?????? ???????? ???? ???????????????? ???? ???????????? ?????????????? Office leasing activity saw an 11.5% year-over-year increase in Q3 2024, but here’s the real story: 41% of leasing activity was renewals—a significant jump from pre-pandemic averages of 31%. What’s driving this? Many tenants are opting to stay put, capitalizing on landlord concessions like tenant improvement allowances and free rent periods. This has kept effective rent growth in check, especially for Class B/C properties. But here’s another question to consider: Are tenants truly maximizing their space, or do they fully understand how their current space is being utilized? With hybrid work models and shifting office needs, knowing how your space supports productivity and employee engagement is critical. If you’re navigating office lease decisions, the current market could be an opportunity. Are landlords in your area offering creative incentives? Are you leveraging insights into space utilization to make your decisions? I’d love to hear your thoughts. ????

Shout out to Emma Callahan for organizing a great group and conversation that brought on a lot of insightful commentary around the challenges and adoption of technology in Commercial Real Estate.

?? Apologies for the delay—event season has been in full swing! I’m excited to share insights from a recent webinar where industry leaders shared their thoughts on the challenges and opportunities of technology adoption in Commercial Real Estate (CRE). Panelists from AVUITY, Savills North America, Cherre, and RealtyAds provided valuable perspectives on navigating tech adoption in the CRE space. ?? ?? Tyler Vermette, VP of Sales at Avuity highlighted the influx of new technologies in the market, emphasizing the importance of aligning tech solutions with a company’s success criteria and operationalizing deployments across real estate teams. Often with limited resources, leaning on experienced providers for support is key. ?? Soufian Alsabbagh, Director of Cross Border Advisory, Americas at Savills addressed the complexity of rolling out tech across large global organizations, such as his 40,000-person company. Achieving adoption across different cultures, age groups, and systems is a challenge, but with rising client demand for tech solutions, it's a must. ?? Kevin Shtofman, Global Head of Innovation at Cherre focused on three core business goals: increasing revenue, reducing costs, or lowering risks. Solutions must clearly achieve at least one of these goals to gain traction, and buy-in from internal IT teams is critical to successful deployment. ?? Matt Newville, VP of Growth from Realty Ads built on this by noting that many CRE owners are wary of new solutions due to past overpromises. For PropTech to succeed, companies need to communicate clearly how they solve real problems and add measurable value. It was a great discussion about PropTech challenges and how startups can align with traditional CRE needs! ?? ?? Watch the clip below to hear more! Thank you again to the panelists! It was a pleasure having you on the webinar and learning all of your insights from the industry. #PropTech #CRE #Innovation #WebinarRecap #RealEstateTechnology #EventSeason
