Broader perspective. Better decisions.

Our recommendations draw on more than market data: who the right tenant or buyer is, what a building actually costs to run, and what a property could become. That knowledge comes from across the firm, and our brokers stay with you long after the close.

Off market.

The listings you can’t search for.

A meaningful share of commercial property changes hands without ever appearing on a listing site. Those opportunities move through relationships: with the owners who control the property, and with the investors, operators, and lenders we work with across the firm. If you’re only seeing what is publicly listed, you’re seeing part of the market.

What we do.

Four ways we represent you.

Retail, land, industrial, office, medical and multifamily, in Sacramento, Chico, Redding and nationwide.

1Tenant representation

Retail, office, industrial and medical

You’re looking for space and the landlord’s broker isn’t working for you. We find the options, including the ones not publicly listed, and negotiate the terms. For growing brands, we find the markets and sites that fit, using spatial and predictive analytics built around each brand’s own performance data.

2Landlord representation

Single tenant through to anchored centers

Your building has vacancy. We price it against what is leasing, market it to the tenants who belong in it and work to fill it.

3Sales and acquisitions

Investment, owner-user and land

Buying or selling an investment property, a building for your own operations, or land ready for development. Pricing grounded in what is actually trading, and underwriting that holds up to a buyer’s, seller’s, or lender’s review.

41031 exchange

45 days to identify. 180 days to close.

Deadlines that don’t move. We work to identify replacement property and close inside the window.

Local and national.

Local relationships, national reach.

We know the owners, not just the buildings: who controls a property, what they want and when the timing is right. Our brokers bring decades of combined experience, specialize by property type and market, and have deep roots in Northern California and relationships and transactions that reach well beyond it.

We represent clients across the United States, including Quick Quack Car Wash, Maverik, Caliber Collision, WelbeHealth, Dutch Bros and Tesla, among others. National clients get local insight in every market we serve, and local clients get the perspective of a firm that works across the country.

Ask the people we’ve worked with.

Ryan is an agent who keeps you informed. He always makes great suggestions on how to make your property more appealing and marketable. If Ryan isn’t available, you can get assistance from Chris or Tyler. I highly recommend Capital Rivers for all commercial needs.

Questions.

What clients ask about brokerage.

What is the difference between commercial real estate brokerage and residential brokerage?

To begin with, commercial brokerage centers on properties intended for business purposes—such as retail spaces, office buildings, industrial facilities, and development land. These transactions are generally more complex and involve longer timelines. In contrast, residential brokerage primarily focuses on the buying and selling of homes and apartments for individuals and families.

What types of services does a commercial real estate brokerage provide?

In general, a commercial real estate brokerage offers a wide range of services. These include property acquisition, leasing, sales, market research, investment analysis, and lease negotiations. At Capital Rivers Commercial, we deliver full-spectrum services that are customized to each asset type and client objective. Ultimately, our goal is to drive long-term value creation.

How does a commercial real estate brokerage assist with leasing?

When it comes to leasing, brokerages play a dual role by representing both landlords and tenants. For landlords, we handle property marketing, identify qualified tenants, and negotiate favorable lease terms. Meanwhile, for tenants, we locate ideal spaces based on specific business needs, clarify lease structures, and secure beneficial terms.

How are commercial brokerage fees typically structured?

Generally speaking, fees are commission-based and are paid by the property owner or landlord upon the successful lease or sale of a property. Commission rates may vary depending on several factors, including property type, location, and the overall complexity of the transaction.

What makes commercial real estate brokerage in Northern California unique?

Importantly, each market in Northern California—such as Sacramento, Chico, and Redding—presents distinct economic drivers, zoning regulations, and growth trends. Therefore, a brokerage with deep local insight, like Capital Rivers Commercial, offers the specialized expertise that clients need to make informed, strategic decisions.

Can commercial brokerage services include investment guidance?

Absolutely. At Capital Rivers Commercial, our brokerage services often go hand-in-hand with investment advisory. Specifically, we help clients identify promising investment opportunities, evaluate cap rates, assess potential risks, and create strategies to enhance portfolio performance.

What should I expect during a commercial brokerage transaction?

Throughout the transaction process, you can expect a data-driven and consultative approach. From the initial site evaluation and market comparison to the final negotiation and closing, the brokerage acts as a strategic partner. Additionally, we manage due diligence, oversee documentation, and facilitate communication among all involved parties.
