Income on day one. A path to more.

1408–1428 S 8th St in Yakima is 15 units spread across 9 separately parceled lots, all zoned R2, generating rental income right now. The footprint carries a potential pathway to as many as 36 units through redevelopment.

For a buy-and-hold investor, that's immediate cash flow. For a developer, it's a density play with room to grow. For the right buyer, it's both.

Nine parcels this well-positioned don't come up often.

FOR SALE | 1408–1428 S 8th St, Yakima, WA 98901 | $1,750,000

Signing a commercial lease? Run this checklist first.

☐ Lease structure — Confirm whether it's gross, modified gross, or NNN. Each splits operating costs differently, and it directly changes what you owe every month.

☐ Term length — Decide what fits your business stage. A longer term locks in stability; a shorter one keeps you flexible.

☐ Rent escalations — Check how and when rent increases. Annual bumps add up over a multi-year term.

☐ Renewal options — Know whether you have the right to renew, and on what terms, before you're locked in.

☐ Operating expense responsibilities — Clarify who pays for taxes, insurance, maintenance, and repairs.

☐ The fine print — Commercial leases are detailed legal documents. The details are where the cost lives.

Whether you're leasing space or listing yours to lease, Peak Commercial Group handles both sides.

Every month you keep leasing, you're funding someone else's equity.

That's not always the wrong move. But if your business has stable, predictable space needs, it's worth asking what you'd have to show for those payments five years from now if you owned instead.

Owning your building means fixed occupancy costs instead of rent that climbs at renewal. It means control over your space and how you use it. And it turns a monthly expense into an asset on your balance sheet.

The question isn't whether owning is better in the abstract. It's whether it's better for your specific situation, and that's a numbers conversation.

Discover whether ownership makes sense for your business.

FAQ: What does a CCIM actually change about who represents me?

Q: Every broker says they know the market. What's different about a CCIM?
A: The CCIM designation is one of the most rigorous credentials in commercial real estate. It requires advanced training in investment analysis, financial modeling, and transaction structuring. Most brokers don't hold it.

Q: Why does that matter to me as a buyer?
A: Because commercial decisions are financial decisions first. A mispriced asset or a missed lease detail can cost you far more than any commission. A CCIM analyzes rather than estimates.

Q: Does the local piece matter as much as the credential?
A: Both matter. Russ Roberts pairs the CCIM designation with more than two decades in the Central Washington market.

Partner with a broker who brings both to the table.

Specialized space is hard to find. This building was built for it.

445 Barnard Blvd in Sunnyside is a 5,040 SF commercial building on a 1.4-acre lot, built in 2002 and most recently used as a bovine veterinary clinic. The layout suits laboratory functions and office use, and two separate front entrances make a multi-tenant setup possible from day one.

It sits in the newer part of Sunnyside's commercial district, right next to the Port of Sunnyside offices, with quick access to Interstate 82.

For an operator who needs lab or clinical space, or an investor who wants a building with built-in tenant flexibility, this one is worth a close look.

FOR SALE | 445 Barnard Blvd, Sunnyside, WA 98944 | $795,000

You don't need a portfolio full of buildings to start investing in commercial real estate. You need one good decision made with the right information.

A lot of people in the Yakima Valley assume commercial property is a world reserved for the wealthy or the already-established. It isn't. Plenty of first-time investors got in with a single property that pays them back every month, chosen carefully with guidance.

The barrier usually isn't money as much as it's knowing where to begin, and what actually makes a property perform. That's the part a conversation solves.

Explore what's realistic for you. Call Russ Roberts before you rule yourself out.
