Most common mistakes when buying logistics real estate – and how to avoid them

Buying logistics real estate is a serious investment. Mistakes in this process can lead to legal issues, unexpected costs, and operational limitations.

1. Incomplete location analysis

Ignoring access to major roads, lack of workforce in the area, poor connectivity with suppliers.

2. Overlooking technical specifications

Insufficient ceiling height for storage, poor floor load capacity, lack of docks and access ramps.

3. Legally unverified properties

Ownership issues, missing construction and usage permits, urban plans that restrict usage.

4. Misalignment with business strategy

Space does not support growth, inability to adapt, poor energy efficiency.

5. Rushed decision without consultation

Lack of due diligence, ignoring expert advice, purchasing without ROI assessment.

How to check the legal status of a property?
Hire a legal expert and verify land registry, permits, and contracts.

Is it possible to repurpose the land?
It depends on the local urban plan — check with the municipality.

Purchasing logistics real estate requires thorough analysis and professional support. Avoid mistakes that could cost more than the investment itself.
