Retail Lives
Economic fundamentals continue to strengthen in the
U.S., a trend that is expected to endure through
mid-2019. With continued wage growth acceleration
and consumer confidence near an 18-year high, the
retail marketplace has registered solid spending.
Inflation-adjusted consumer expenditures show a
steady 2.5-3% year-over-year (YOY) growth pattern
since the beginning of 2016. eCommerce sales
accounted for approximately 11.5% of retail sales
(excluding auto sales) in 2017. While we expect that
penetration rate to climb to 14.0% by 2019, physical
stores remain vital to retailer survival in this evolving
retail climate. Despite what the media would lead you
to believe, the overall retail industry is still posting
gains even while it faces secular challenges.
2014 business briefing_humancapital_finalGuy Masse
This document discusses how companies are facing challenges in finding and retaining top talent. Real estate can help by providing workspaces that foster collaboration and innovation. Locations that appeal to workers are important as employees demand certain elements in their work experience. Some markets like Austin and Seattle provide high innovation potential at below average costs, making them good options for companies seeking talent. Demographic shifts are also impacting the labor supply, intensifying the competition for workers.
Real estate investment in emerging Asian markets grew 49.3% in the first half of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. Investment was driven mainly by increased land deals in China's tier 2 and 3 cities to support continued urbanization. While sentiment has improved, volatility remains from tapering risks and deficits. State-linked companies account for more investment in emerging markets than institutional investors due to a lack of grade assets. Overall, real estate investment in emerging Asian markets continues to evolve with ongoing assessment of transparency, access and political risks against long-term economic potential.
The U.S. industrial market experienced strong net absorption in Q3 2018, with overall vacancy remaining at historic lows despite increased construction. Demand was broad-based across regions and product types, with the South and West leading in absorption. Rents continued rising above 5% annually in over half of markets as demand outstripped supply in a tight market. The development pipeline expanded but speculative construction remains concentrated in top markets, indicating limited overbuilding risk through 2019.
-U.S. Office Market Was Driven by the Tech
Sector in the Fourth Quarter of 2018
-Absorption exceeds construction completions, vacancy
declines and the pipeline grows
-Tech markets tighten
-Rents rise, but the pace slows:
C&W Marketbeat - Canadian Industrial Report- Q2-2014 Guy Masse
This document provides a summary of industrial real estate market conditions across Canada in the second quarter of 2014. Key points include:
- The Alberta economy continued to outpace other regions, driven by growth in the oil and gas industry. This fueled record industrial real estate absorption in Calgary.
- Central Canadian markets struggled due to slow economic growth, though momentum was starting to improve in the second quarter.
- Strengthening US economic conditions are expected to increase demand for Canadian goods and services, benefiting industrial markets going forward.
- The document provides an overview of global real estate investment trends in 2015 and an outlook for 2016.
- Global property investment volumes fell slightly for the first time in 6 years in 2015, down 2.4% to $1.29 trillion, driven by a pullback in Asia, notably for development land. Excluding land, volumes rose 8.2%.
- Going forward, the focus will be on core assets that provide value to occupants. Investors will seek platforms for local intelligence and pursue opportunities such as modern flexible office, retail, and logistics space in gateway cities.

