Accounting for Uncertainty Virtual CPE Series: Real Estate Breakout: Retail Real Estate Reimagined

Retail real estate continues its pivot in response to rapid market changes. The sector outlook is at best uncertain. Retail lease payment defaults due to tenant financial challenges are at the highest rates in decades—leaving landlords with little recourse against non-paying tenants. COVID further accelerated the shift to online retail, reducing demand for physical retail space. Prior to COVID, retail property owners responded to the pressure on brick-and-mortar retail by securing “experiential” tenants where the draw for an in-person consumer shopping visit provided some protection against online competition. Experiential businesses remain those most disrupted by the pandemic.
