If a person inherits a Commercial property through a WILL and sells it after 1 year are you taxed on the money? What is the tax rate if yes? I know that if you own a house and sell it you are taxed on that money unless you buy another house. Does that hold true for commercial property and property inherited through a will?

Could Student Accommodation be the Answer for Commercial Property Investors?
July 3rd, 2010The global credit crisis continues to affect investment into the commercial properties sector. Commercial property returns over the last twelve month period are looking to be close to the worst twelve month real return on record which occurred in 1974. RICS are predicting that over the next two years things are going to get even worse with the decline in capital values far outstripping the slumps of the 70’s and 90’s.
Investors are pulling out of commercial property fast and in doing so are leaving a very much tenant driven market behind. These are unstable economic times and tenants are looking to landlords to help them out with their commercial property lease agreements. As a result landlords are offering better value inducements, incentives, lettings agreements and rents than ever before in order to ensure their buildings do not become empty.
Despite the huge downturn in commercial property investment there are still some areas within the commercial real estate sector that are deemed viable investments. Student accommodation investors are still hoping for a successful new year and are counting on the fact that in times of recession many people put off entering an uninviting job market that is often only looking for experienced employees and look instead to improve their long-term professional prospects through training, qualifications and academic achievement. This combined with the fact that there is a shortfall in modern halls of residence and you get a potentially great investment formula in spite of the recession. Many commercial buildings are emptying fast, already standing vacant or are nowhere near full occupancy however, this formula is likely to mean that any commercial property investment into student accommodation is likely to see almost full occupancy even if some of the students drop out, which inevitably happens every year with a small percentage.
M25 Commercial Property Lettings Market Goes Against Norm
June 27th, 2010Despite the continuous decline in the UK economic climate the M25 office market enjoyed an increase in commercial property lettings for the last quarter of 2008, according to Knight Frank’s latest report. Commercial properties lettings increased by 10% in the third quarter for the M25 region and 9% in the M3 corridor. However, the M4 market experienced a decline in their final quarter, and was 13% down from their previous quarter’s figures.The credit crunch has effectively turned the commercial property lettings business into a buyer led market, therefore this upturn is a welcome surprise for commercial property owners in the M25 region. Availability and supply of commercial property offices within these areas has decreased over the last six years therefore landlords are not experiencing the same pressures as other commercial property owners who are operating in these increasingly buyer led markets. There are still areas within the M25 region where oversupply is prominent however, and towns such as Bracknell where availability of retail commercial property is high are likely to experience the same downturns and economic pressures as the rest of the UKLandlords throughout the UK are having to provide increasing incentives, inducements and discounted rental rates in order to survive the current downturn in commercial property sales. Things are unlikely to improve over the next year and a half and the economic situation is likely to put further pressure on landlords and commercial property owners with tenants likely to see further offers available to them over this time period. Overall throughout the UK the office take-up market has declined with areas such as Bristol seeing new commercial property lettings figures fall to below their five year average. The London areas worst affected by the office lettings downturn are those where businesses operating within the financial services and hedge fund industries are especially prominent. The high profitability of these two sectors over recent years meant that lettings were more location than rent led, with businesses happy to pay over the odds for the right location. However, the increasing pressures that these industry areas are now experiencing means that many offices in prominent financial areas throughout London are being left either vacant or commercial property landlords have provided decreased rent rates and further incentives in order to keep their buildings occupancy rates up.

I need answers that speak towards women and minorities seeking loans to acquire commercial property.