PRESIDENT TRUMP'S ADMINISTRATION & ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROPERTY MARKETS
Measuring the success of a new Administration by its first 100 days is a tradition, and President Trump reaches his first key milestone with campaign promises to overhaul Washington and jump-start the economy. This special report provides a perspective on:
How key economic indicators (inflation, job growth) and commercial real estate are performing so far
The status of key policy proposals, including trade and defense
What to watch for beyond the first 100 days
U.S. MarketBeats provide an overview of quarterly CRE activity and trends, a snapshot of current economic and capital market conditions as well as market-level statistics on key metrics.
The U.S. economy in 2016 was characterized by steady growth in the face of uncertainty. The year began with steep declines in global equity markets in response to concerns about a slowdown in China, the Europe replaced Asia as the focal point of global anxiety after the Brexit vote. In the fourth quarter, the U.S. unexpectedly elected Donald Trump as President. Despite uncertainty, the economy continued to add an average of 180,000 jobs per month during 2016.
Paine Wetzel/TCN 2016 Q4 State of the Market: Central EditionMarc Hale
TCN Worldwide is a consortium of 1,500+ commercial real estate professionals providing services in over 200 markets worldwide. It manages approximately $38.8 billion in transactions and 80 million square feet of space annually. The US economy grew at a moderate 2.3-2.4% in 2017-2018 according to forecasts, with some fiscal stimulus in the short run under the new administration. Commercial real estate transaction volumes declined in the central US region in 2016, with office down 20.6%, industrial down 45.4%, and retail down 9.7% compared to the previous year.
The National Multifamily Index ranks major U.S. markets based on projected vacancy rates, rent growth, and employment gains. San Francisco and San Jose rank at the top due to strong job growth, low vacancy, and high rents. Markets in the Pacific Northwest and Northeast also rank highly. Atlanta and Riverside-San Bernardino moved into the top 20 due to improving economies and property performance. Midwest markets rank in the lower third despite favorable demand drivers. Supply growth will challenge some markets like Houston and Tampa.
The retail market report summarizes 2015 trends in the Phoenix metro area. It notes that 65,700 jobs were added in 2015, home starts increased 70% year-over-year, and these economic gains are boosting consumer confidence. Retail vacancy rates declined to 9.3% while net absorption was 1.77 million square feet. Average rental rates increased to $14/sqft, up from $13.62/sqft in 2014. The report concludes that with continued job and housing growth, the retail sector is poised for growth in 2016.
The overall outlook for 2017 Canadian M&A activity remains moderately positive, despite the decrease in the number of Canadian companies sold in 2016. Corporate balance sheets are flush with cash, with corporations actively looking for quality investments. Interest rates remain low, and oil prices are showing signs of improvement. Private Equity firms also have large cash holdings and often see Canadian firms as good "bolt-on" opportunities. Read the report for more detail on trends, public market performance and deal activity.
The U.S. Tech sector’s new record high has brought back memories of the dot-com bubble. But unlike then,
today’s Tech sector is not propped up by fanciful talk. It’s led by companies that are truly transforming the
economy and our lives.
This report summarizes Q1 2015 trends in the US national office sector real estate market. It finds that the overall national availability rate rose slightly to 17.0% as new construction increased supply in many markets like Houston and Dallas. Asking rental rates continued to increase nationally and in major cities like New York City and San Francisco driven by new construction and tight supply. The report also discusses how companies are increasingly expanding to lower cost Sunbelt markets in the South and West for access to talent at a lower cost while pursuing the American consumer population growth in these areas.
The Houston industrial market saw 13 million square feet of new inventory added in 2019. Vacancy rates increased to 6.9% in the fourth quarter, though net absorption remained positive at 2.4 million square feet. Demand continues to be driven by logistics, distribution, and e-commerce users, though an oversupply of spec construction may challenge landlords in some submarkets. Overall, the Houston industrial market had a solid year with healthy absorption and job growth.

