Commercial Real Estate is commonly considered to be all real estate with the potential to generate outside income and/or revenue for the owner of the real property. This can include many property types:
If the property has the potential to generate revenue now or in the future it may be deemed as commercial real estate. Alternatively, some people consider those properties that generate outside income and/or revenue, except for real estate that is habitable (houses, condos, apartment buildings), to be commercial real estate. Capital gains and rental income can also be earned, in addition to the property types listed above, through investment in niche properties.
