Difficulty: Challenging

1. Gather all the information about the property. You should have as much information about the property in a convenient place. This should include the address, demographics of the property, information about the current rentors, if any, and any other pertinent information you can think would help the building sell.
2. Shop around for a commercial real estate agent to take on your property. Shopping around is a good idea to compare success rates, the length of time they have been handling commercial property, and the contacts they have that may be looking for a piece of commercial property.
3. Sell it on your own. If you are confident that you can find a buyer and sell the property on your own, go ahead! This is a great way to save money on realtor commissions and have more control over the working with the buyer of the property. You will need to advertise in different realty outlets and online to get the best response.
4. Contact anyone you know who might be interested in acquiring a piece of commercial property. This is not only a great way to find a possible buyer among people you already trust, but word of mouth is the best method of advertising. Those you network with will tell people they know and interest will generate quickly.
