Commercial and Industrial Real Estate is Booming
Commercial real estate sales in Kelowna are brisk and have been for several years. With the growth in the city and surrounding areas, the demand for commercial and industrial real estate is high.
Over the past few years, the supply of commercial space for sale has not kept up with demand. There is limited land available for sale that is zoned for commercial or industrial use. With lower levels of commercial and industrial real estate inventory, this has placed upward pressure on values. Commercial real estate is a solid investment if you can find it!

Commercial–retail–office–instustrial
Commercial for sale
Commonly used for retail and office space, commercial real estate for sale is currently at a premium. Average sale prices for commercial real estate vary more than residential. Prices are dependent on the area, size, location, use, and age of the building. All of these factors will determine a fair market dollar per square foot for the commercial real estate space.
commercial for Lease
While commercial real estate for sale is tight, there are more options for commercial leased space. Average lease space goes for anywhere from $18 a square foot to $20 a square foot depending on the location, size, and age of the building. Newer construction and premium lease space can run as high as $35 a square foot. These prices would be plus triple net, which consists of property taxes, utilities, insurance, and maintenance.
Industrial
Industrial land sells on average $1.1 an acre to $1.3 an acre. Unlike traditional real estate sales, the larger the parcel, typically, the lower the price as demand for large parcels is lower. While the industrial land base supply remains low making it difficult for new future commercial construction.
