Most medical practices do not run into property problems because of a lack of effort.

They happen because assumptions are made about the space, compliance requirements, and future needs that later prove incorrect. ⚠️

Your accountant reviews the numbers. 📊
You review the documents. 📄
Your builder or fit-out team reviews feasibility. 🏗️
The agent represents the seller. 🏢

But who is checking whether the property actually supports how your practice needs to operate, comply, grow, and eventually transition? 🤔

Before you buy or commit, here are 15 signs that should make you pause and investigate further. 🔍

The full guide explains:
✅ What to look for
✅ Why it matters
✅ The key standards and considerations that apply

A property decision can impact your practice for years. Make sure you are asking the right questions before you commit. 🩺🏥

📊 A valuer

This checklist highlights 15 signs to pause and investigate across five key areas that are often overlooked during the buying process, but regularly considered when assessing risk, usability, and value.

The full checklist covers:
✓ What to look for
✓ Why it matters
✓ Which reports are worth investing in

Just because you can borrow it, doesn’t mean you should.

Your borrowing capacity isn’t your budget.

Before you max out your borrowing power, ask:

Will this give me freedom - or leave me financially trapped?

The right property has to work for your business, your finances AND your life.

What is a commercial property actually worth?
Whats the real cost of commercial property?

When it comes to negotiation, valuation can play a very different role.

There’s the bank valuation.
The market valuation.
What the seller believes the property is worth.
What the buyer believes it’s worth.

And then there’s the truth.

Usually, somewhere in between.

A valuation can be an important tool, but it doesn’t automatically determine the price or give you leverage in a negotiation.

Understanding why you’re getting a valuation, and how you’re going to use it, is just as important as the number itself.

🎙️ We unpack this and more in our latest episode of Commercial Property Uncovered: Beyond the Contract.

Sometimes, less is more in a lease negotiation. 👀

When you're a business owner leasing a commercial property, what you reveal about your business can influence the negotiation.

In this case, despite a busy B2C business and significant investment in the site, the strategy was to keep expectations low when the landlord dropped by.

Why?

Because when lease renewal or renegotiation came around, there was no need to hand the landlord extra am******on to justify a higher rent.

The business had already added value to the property through its fit-out.

The lesson? What you don't say can be just as important as what you do say.

Property pricing isn't always what it seems 👀

In residential property, a listing is often marketed at a level designed to generate interest, enquiries and competition, while the vendor may have a higher price expectation in mind.

Commercial property can work differently. The asking price may be set higher, with the expectation that negotiations will bring the final deal down.

Different markets. Different strategies. Same key principle:

Everything is negotiable.

Understanding the strategy behind the asking price can make a big difference when you're entering a property negotiation.

Before you buy the property, ask one question: 👇

🏢 Will this actually work for my business?

Look at:
🚗 Parking & clearways
👀 Visibility & accessibility
🔨 Fit-out potential
🚆 Public transport
📈 Population & infrastructure growth
💰 Long-term asset value

And most importantly...

⏸️ Pause.
👥 Get the right specialist advisers.
🎯 Don’t make decisions based on FOMO.

What works for someone else may not work for you.

Buying commercial property through your SMSF? 🏢💰

The property you choose isn’t just about what works for your business today.

It needs to work for your future too.

🎯 Choose the right asset
📈 Think about future value
⏱️ Get the sequence right
⚠️ Set up your SMSF BEFORE you buy

Buying first and sorting the SMSF afterwards can trigger stamp duty and other costs.

The big takeaway? Start the conversation early.
