This year’s annual retail report highlights the trends and activity seen across the Kansas City Metro’s real estate landscape. As with so many things in our hyper-competitive economy, technology is forcing retail to become leaner and more efficient. The challenge for retailers, investors, developers and cities alike is sorting out the successful ideas from the “too little too late.” Looking forward to 2019, we’ll watch the major economic indicators with the rest of the country, and expect our retail market to hold steady.

The Rising Cost of Construction and Why You Should Care
Mattie Crossland, Project Manager
Over the course of 2016, the retail real estate market, both locally and nationally, saw a continuance of the caution and conservative growth that has become common over the last handful of years. Retailers and developers alike are moving a little more slowly than pre-recession, and practicing particularly careful evaluation of projects before moving forward.
Looking forward to 2017, LANE4 anticipates another year of rapidly changing trends and technology and a market adjusting to keep up.

Highlights of our report include:
The trend identified last year, a flight to quality, is continuing apace. The best quality centers are filling vacancies and maintaining proforma rents better than during the past several years.
Owners of troubled secondary centers may continue to hold on if they have large cash equity positions and/or long-term stable financing. However, even historically low interest rates cannot save owners who need to refinance “at-risk” centers. Retailers who demand only A+ real estate are now stymied by lack of available space and are pushing lease rates to pre-recession levels and sometimes generate build-to-suit and redevelopment opportunities.
We predict a sizeable number of secondary centers will return to lender control in 2012.
Highlights of our report include:
The theme for 2010 retail is flight to quality, the best positioned and the most attractive centers still command nearly pre-recession lease rates, and this theme will continue on into 2011.
After several decades of consolidation and better efficiencies, retailers and landlords offering value and convenience seem to be the clear winners.