Domestic demand continues to bolster Asia Pacific growth amid heightened global uncertainty. While overall regional office leasing activity slowed in Q3 2016, performance was uneven across markets with some cities like Australia seeing strong growth. Commercial real estate investment remains healthy across Asia Pacific supported by low interest rates and strong liquidity. Occupier and investment demand are expected to sustain momentum in 2017.
The document provides an overview and analysis of capital markets activity in the summer of 2017. Some key points:
- Middle-market loan and debt issuance was robust, helped by strong M&A activity and refinancing. Leverage multiples increased.
- The Federal Reserve raised interest rates again but longer-term bond yields declined, reflecting moderating growth expectations.
- Corporate borrowing and profits remained strong despite political uncertainty. Near-term conditions remained favorable for middle-market issuers seeking financing.
Capital Markets Insights: Credit Availability for the Middle Market Remains R...Duff & Phelps
Recent trimming in first lien debt appetite resulted in a higher proportion of second lien and junior debt in capital structures. The fuller covenant packages typical of the private market, combined with unabated growth in private investor capital formation, have served to differentiate middle market conditions from those of the broader liquid markets. While the weighted average cost of debt for middle market issuers has increased modestly, credit availability — both in terms of leverage multiples and cost — is robust.
Capital Markets Industry Insights - Fall 2016Duff & Phelps
Middle-market issuers were greeted by strong demand this quarter from mainstream credit sources as well as those seeking higher degrees of risk and return. Macroeconomic fundamentals continued to improve, though the focus remained on monetary policy. With an increasingly stark dichotomy of views at the Federal Reserve, volatility persisted in anticipation of clearer guidance on the pace and timing of rate hikes.
The document provides an overview and outlook of the 2018 used car market from Cox Automotive. It finds that positive economic indicators in 2017 such as rising stock prices, home values, and consumer confidence bode well for continued strong vehicle sales in 2018, especially used vehicles. However, risks include rising interest rates from Federal Reserve rate hikes and a potential increase in inflation. Cox Automotive forecasts used car sales will rise slightly to 39.5 million units in 2018 while new car sales will dip slightly to 16.7 million. The report provides insights into key factors that will influence the used car market in 2018 such as the economy, jobs, consumer spending, auto loans rates and the Federal Reserve.
The document discusses commercial real estate lending trends in 2017. It provides an economic overview of 2016, noting that while global economies moderated, the US GDP maintained moderate growth. Consumer spending was the main driver of growth, while business investment declined. Employment gains were strongest in education, professional services, and leisure/hospitality. Lending conditions tightened for commercial real estate due to increased regulatory oversight.
Global prime logistics yields continued to decline in 2016 due to strong capital flows to the sector. Prime logistics provides higher yields than other property types, attracting investors. Demand remains robust in top markets in the Americas, EMEA, and Asia Pacific due to economic growth, e-commerce, and supply chain transformations. While investment activity is expected to remain strong in major hubs, investors may proceed cautiously in 2017 given potential economic and political uncertainties.
Commercial Real Estate Outlook - November 2010NAR Research
The document summarizes commercial real estate market conditions in the third quarter of 2010. It finds that while GDP growth was moderate, unemployment remained high, contributing to uncertainty. Commercial real estate fundamentals are expected to modestly improve in 2011, with rents continuing to decline and vacancies remaining elevated. Multifamily performance has been more resilient and is expected to lead the recovery in 2011.
The document analyzes real estate market cycles across five property types (office, industrial, apartment, retail, and hotel) in 54 metropolitan areas in the US. It finds that in the third quarter of 2018:
- Office occupancy increased slightly while rents grew modestly. Most markets are in the growth phase.
- Industrial occupancy was flat while rents increased. Demand is driven by e-commerce buildouts.
- Apartment occupancy increased slightly while rent growth was mild. Supply increases may be moderating.
- Retail occupancy was flat while rents grew slowly. Most markets are at peak occupancy.
- Hotel occupancy declined slightly while room rates increased. Over-supply risks exist in some markets.
2015 2Q North American Office Market ReportCoy Davidson
The U.S. office market saw improvements in Q2 2015, with vacancy rates declining and absorption improving. However, the Canadian office market weakened, with rising vacancy rates driven by falling oil prices. Overall North American vacancy fell slightly to 12.7%, with U.S. vacancy down to 13.0% and Canadian vacancy up to 9.1%. Absorption was positive in the U.S. at 23.1 million square feet but negative in Canada at -0.5 million square feet. The outlook remains positive for the U.S. office market but negative for Canada due to economic challenges from low oil prices.

