E173 • Jul 2, 2025 • 14 mins

In this episode, Steve Hamoen delves into grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping centers, focusing on performance metrics, anchor tenants, and financial stability from an investor's perspective. He explores the impact of e-commerce on retail and dividend growth, highlighting Mayhugh Commercial Advisors' success in Lee County. The discussion includes legislative changes, such as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and tax code updates, and examines Faropoint and Mapletree Investments' strategies. Steve also covers industrial and cross-border real estate trends in North America and the senior housing sector's recovery and future outlook, concluding with closing remarks and thanks.

Key Points

  • Grocery-anchored retail centers, such as those operated by Phillips Edison & Company, demonstrate resilience due to their focus on necessity-based tenants like grocery stores and pharmacies, resulting in high occupancy and tenant retention rates even during economic downturns.
  • Mayhugh Commercial Advisors' success in closing over 75 transactions in Lee County highlights the effectiveness of combining traditional brokerage methods with cutting-edge technology to drive business growth and investor confidence in the commercial real estate market.
  • The senior housing sector in the United States has shown a steady recovery from the pandemic, with vacancy rates nearing pre-pandemic levels, supported by demographic trends and improved desirability of communal living, despite challenges related to supply constraints and high interest rates.
