Private Practice Relocation

Has The Pandemic Lead to Openings for Private Businesses Relocating to the Quinte Real Estate Market?

Even before Covid affected real estate markets around the world, some demographic trends were already in motion.

It’s old news that during the pandemic remote working, quality of life, and personal reflection have led many people to reassess what is most important, or rather, essential. This has caused a shift in priorities, new interests, new life vision and new purpose!

What Does Local Realty Look Like Post COVID-19?

Most smaller towns and cities have seen a significant influx of home buyers in the past two or three years, and the pandemic has only accelerated and enhanced these simmering changes!

In terms of local realty, Belleville, Prince Edward County and the whole Quinte real estate market have experienced more than their fair share of the socio-economic drift from the cities. 

With home sales up 30-40%, and unprecedented increases in sale prices, we have proof that urban buyers are on the hunt for new opportunities in smaller towns.

What Does The Socio-Economic Drift Mean For Local Realty?

For some, this could mean a change in career. For others, this could simply mean relocating a private, professional practice. 

Private Practice

Whether medical, counseling, legal, accounting, or almost any other field, there are local practitioners choosing a new direction and location for their private businesses. 

Quinte has seen a significant increase in demand for shared workspace, small offices, retail, and medical professional space - all designed to help private businesses succeed in the local market. 

Seeing this exceptional growth has got our team excited! Watching the diversity develop in our communities, helping local entrepreneurs plant their roots, and experiencing the prosperity of this community is truly so life-giving!

Keep In Mind When Shopping For Local, Commercial Real Estate Options:

Here are some tips to keep in mind when searching out local, commercial real estate. 

  1. Of course, you will need to be aware of zoning, permitted uses, parking restrictions, and building code requirements. 

  2. Financing a building with a partial commercial component is quite different from buying a home. Consulting with a mortgage specialist who has lots of experience with these types of purchases will give you the edge you need in making an informed financial decision.

  3. Preparing a solid business plan for your project/business will help identify needs within your commercial location. 

  4. Be thorough with your due diligence and lean on the Rufo Real Estate Team to ensure a safe and equity-enhancing investment!