Houston's retail market saw negative absorption in the second quarter for the first time in years, driven by bankruptcies like Toys R Us closing stores. However, smaller neighborhood and strip centers saw positive absorption. While vacancies increased slightly, the city's strong job and population growth are expected to fuel retail expansion in the long run. Rents decreased slightly but Houston remains the third strongest retail market nationally due to its affordability and diversity.

Life Settlement Industry Report
The dynamic nature of the life settlement market guided the creation of a comprehensive Life Settlement Industry Report. To present the landscape of the life settlement market as a whole, this report relies on growth data over the past four years as well as the increasingly competitive nature of the industry. A thorough discussion of the three types of risk associated with life settlements helps flesh out the portrait of the settlement market, and a summary of trends in the industry casts an eye toward the promising future of the industry.
Among the key findings in the industry report:
The growth of the life settlement industry has surpassed the predictions of forecasters. Whereas a 2016 Conning report projected an annual growth of 1 to 2 percent, the market has actually grown an average of 34 percent over the past few years.
With an aging population and lengthening life spans, retirement costs and the prohibitive price of long-term care necessitate options like the life settlement that can increase a senior’s disposable income.
Many people in their retirement years struggle with monthly expenses but hold wealth in non-liquid assets like a house, land, securities or a life insurance policy. When an insurance policy is no longer serving their needs, it can be converted into cash flow through a cash settlement to ease the retirement burden.

Restaurant Monthly Update - January 2017Duff & Phelps
December marked the ninth month out of the past ten with declining sales for the restaurant industry. Both same-store sales and traffic growth deteriorated from November’s results, officially marking 2016 as the worst year of industry performance since 2009. Despite challenges in the sector, private equity investors with significant dry powder and strong, relatively inexpensive credit, will likely continue to fuel investment in innovative and rapidly expanding restaurant concepts.

JLL Global Market Perspective - November 2018Harrison West
Global real estate markets have exceeded expectations as we enter the final quarter of 2018, with investment and corporate occupier activity set to surpass 2017 and finish the year at their highest levels since 2007. However, there are signs that activity is slowing as we move into 2019 and volumes are likely to moderate next year.
Retailers must evolve to succeed in the changing landscape. Major trends include the rise of mobile/online shopping, personalized marketing using consumer data, and same-day delivery expectations. Retailers need to expand their revenue sources beyond physical stores by developing new business models and marketplaces. They also must cut costs through supply chain optimization and reducing physical footprint to adapt to declining in-store sales. Retailers who reinvent their business models, cut costs aggressively, and reconfigure their real estate portfolios will be best positioned to thrive in this new dynamic environment.
Strong fundamentals drive US dealmaking despite macro-economic and political uncertainties. First-half activity remains on a par with 2016 as strong fundamentals continue to drive M&A.
Though US M&A faced challenges in H1 2017, the figures show that the market is active and vibrant. There were 2,413 deals worth US$588.5 billion recorded in H1 2017, up 0.5 percent by value compared to US$585.4 billion registered in H1 2016. If activity continues at its current level, US dealmaking is on track for another strong year.

Houston's retail market ended 2018 strong with a low vacancy rate of 5.3% and increased activity, though signs of a slowdown have begun to appear with available space and slowing deal flow. While the market remains healthy, existing retail centers will need to be leased before developers start new speculative projects. The pace of the retail market is expected to slow going forward as the cycle peaks, but Houston should remain a strong, vibrant retail market.

