ICSC Recon 2017 Reveals Retail Investors are Cautious Yet Optimistic

Posted on July 06, 2017

Orion Real Estate Group’s executives recently joined the thousands of professionals who gathered in Las Vegas for the International Council of Shopping Centers’ (ICSC) Recon 2017 convention. The annual event is the largest conference in the retail real estate industry, where experts address trends and close billions of dollars in deals.

A key concern voiced by many attendees was the current state of retail space, which had been struggling in recent years and is in the midst of evolving to meet changing consumer demands.  The conference program reflected this shift, as well as the expectation that the supply and demand equation for retail space may be changing. Property sellers and investors with flexible investment plans and the aid of knowledgeable experts who can identify properties that are well-vetted, researched and disciplined will be better able to adjust to and accommodate for these changing market cycles.

The professionals with Orion Real Estate Group work with investors, developers, property owners and brokers through all phases of real estate transactions, from strategic planning and analysis to financing, negotiation, property management and disposition.
