Industrial and warehouse property in Salem, Oregon

What I check before you tour

Industrial space has to work for the operation first. A building can look right and still fail on height, loading or power. Before you tour, I’ll help you pin down what you need:

• Clear height: the usable height under the lowest beam, sprinkler or light. It decides how high you can rack.
• Docks and doors: dock-high doors, grade-level doors, truck court and turning room.
• 3-phase power: amps and voltage at the panel, and what the utility can add if you need more.
• Zoning: whether your use is allowed outright, needs a land-use approval, or isn’t allowed at that site. Confirm it with the city or county before the LOI.

For tenants and buyers, I’ll find options that fit, compare total occupancy cost and negotiate the terms.

For owners, I’ll get the specs right in the marketing (heights, doors, power, yard) so the right users call, and I’ll qualify them before they tour.

I spent about 20 years in retail, including 14 running NW Cellular, a Metro by T-Mobile dealer that peaked at 51 stores. I know what it costs a business when the space doesn’t work. I work Salem and the Mid-Willamette Valley with Coldwell Banker Commercial Mountain West.
