Mixed-Use and Green Commercial Real Estate in Des Moines, IA

Mixed-use properties incorporate at least two different types of commercial real estate, which can present a series of advantages. The different real estate types in a mixed-use property can complement each other in ways that sustain mutual success. For instance, ground-floor retail spaces may benefit from the constant stream of office workers to and from the upper floors of the same building, as well as serve the surrounding community.

Moreover, they are in line with relatively recent trends toward a healthier, more walkable urban environment, where more amenities are placed within easier reach of the population. Properties that are built and designed with sustainability in mind provide more value for investors, while also cutting down on costs for tenants. LEED certifications attest to a property’s commitment to green building, sustainability, and lasting value. The local market includes 3 LEED-certified commercial building(s).
