Unsure of how to move forward? Start with a no-obligation consultation to discuss your portfolio needs. Our experts are ready to provide personalized advice and outline how our auction process can work for you. Let us help you navigate this complex market and find the right solutions for your assets.

Municipalities

Turn city-owned liabilities into community investment. Auctions generate fair market value and attract a broad buyer pool, ensuring the best sale price for your municipality, not to mention attention from expanding businesses and revitalization of underutilized properties.

Upgrade Your Community

Clearing out excess real estate is a great way to provide capital for municipal projects without spending a single tax dollar. That empty building could pay for a community pickleball court, and cash from this vacant lot will buy new playground equipment!

How To Successful Sell Commercial Real Estate

Target The Right Audience

Every piece of real estate is unique, and the best type of user for one building is not the same as the best user for another. OpenCRE utilizes a variety of marketing channels to put your property in front of the right people, improving your exposure to buyers that are actually looking for what you are selling.

Price Your Commercial Property Correctly

We aggregate commercial property sales data from many different sources, and utilize proprietary formulas to generate a report suggesting the best listing price range for your commercial building. One of our team members then reviews the report, adjusts it to account for unique aspects of your specific property, and then we move forward with the listing. Our commercial real estate listing prices are backed by data and adjusted as the industry changes. Choose the team that excels the commercial real estate industry and modern technology.

Leverage Real Estate Technology

The world is moving faster and faster, and throwing up a sign in the front yard to sell a property just isn't going to cut it anymore. We built our own technology stack specifically for commercial real estate, which lets us provide the best possible service to our customers, prospective buyers, and potential tenants. From remote property access, to instant purchase agreement and lease generation, to dynamic marketing and more, you need a team that understands the way today's buyers want to shop.

Make Closings Accessible From Anywhere In The World

If you have ever spent an afternoon awkwardly sitting around a closing table waiting for funds to clear, you will understand why we couldn't wait to make that a thing of the past. OpenCRE leverages modern technology for every aspect of the transaction, including electronically signing agreements, utilizing remote notaries over webcam for signing deeds, and providing virtual commercial property tours for all of our listings. Buyers and Sellers can now work together from anywhere in the world, without being required to coordinate in person meetings or signing sessions. That means your transaction will move much faster, with less stress for both parties.

Create Visibility To An International Market

Our commercial real estate and equipment auction platform reaches buyers both locally and around the world. This means more eyes on your listing, which means a higher sales price on auction day. Our team will customize a marketing strategy for each listing to get it in front of the people most likely to be looking for what you have.

Show Virtually Via Digital Property Twins

Our professional photography team creates a digital twin of your property, which allows buyers to virtually tour both the inside and outside of your building, from anywhere in the world. They can move through the building as if they were actually there, understand the layout, and plan their future renovations, all before ever setting foot in Michigan. More potential buyers looking at your property means it will sell faster, and for a better price than it would otherwise.

Instant Remote Access Showing System

It is well known in the sales world that the optimal time to respond to a lead is within the first 5 minutes of them reaching out. When a buyer decides they are ready to look at a property, they want to see it NOW. Our proprietary remote access showing system allows our team to verify the identity of a prospective buyer, issue an access code, confirm entry and exit on camera, and then delete the access code, all within a matter of minutes. In a few days, when other brokers are still getting around to responding to showing requests left on their voicemail, we have already negotiated a deal and signed the paperwork.

In House Title Insurance & Escrow

We needed a commercial title company that works the way we do. Fast, efficient, and from anywhere in the world. When we couldn't find one, we created it! Utilizing Token Title, our in house title company, you can be sure your transaction will be smooth and seamless. With remote notarizations over video chat, e-signing for general documents, and same day wire transfers and funds processing, it doesn't get much easier!
