This week, Caroline Claydon talks to Jerry Alexander, who began in property investment over twenty years ago, and who has since built a reputation as one of the foremost commercial CMO expert, maximising profit in commercial spaces.

Jerry talks candidly about the lessons he's learned during his career, and the strategies and opportunities he sees in the current commercial property market.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

A CMO (Commercial Multiple Occupancy) is a building in which all parties share services, but have their own unit from which to operate their business.

The CMO projects work far better if all occupants pool resources and work together to create a sustainable, efficient space for all involved.

There is no obligation to enter the commercial sector, but there is less competition, and there are huge rewards to be gained. For those already investing in residential, commercial is a marvellous step up.

During periods of uncertainty in business, there is a tendency by tenants, to opt for a more flexible approach to rent. In the wake of COVID and its effects, many are trepidatious about signing long leases when the future of their company may be in doubt.

BEST MOMENTS

'We're much better pooling resources, and it's the same for that type of offer'

'Everybody's contributing but together we can have more'

'I can really affect value and add lots of value, which is going to accelerate the whole thing'

'The industry is really good at making itself opaque'
