Strategic Commercial Real Estate Advisory
Retail & Industrial Property Sales
At Tidewater Business Brokerage, our Commercial Real Estate Division delivers high-powered advisory services tailored specifically to the sale of retail and industrial properties. We do far more than list properties—we execute with strategic precision, leveraging deep market intelligence, institutional-grade analytics, and a dual lens approach that blends real estate with business brokerage insight.
Our expertise in retail and industrial assets—from multi-tenant strip centers to logistics and distribution facilities—is rooted in a robust understanding of what drives real estate value beyond surface-level metrics. We evaluate each asset through the eyes of both investors and operators, considering lease structures, tenant creditworthiness, market absorption trends, last-mile delivery logistics, and demographic shifts. These data-driven insights enable us to not only position the property for maximum value but to anticipate how sophisticated buyers will underwrite it.

What sets Tidewater apart is our unique integration of business brokerage acumen into our real estate practice. Many properties—particularly owner-occupied or tenant-driven retail centers—contain operating businesses that directly influence valuation. Our team understands how to evaluate and communicate that operating value, identify sale-leaseback opportunities, and highlight embedded upside potential that traditional commercial firms often overlook. This hybrid understanding translates to stronger positioning, a broader buyer pool, and significantly higher transaction values.
Our process is surgical and confidential. Each asset is brought to market with a custom-crafted marketing campaign, an investor-grade offering memorandum, and financial models that mirror institutional underwriting practices. We deploy proprietary databases, targeted outreach
strategies, and established relationships with private equity groups, family offices, REITs, and national developers. While we provide selective leasing support, our primary focus is unlocking asset value through strategic sales that are built on substance, not speculation.
Choosing Tidewater means choosing more than a broker—you’re choosing an advisor that sees the full picture. Sellers who partner with us gain access to high-level advisory traditionally reserved for institutional clients, combined with the personalized service of a boutique firm. While local brokers may offer lower fees, they often leave real money on the table. Our clients hire us to maximize their exit—not minimize their commission.
Let Tidewater Business Brokerage position your retail or industrial asset with the sophistication it deserves.

Commercial Real Estate Services
Specializing in Retail & Industrial Property Sales
Overview
At Tidewater Business Brokerage, we provide strategic commercial real estate advisory with a focused expertise in the sale of retail and industrial properties. Our team combines institutional-level analytics with boutique-level attention—delivering a powerful platform for property owners seeking to unlock the full value of their assets.
Our approach is purpose-built for owners who recognize that selling commercial real estate requires more than listings—it demands strategy, discretion, and executional excellence.
Our Services
Retail & Industrial Sales
We specialize in high-value property sales across key sectors:
- Multi-tenant retail strip centers
- Owner-occupied or single-tenant retail
- Light industrial and warehouse properties
- Distribution, flex space, and logistics facilities
Each engagement begins with a deep-dive evaluation of the property’s market position, lease dynamics, cash flow profile, tenant credit strength, and physical attributes. We then layer on forward-looking market analytics to determine true potential—not just current value.
Integrated Business Brokerage Intelligence
Unlike traditional commercial brokers, we bring a business brokerage mindset to every real estate transaction. This is particularly critical when:
- The property includes an operating business
- Sale-leaseback options are being explored
- Tenant operations directly influence valuation
- Strategic buyers may value both the property and business components
This unique capability allows us to evaluate, package, and market assets with a level of depth most firms cannot provide—often resulting in higher sales prices and more competitive deal structures.
Confidential Marketing & Buyer Targeting
Every sale is handled confidentially and professionally. We craft:
- Investor-grade Offering Memoranda (OMs)
- Pro forma and real-time financial modeling
- Demographic and economic impact analysis
- Targeted outreach to institutional and private buyers (REITs, family offices, private equity, and high-net-worth investors)
Through proprietary databases and strategic partnerships, we bring your property to serious buyers—not browsers—and we protect your identity and business continuity throughout the process.
Why Tidewater Over a Local Firm?
Local firms often rely on generic listings, basic comps, and local contacts. While this may work for low-complexity assets, it falls short when a property has:
- Complex lease structures
- Embedded operating businesses
- Investment-grade tenants or sale-leaseback potential
- Institutional buyer appeal
Tidewater offers:
- National marketing reach
- Deep underwriting experience
- Sophisticated financial modeling
- Cross-functional deal-making experience
Our clients don’t just want a sign in the ground. They want results. And while our fees may be higher than discount brokers, the return we generate consistently offsets that difference—often by six or seven figures.
Our Process
- Initial Consultation & Strategic Assessment
We analyze your goals, financials, lease terms, and tenant landscape to develop a tailored sale strategy. - Valuation & Underwriting
We conduct market analysis, build a detailed pro forma, and assess the property’s position relative to capital markets. - Offering Materials & Positioning
We prepare a confidential, professional-grade Offering Memorandum and determine the ideal buyer pool. - Marketing & Buyer Outreach
Using both proprietary networks and direct outreach, we connect with serious, qualified buyers—often before the property ever hits the open market. - Negotiation & Deal Structuring
We negotiate from a position of strength, backed by our analytics and market reach, to structure deals that maximize net proceeds and minimize risk. - Due Diligence & Closing
We coordinate due diligence, facilitate clean document flow, manage legal and financial stakeholders, and help you get across the finish line—without disruptions to your business or operations.
Let’s Maximize the Value of Your Property
At Tidewater, we don’t just sell real estate—we position it, protect it, and elevate it. If you’re selling a retail or industrial asset and want institutional-level results with hands-on execution, we invite you to speak with our team.
