Frequently Asked Questions

Sioux Falls offers a strong investor market: steady population growth, a diverse economy, and a business-friendly tax climate. Opportunities vary by asset type and location, so the right investment depends on your goals and risk tolerance. Our brokers can walk you through where the market is today and where they see opportunity. Our most recent Market Outlook report offers insight into recent investment trends and predictions.

In a sale-leaseback, a business sells the property it occupies to an investor, then leases it back, usually on a long-term lease. This allows the business to free capital tied up in real estate without moving, while the investor gets a property with a committed tenant. It can be a smart move if you want to fund growth, pay down debt, or strengthen your balance sheet, but it’s important to have the correct lease terms. We help owners weigh the trade-offs, price the deal, and find the right buyer; likewise, we help investors find sale-leaseback opportunities. Reach out to one of our brokers to explore if a sale-leaseback fits your business.

A 1031 exchange lets you defer capital gains taxes when you sell an investment property and then reinvest the proceeds in like-kind property. There are strict rules: you have 45 days from the sale to identify replacement property, 180 days to close, and a qualified intermediary must hold the funds in between. Bender Commercial handles the real estate side of a 1031 exchange: selling your property, finding replacement properties that fit your goals, and keeping the deal on schedule. Talk with your tax advisor about the tax details, then call us at 605-336-7600.

We encourage you to start the process early, ideally before your sale closes. Whether you’re just starting to look or have a firm deadline, our brokers know what’s available in Sioux Falls and across the region and can help you identify properties that meet both your investment goals and your exchange requirements. Reach out to info@benderco.com to start your search.

Yes. Like-kind is broad: most U.S. real estate held for business or investment qualifies, regardless of state. Some states have their own tax rules when you exchange out of them, so confirm the details with your tax advisor. Bender Commercial helps investors find replacement property across South Dakota and the surrounding region.

Cap rates vary by asset type, location, tenant strength, lease terms, and timing, so there is no single number for Sioux Falls. A single-tenant NNN property with a national tenant will trade very differently than a multi-tenant strip center. Our brokers track local investment sales and can tell you what to expect for the property type you’re considering.

We look at income, expenses, tenants, lease terms, physical condition, location, and how the property fits your goals. Our analysis can include an Annual Property Operating Data (APOD) report, which summarizes a property’s income and operating expenses to show its net operating income. Our brokers make sure you get a clear view of the numbers before you commit.