North America Industrial Construction Cost Guide 2023Guy Masse
The industrial construction sector in North America has seen historically high levels of activity and costs in recent years due to robust demand. While supply chain issues and inflation have driven up costs, some commodities prices are starting to moderate. However, construction contractors still largely expect costs to continue increasing in the near term due to labor constraints, high material and transportation costs, and a large backlog of projects. With record levels of construction underway and vacancy rates near all-time lows, the industrial sector faces ongoing challenges in completing projects on time and on budget.
March 2022 Labour Market Survey Highlights
• Employment rose by 73,000 in March, driven by an increase in full-time work.
• Employment rose in both the services-producing and the goods-producing sectors.
• Total hours worked rose 1.3% in March.
• The unemployment rate fell 20 basis points to 5.3% in March, the lowest rate on record since comparable data became available in 1976.
• The proportion of workers who report that they usually work exclusively from home continued to decline, down 180 basis points to 20.7%.
Cushman & Wakefield Toronto Americas Marketbeat Office Q1 2019 Guy Masse
Outlook
Given low availability, robust demand, and little relief from new
supply, the office story in Downtown Toronto is expected to remain
one of historically tight conditions and rising rental rates. On the
suburban front, availability is expected to trend upward in GTA
West as over 800,000 square feet (sf) hits the market in the second
half of 2019. GTA East will continue to see a moderate performance
with less than 200,000 sf of space tracked to become available this
year.
This document summarizes real estate market conditions in Montreal, Quebec in the first quarter of 2019. It finds that the unemployment rate remained unchanged at 5.9% and vacancy rates declined to 10.9% as positive absorption of 795,000 square feet continued across major markets. Rental rates increased slightly by 2% annually as large blocks of available space disappeared and demand increased in a tightening market. The outlook is for the positive momentum to continue through 2019, with further tightening of vacancy rates and small increases in average rental rates.
- Office availability rates decreased across central and suburban markets over the past year and quarter, with Vancouver CBD availability reaching an all-time low of 1.4%.
- Suburban markets saw strong absorption of nearly 800,000 square feet in the first quarter, driven by growth in Montreal, Vancouver, and Waterloo.
- Overall new supply additions were modest at 2.5 million square feet for the quarter, with most new space added to suburban markets.
- Total absorption of office space was over 1.2 million square feet for the quarter, led by continued momentum in suburban market growth.

Q4 2018
Canadian Office Statistical Summary
Driven by buoyant demand from technology companies, extremely tight CBD markets in both Vancouver and Toronto got even tighter over the final quarter of the year, helping drive the National CBD vacancy rate to 8.7% - its lowest point since Q3 2015!
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
• Canadian CBD Class A markets saw absorption of 3.6 msf in 2018, with a fourth quarter contribution of 1.5 msf. This is the strongest premium space growth since 2011.
• The arrival and partial occupancy of Stantec Tower helped drive Q4 2018 absorption in Edmonton’s downtown market to above 800,000 sf, with a final year-end 2018 tally of 1.2 msf.
• Although Calgary continues to see modest momentum in its CBD market, Suburban markets had a strong year with absorption reaching 337,000 sf. This drove vacancy to 16.9% from 19.4% one-year-ago.
• Vacancy in Downtown Toronto reached an incredibly tight 1.9% in Q4, a vacancy rate not seen in over 35 years. Conditions are expected to remain extremely tight until late 2020 when the first in a 10.7 msf wave of new developments will begin to hit the downtown market.
• Downtown Vancouver, another hot market driven by technology growth, saw its vacancy decline to 2.3% in Q4; its lowest point since Q2 2008. Like Toronto, little relief for tenants is not anticipated until the next wave of downtown new supply begins to arrive in late 2020.
C&W REAL ESTATE MARKET REPORTS : WORKPLACE 2025 #CREGuy Masse
Visualizing the workplace in 2025 starts with the realization that planning for that reality starts today. People today can work from anywhere, at any time so offices now must compete with other workplace options. When workers do go into the office they want a work environment to complement their work-life experience – and in a place where they feel valued, connected and supported. It’s all about people – and it’s closer than you think.

