Spinoso: What’s the New Formula for Enclosed Malls?

by SCB Staff June 21, 2019

Malls are not dead, but the formula has certainly changed, notes Carmen Spinoso, CEO of Spinoso Real Estate Group. That’s because there is no formula any longer when it comes to these assets. The one-size-fits-all approach no longer works, but that doesn’t mean winning strategies can’t be found. These strategies, Spinoso asserts, vary based on demographics, consumer profiles, existing retailers and competition within the market. He believes today’s strategy is part art and part science, but reinvigorating these spaces can be done. Spinoso is in the middle of two such …

Moonbeam: A Portfolio that Specializes in Alternative Uses

Maksin and his team have had great success introducing everything from DMVs to creative offices, police academies, colleges and medical users …

by SCB Staff June 21, 2019

There are two big threats to retail that nearly every landlord is trying to avoid: sales lost to online shopping and shoppers lost due to a recession. It may be impossible to completely fend off an attack from either, but Jon Wheeler, CEO of Pinnacle Real Estate Investment Group, has a strategy for minimizing both. Wheeler is a big believer in grocery-anchored shopping centers in secondary and tertiary markets. He prefers stabilized (as opposed to value-add) assets with quality grocers and a variety of necessity- and service-based retailers, such as …

Bialow: Retailers Want to Be in Shopping Centers if Landlords Can Provide a Welcoming Space

by SCB Staff June 14, 2019

Corey Bialow, CEO of Bialow Real Estate, is extremely optimistic about this next phase of retail. As a tenant representative, he has seen this sentiment shared throughout industry events like RECon, and among his clients.
