Oakland Park’s commercial property is small industrial and service space: warehouses, contractor shops and flex buildings along Dixie Highway and the railroad, with retail and restaurants on Oakland Park Boulevard and in the downtown Culinary Arts District. Small-bay industrial this close to Fort Lauderdale is scarce, so it stays in demand, and some older buildings are being converted to restaurant and mixed use.
Oakland Park has about 9.6 million square feet of commercial buildings and recorded 42 arm's-length sales at a median $242 per square foot, below the county's $322. There were 2 distress signals; we score them with Linton Global Technologies' CREDDS Framework (see our distressed commercial real estate hub).
Oakland Park is one of the last places near Fort Lauderdale where you can still buy a small warehouse. Those buildings rarely sit empty, and along Dixie Highway some are worth more as restaurant or mixed-use space. Price both before you sell or buy.