Q1 2018 Canadian Office Statistical Summary
Turning Up the Heat
The summer arrived about nine years ago for many Canadian office markets, marking one of the longest growth cycles on record. With CBD availability rates plunging as low as 2.5% in Toronto and 4.3% in Vancouver, the heat has intensified. Meanwhile, oil-producing markets are seeing the first signs of recovery.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS:
• After enduring a grinding bust cycle, top oil-producing markets -- Calgary, Edmonton, and St. John’s -- reached high-water CBD availability marks of 23.7%, 14.1%, and 26.7%, respectively. CBD Edmonton will see the Stantec Tower arrive in Q3 2018, pushing availability towards 20%.
• With oil prices gaining some buoyancy in recent months and CBD Calgary expected to hit peak availability by early 2019, expectations are growing that absorption will begin shifting to the positive side over the next few quarters.
• Remarkably, CBD Toronto saw the strongest absorption of the quarter, reaching close to 300,000 square feet (sf). Both Toronto and Vancouver downtown markets will remain notoriously tight until at least 2021.
• Of the major markets, Vancouver did it again, posting the strongest suburban expansionary momentum in the country, totaling about 300,000 sf. The runner up, surprisingly, was Calgary, where suburban absorption hit 115,000 sf over the quarter. Green shoots!

Retail Lives
Economic fundamentals continue to strengthen in the
U.S., a trend that is expected to endure through
mid-2019. With continued wage growth acceleration
and consumer confidence near an 18-year high, the
retail marketplace has registered solid spending.
Inflation-adjusted consumer expenditures show a
steady 2.5-3% year-over-year (YOY) growth pattern
since the beginning of 2016. eCommerce sales
accounted for approximately 11.5% of retail sales
(excluding auto sales) in 2017. While we expect that
penetration rate to climb to 14.0% by 2019, physical
stores remain vital to retailer survival in this evolving
retail climate. Despite what the media would lead you
to believe, the overall retail industry is still posting
gains even while it faces secular challenges.
Retailer bankruptcy announcements have continued
in 2018; as of early October, the year-to-date (YTD)
total is 14, compared to 36 total filings in 2017.
Although these bankruptcies have led to a significant
number of store closures, a recent report by IHL
Group indicates store openings are outnumbering
closures in 2018, with an estimated positive net gain
of 3,835 stores nationally. Although bankruptcies
impact all classes of shopping centers, Class A
centers are in the best position to quickly backfill the
vacancies. While the delta in performance between
Class A and other retail product is widening—
particularly for malls, all shopping center types are
affected – including the relatively stable
neighborhood and community centers which typically
comprise a necessity- and service-oriented tenant
mix.
Cooling Temperatures
Occupancy growth has continued for non-mall
shopping centers overall, although the pace has
notably cooled from the post-recession average. Net
absorption reached nearly 5.7 million square feet
(msf) in the third quarter of 2018, bringing the YTD
total to 16.2 msf. This compares to 19.9 msf in the first
three quarters of 2017 and 29.7 msf over the same
period in 2016. The Pacific and Mountain regions
account for 45% of the YTD demand with net
absorption totaling 3.9 msf and 3.6 msf, respectively,
for first three quarters. Houston and Phoenix have the
strongest YTD occupancy growth of all individual
markets with a combined total of nearly 2.9 msf.

