owners list and sell retail property.

Types of retail properties for sale

• Shopping centers and strip centers, with several tenants under one owner. See shopping centers for sale in Northern VA.
• Freestanding retail buildings, occupied by one business or leased to a single tenant.
• Mixed-use buildings, with retail on the ground floor and offices or apartments above.
• Specialty properties, such as car dealerships and pharmacies.

Owner-user or investor

If you plan to operate in the building, focus on location, parking, visibility, and whether the size fits your business. If you are buying as an investment, look closely at the tenants, the lease terms, and the property's condition. Our investment opportunities page covers more on that approach.

What to review before you buy

1. Leases and rent roll: who the tenants are, when leases end, and what each pays.
2. Operating expenses: taxes, insurance, and maintenance, and which are passed to tenants.
3. Physical condition: roof, parking lot, and mechanical systems.
4. Zoning and permitted uses: confirm the property supports your plans.
5. Financing: talk to a lender early so you know your budget.
