Buying Commercial
Investment Property

So, you’re thinking of investing in commercial property? Smart move.
Think of commercial property as the heavyweight champ of property investing. Unlike residential property, commercial real estate typically offers higher rental yields, longer lease terms, and the kind of stability that investors dream of. In fact, commercial properties in Australia often deliver net yields of 5%–8%, compared to the 1%–3% you’d get from residential.
At GATHER, we’re here to guide you through this high-reward investment, so you have clear strategies to help you invest in this market. As Australia’s top buying agency for commercial property, our mission is simple: to equip you with the strategies, insights, and market access to build a stable property investment portfolio.
Why Invest in Commercial Property?
/01
Higher Yield Potential
It’s a fact: commercial property investments consistently outperform residential in terms of rental yields. When it comes to building a reliable income stream, commercial properties truly deliver a higher income return on your investment.
/02
Varied Property Types
Australia’s commercial property market is like a buffet for investors: office spaces, retail units, industrial warehouses – many different varieties. And the best part? Each type brings its own flavour to the table. Office spaces often offer stable, long-term leases with corporate tenants, retail units thrive in high-traffic areas, and industrial properties deliver some of the highest rental yields around. Because of the variety, you can tailor your investments to fit your goals and risk tolerance. Whether you’re after steady cash flow, capital growth, or a mix of both, there’s a commercial property type that lines up with your strategy.
/03
Reliable Income Stream
Thanks to long-term leases in commercial property, often spanning 3 to 10 years, businesses provide a steady rental income that you can actually count on. In fact, commercial tenants are more likely to commit to longer leases than residential renters, meaning less turnover and more predictable cash flow. That’s one of the key benefits of investing in commercial property.

Who Is Commercial Property Investment For?
Buying commercial investment property is a flexible option suitable for a broad range of investors:
/01
Experienced Investors
If you’ve already built a residential property portfolio and are looking for ways to enhance your returns, commercial property can be a solid move. The potential for larger rental income and longer lease terms offers a reliable way to boost your portfolio.
/02
High Net Worth Families
If you’re looking to diversify your wealth from other asset classes into a strong-performing asset class, then commercial property would be a strong consideration to enhance your generational wealth.
/03
Business owners
If you’re looking to turn your overhead costs into assets, investing in commercial property that supports your business operations could be a smart move. By owning the space where your business operates, you gain control over expenses, build equity, and potentially benefit from property appreciation – all while running your business.
