Commercial Property Buyers in Southern Indiana
Kentuckiana Commercial Co. is a direct buyer of commercial property based in Jeffersonville, Indiana, and Southern Indiana is our home market. We review and purchase buildings across Clark and Floyd counties and the towns around them using our own capital — we don’t list them for someone else. Tell us about your building, and we’ll tell you what a direct sale would and wouldn’t get you versus marketing it through a commercial broker.
A local Southern Indiana commercial buyer, not a national call center
Kentuckiana Commercial Co. is headquartered at 246 Spring Street in downtown Jeffersonville. We are the buyer — not a brokerage, and not a national platform routing your address to whoever happens to bid. When you contact us about a building in New Albany, Charlestown, or the Corydon area, you reach people who know those corridors and can give you a direct read on the property.
Our lane is commercial real estate and larger multifamily — buildings of five units or more. One-to-four unit residential is handled by our sibling company, Mortgage Forfeiture, and we are glad to point you there. Both are operating companies of Oettinger Management Group, so a referral stays within the group rather than being routed to an outside party.
Where we buy commercial property across Southern Indiana
Southern Indiana is not one market — it is a string of downtowns, highway corridors, and small-town squares, each with its own kind of building. We review and buy directly across Clark and Floyd counties and the communities around them:
- Jeffersonville — storefronts along Spring Street, the NoCo arts district, and flex and retail space on the Veterans Parkway corridor.
- New Albany — downtown buildings near Pearl and Market Streets, plus office and retail along Charlestown Road and State Street.
- Clarksville — retail and commercial property along Lewis and Clark Parkway, Veterans Parkway, and the Greentree area.
- Sellersburg, Charlestown, and Georgetown — highway-frontage retail, light industrial, and freestanding buildings near US 31, IN 62, and the River Ridge area.
- The Corydon area — older commercial buildings around the historic square and along the US 62 and I-64 corridors in neighboring Harrison County.
Commercial property types we buy
Commercial property in Southern Indiana ranges from a single aging storefront to a multi-tenant strip or a warehouse on acreage. We review a wide range, including:
- Retail and storefront buildings, strip centers, and freestanding restaurant or service space
- Office buildings, medical office, and mixed-use buildings with commercial down and units up
- Light industrial, warehouse, and flex space, including older buildings on usable land
- Apartment buildings and multifamily of five units or more
- Vacant, partially leased, or deferred-maintenance buildings that are hard to list conventionally
What we review on a commercial property
A commercial review is more involved than a house. Before anyone talks numbers, we work through the things that actually drive value and risk on a building like yours:
- Condition — roof, structure, mechanicals, and deferred maintenance
- Tenants and leases — who is in place, on what terms, and how stable the income is
- Title, liens, and back taxes that have to be cleared to close
- Zoning, permitted use, and any code or occupancy issues
- Access, parking, and the land the building sits on
- Environmental or older-building concerns common to commercial sites
Why Southern Indiana owners consider a direct sale
Listing a commercial building works well in plenty of cases. But for many owners across Southern Indiana, the situation makes a long, public marketing period the wrong fit — and a direct sale solves a specific problem:
- An anchor or key tenant moved out, and the rent roll no longer covers the note
- A triple-net or long-term lease is expiring with no renewal in hand
- A property-tax reassessment or a jump in insurance has upended the operating numbers
- An SBA loan, a balloon payment, or a maturing note is coming due
- A partnership dissolution, an estate, or a retirement has put the building in play
- The roof, HVAC, or a build-out needs funding the owner does not want to put in just to market it
In those cases, a direct sale skips the months a half-leased or dated building can sit on the market, and you don’t have to re-tenant it or fund a build-out first to make it financeable for a retail buyer. You sell as-is and keep control of the timing.
How selling to a direct commercial buyer works
- Tell us about the building — address, type, and what is going on. A brief overview is enough to begin.
- We do the property review, pulling condition, tenant, title, and use details together, usually with a local walk-through.
- We talk through what a direct purchase would look like, in plain terms, with no obligation.
- If it fits, we move to a purchase agreement and close on your schedule — we can work around an existing tenant, a 1031 exchange deadline, or a lender payoff, and we don’t make repairs a condition of closing.
Southern Indiana commercial sellers ask
Who buys commercial property in Southern Indiana?
Kentuckiana Commercial Co. is a direct buyer of commercial property based in Jeffersonville, Indiana. We buy throughout Southern Indiana — Clark and Floyd counties and surrounding communities including New Albany, Clarksville, Sellersburg, Charlestown, Georgetown, and the Corydon area — using our own capital rather than listing buildings for someone else. If you are not sure whether your building is in our area, just ask.
What types of commercial property do you buy?
We buy retail and storefronts, office and medical office, mixed-use, light industrial and warehouse, and apartment buildings of five units or more. We also review vacant, partially leased, and deferred-maintenance buildings that are difficult to list the usual way.
Are you a broker or a real estate agent?
No. Kentuckiana Commercial Co. is a direct buyer using its own capital. We are not listing your property, charging a commission, or shopping it to other buyers — we are deciding whether to purchase it ourselves.
Do you buy 1-4 unit residential property?
No. One-to-four unit residential is not our lane — that is handled by our sibling company, Mortgage Forfeiture, and we are happy to refer you. Kentuckiana Commercial Co. focuses on commercial property and multifamily of five units or more. Both are operating companies of Oettinger Management Group.
What does a property review cost?
Nothing — and the findings are yours to keep. The condition, title, lease, and zoning notes we pull are yours to take to a broker or another buyer if you would rather list it. There is no obligation, including doing nothing at all.
