If your business occupies commercial or retail space, it might be in your best interest to purchase your building and stop paying rent. Here's some questions to help you decide whether owning commercial property in Florida is right for your business. Can you afford the mortgage? Be sure to calculate whether your monthly costs would rise if you took on a mortgage. If your Florida business can't afford the increased expense, it could easily create cash-flow problems for you.

Do you need or want control? Some businesses want to drastically alter their spaces as they create a unique identity. They want to paint all the walls tan, tear down walls, or install complex machinery that would be expensive or difficult to remove. If you want to do something to your office or store that you think a landlord won't go for, purchasing the building may be a better option than renting.

Is it a sound investment? Aside from giving you more control over your business and a tax writeoff, purchasing commercial property is an investment. Try to take a dispassionate look at the property with this in mind. Is it in a thriving neighborhood? Is it in a commercial district that's popular and full of tenants, or half empty? Are prices trending up or down? Has the building been well-maintained? Also consider how long you plan to stay in the space; will it be long enough for the property to appreciate in value? If not, could you easily rent it out to a tenant if you move?

Is a good building available? Research the market to see whether prices and interest rates are favorable and whether you could find a desirable location nearby or buy your existing building. Remember that moving and fixing up a new location will add to your business's costs and require marketing to make sure customers know where you've moved to.

Could you use the tax writeoffs? If your business is profitable, Florida property ownership can help reduce your tax burden. You should be able to write off a portion of the building's cost each year in the form of depreciation. Another option is to buy the building personally and then rent it to the company, a structure that may have some tax advantages.

Are you landlord material? If your building has other tenants, you will need to deal with their problems and make myriad decisions on everything from rent rates to building improvements as you manage the property. Evaluate whether this additional responsibility fits into your busy schedule or whether a good property manager could help.

Does it help you grow? Consider your company's growth plans before you purchase property. If you're growing fast, purchasing the small storefront you're in now may only create headaches down the road, when you need to move to larger quarters. On the other hand, if your building has multiple spaces and the other slots are currently filled with other tenants, you may be able to grow in place by gradually ending leases and taking over more space.

Have you got the cash? Most commercial building purchases in Florida require 20 percent down payments. If making the down payment puts a financial squeeze on your business, it may be a little too soon for property ownership.
