What is commercial Real Estate Investing?

• Commercial real estate (CRE) is property that is
  used exclusively for business-related purposes or
  to provide a workspace rather than as a living
  space, which would instead constitute residential
  real estate. Most often, commercial real estate
  is leased to tenants to conduct income-generating
  activities. This broad category of real estate
  can include everything from a single storefront
  to a huge shopping center.
• Commercial real estate investing involves buying
  and selling property used for business purposes
  rather than residential use. You may have heard
  of these properties referred to as commercial
  or multifamily properties but theyre not
  necessarily any different from what we normally
  think of as an office building or shopping center.

The Difference Between Commercial and Residential
Real Estate

• Commercial real estate differs from residential
  real estate in several ways. For instance,
  residential property owners dont typically have
  access to income-producing assets like parking
  garages or conference rooms. These are
  variables/strategies to take a property to its
  highest best use. However, we do want to point
  out that with Airbnb models residential investors
  now have assets that they can get more creative
  with on the nightly stays. 
• The main difference between commercial and
  residential property is that commercial
  properties usually have multiple tenants who pay
  rent on a monthly basis while residential
  properties only have one tenant per unit (usually
  the owner).
