The real estate market is currently in a downward state of flux. In the third quarter of 2007, the bottom dropped out, the free fall began and we started rethinking everything we thought we knew about real estate. Most nonresidential construction building categories are weighed down by some degree of oversupply, combined with weak demand, declines in commercial property values, difficulty getting project financing and macroeconomic uncertainty. Housing prices are down, 40 percent or more off peak in some area’s of the country, properties are taking longer to sell, buyers have a lot of inventory to choose from and it is more important than ever for sellers to get their price right. Now the good news is that if you’re thinking about buying an investment property, this would be a great time to do so! I would like to point out that historically times of crisis in the Real Estate market often turn out to have been times of opportunity in hindsight. Hard Real Estate [as opposed to investments like REIT shares] tend to move in the opposite direction from the stock market, so it offers a better way for Investors to diversify their portfolios than stocks or bonds. Real Estate Investments also benefit from tax advantages and incentives such as depreciation and the ability to use 1031 exchanges, also known as a "Starker Exchange" (more details 1031 Starker Exchange Info). Real Estate Investors can safely defer capital gains tax by using the assistsnce of a Qualified Intermediary and perform a like kind exchange. The "safe harbor" process and IRS rules for completion of a tax deferred exchange of real estate can be very complex, requiring consultation with a tax professional. Investment Specialists advise and recommend that Investors should have a minimum of 10 to 20 percent of their investment assets in real estate — not counting a principal residence. Stocks and Real Estate both promote the importance of private ownership.
In today's competitive real estate market, timing is everything. Many good properties are sold before they are ever advertised.

Gerber Scientific is consolidating in the Northeastern United States, relocating its Gerber Innovations business unit from Wilimington, MA, to its facility in Tolland, CT. The company expects to save about $900,000 annually as a result of the move, and incur charges of about $1.1 million for the first and second quarters of fiscal 2011. The Innovations unit, which develops products for the packaging industry, leases 16,000 square feet in Wilmington, according to CoStar information. Gerber Scientific is also subleasing its offices in South Windsor and Manchester, CT, as it consolidates all operations to Tolland.
Helicos BioSciences Corp. has amended its headquarters lease at One Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA. The life sciences company is extending its term in the building, while consolidating its space to reduce monthly operating costs. Helicos will continue to lease 27,298 square feet of office, lab and R&D space through June 30, at which time the space will be surrendered to the landlord, RB Kendall Fee LLC. The company's lease of 19,019 square feet of lab and storage space has been extended through the end of the year, and a new 7,245-square-foot office lease is slated to commence in July and also terminate on December 31.
