Why Business Owners Are Buying Mixed-Use Buildings in Brandon
How local business owners are building equity by owning two-building commercial and residential properties in Brandon and Seffner.
Report Highlights
- Instead of paying rising office rent each year, many attorneys, CPAs, medical offices, and contractors are buying their own buildings in Brandon.
- Two-building properties let you use one building for your business while renting out the second building for extra monthly income.

Owning Your Building vs. Paying Rent
When you buy a mixed-use property like 126 Ridgewood Ave & 613 E Morgan St in Brandon ($845,000), you lock in your monthly occupancy cost, build long-term equity, and can lease out the second building to help pay down your mortgage.
