Why Neighborhood Retail?

Rising Consumer Demand

The national population growth and diverse demographics across the United States contribute to a growing demand for retail spaces, ensuring a reliable stream of potential customers and tenants. Consumers' evolving shopping habits, such as the blend of online and in-store purchasing, continue to drive retail activity.

Comparative Advantage

With office spaces experiencing high vacancy rates and multifamily properties facing compressed cap rates, value-add retail stands out as a more lucrative investment. Retail properties offer better returns and greater flexibility in lease structures.

Prime Locations

Value-add retail properties across the country often occupy prime locations in high-traffic areas, from bustling urban centers to suburban hubs, providing a significant advantage in attracting customers and top-tier tenants. This makes these properties attractive for both investors and retailers.

NNN Leases

Triple Net (NNN) leases, which are common in retail properties nationwide, mean tenants are responsible for paying property expenses such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance. This structure reduces operating costs for landlords and boosts the net income generated from the property.

Redevelopment Potential

Many retail properties nationwide are ripe for redevelopment, particularly as older malls and shopping centers are repurposed to meet current consumer preferences. This presents an opportunity to modernize spaces and improve their appeal, thereby boosting property value and rental income.

Community Revitalization

Investing in value-add retail properties contributes not only to increased property values but also to the revitalization of local communities. Well-designed and attractive retail spaces can transform neighborhoods, attracting visitors and providing valuable amenities to residents and businesses alike.

Economic Resilience

As office spaces nationwide face high vacancy rates and multifamily properties experience compressed cap rates, value-add retail properties stand out as a more attractive investment. Retail properties typically offer better returns, higher flexibility in lease structures, and the potential for greater appreciation over time.

Vacancy Rates

Nationwide, retail properties generally exhibit low vacancy rates, particularly in strong markets with demand for shopping and entertainment spaces. This high demand allows landlords to command higher rents, thus increasing the profitability of retail investments across the country.
