Grocery-anchored properties resilient despite economic turmoil
Mid-America Real Estate Principals Joe Girardi and Rick Drogosz were exclusive brokers for the seller. Earlier this month, the firm brokered another grocery-anchored property deal, the 74,182-square-foot Cliff Lake Centre, on behalf of DRA Advisors.
Last year, the majority of retail investment activity took place in major cities such as New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago, as shown by Matthews‘ end-of-year market report. Additionally, the report indicated that 47.3 million square feet of retail space had been completed, with over 250 million square feet of retail space leased, during the same period.
The grocery stores, discount stores, restaurants, big-box retailers and strip center sectors are predicted to do well, according to the report. However, due to rising inflation, commercial real estate investors are revising their market strategies.
