We see strong moves happening in the retail real estate side of things. While increasing rents are causing some hesitation among investors, we see a slowdown in new retail construction due to the high costs of building these days which balances out the increases in rents. A few recent headlines that support the strength of retail real estate these days: ++ Retail real estate investment hit $28.5B in the first half of 2025. ++ Simon Property Group, the biggest mall owner in America, just raised $1.5B ++ Amazon announced plans to expand same-day grocery delivery to 2,300 cities by the end of 2025
So overall, we are very bullish on retail real estate with a cautious eye for over-inflated rents that would pose risk in the future. If you wanted to keep up to date on retail real estate news, we have a LinkedIn Newsletter you can subscribe to. As we do every week, we took time and reviewed all the commercial listings that came on the market and curated this hand-picked list representing the top opportunities we identified as the best value.