A recent report by IHL Group indicates store
openings are outnumbering closures in 2018, with
an estimated positive net gain of 3,835 stores
nationally. . . .
The vacancy rate for non-mall shopping centers
ended the third quarter of 2018 at 6.5%, unchanged
from the previous quarter, but down from 6.7% at
year-end 2017. The Pacific and Northeast regions both
have vacancy rates under 6.0%, led by Boston and
San Jose which boast the lowest shopping center
vacancy rates in the nation at just 3.4% and 3.8%,
respectively. Raleigh/Durham, Miami and Charleston
follow closely, all with vacancy rates of 3.9%.
Construction activity in the retail marketplace is
adjusting to the weaker demand. At the close of the
third quarter of 2018, only 11.4 msf of new inventory
had been delivered YTD across the U.S. This year’s
quarterly average of 3.8 msf of new supply falls well
behind the 5.5 msf quarterly average the market has
maintained since 2010. In addition, 16.9 msf remains
under construction at the end of the quarter, a 10%
decline from the development activity one year ago
and a 36% decline from the third quarter of 2016. New
shopping center inventory delivered in 2018 is led by
Houston (1.1 msf), Dallas (nearly 1.0 msf) and the New
York Metro/Greater Tri-State area (approximately
913,000 square feet (sf)), all of which are among the
top three MSAs for residential growth, according to
the U.S. Census Bureau and Moody’s Analytics. Going
forward, much of the retail development activity will
be focused on mixed-use projects with substantial
housing, office, medical and/or hospitality where
retail plays a crucial role as a necessary amenity.
The majority of the occupancy growth year-to-date
has taken place among neighborhood/community
centers. Net absorption for this sector totaled 11.8 msf
for the first three quarters of 2018. The vacancy rate
for neighborhood/community centers declined to
7.1% in the third quarter of this year, down ten basis
points (bps) from the previous quarter and down
from 7.4% at year-end 2017. Occupancy among power
centers reflects the estimated closures of 800 Toys R
Us stores, with negative absorption of almost -1.1 msf
since June 2018. This brought the vacancy rate back
up to 5.0% in the third quarter of 2018, identical to
the year-end 2017 figure. However, year-to-date net
absorption in the power center sector remains
positive for 2018—at 586,589 sf—and there are a
handful of mid-to-big-box tenants in expansion mode,
particularly among fitness/health, and entertainment
and off-price categories.
Secular Challenges
The top contraction categories continue to be
department and apparel stores, which are typically
concentrated in malls. Drug stores also fell into the
consolidation column this year, largely due to the
expected closings of 600 redundant store locations
resulting from Walgreens’ purchase of 1,932 Rite Aid
stores in 2017. Grocery stores, however—particularly
those of the discount, organic or ethnic variety—
continue to expand and have an ideal size
requirement to fill these drug store vacancies, as do
superstores that are expanding with a smaller-
focused footprint.
Restaurants remain in expansion mode, but plans are
tapering off after eight years of robust growth across
the sector. According to IHL Group’s findings, more
retail locations are opening in 2018 than restaurants, a
flip from 2017 when restaurant openings outpaced
retail openings three to one.
Dollar stores, discounters and off-price apparel
concepts also continue aggressive growth. Value is a
top deciding factor for purchases, especially when
most shoppers have a price comparison tool at their
fingertips. What started as a necessity during the
recession years, remains a priority for most
consumers today, and the treasure hunt aspect of
off-price shopping creates an experience that draws
customers to physical stores.

Approaching the Seasonal Finale
Heading into the fourth quarter, bricks-and-mortar
retail will see traffic pick up; according to ICSC, 84%
of holiday shoppers plan to visit shopping centers to
make purchases and for other activities. The National
Retail Federation predicts another strong holiday
season with sales growth in the range of 4.3%-to-
4.8%. While this is lower than the increase in 2017, it
will still outpace the 3.9% average of the last five
years.
Pop-up store activity will fill some of the vacancies in
the marketplace during the fourth quarter of 2018. We
estimate that roughly 90% of temporary storefront
activity is still driven by holiday season pop-up
tenants, whether in the form of Halloween-themed
party and costume stores or holiday-themed food and
gift concepts. Although these shops may move the
vacancy needle by a basis point or two nationally in
the last half of the year, the effect will be minimal and
temporary.
Outlook
• Demand drivers are reaching saturation for
some key concepts. Opportunities for strategic
players will arise.
• Flow of tenants from power centers will shake
up the economics of retail leasing and give new
non-traditional or “discounter” flavor to Class B
malls.
• Mixed-use development and redevelopment
will be the story of retail real estate for the
foreseeable future.
