MIAMI—A new report on retail real estate offers some telling signs for 2017 and beyond. Authored by Crossman & Company, the Spring 2017 Southeast US Market Report on Retail Real Estate explores key topics in the retail industry.

“This report is the result of a considerable amount of effort from our research department and the many outstanding relationships that we enjoy throughout the country,” says Crossman president John Crossman. “Our partnerships with universities, trade organizations and many industry leaders lend a unique and dynamic perspective to this in-depth report.”

Crossman identified the 37 of the top markets in the Southeast. Of those 37, they took an in-depth look at the five investment grade markets. The result is called the “Top 5 Deep Dive.” The remaining 32 markets are grouped by state, and the states are listed alphabetically. (Here's what teen retailers need to know.)

“One of the interesting insights found that as conventional retailers embrace an online presence, e-retailers are recognizing the advantages brick and mortar provides in the customer experience,” says Chandan Economics Analyst Jonathan O'Kane. “The convergence has led to increased demand for space in well-positioned malls and lifestyle /entertainment centers, especially within the urban core.”

In addition to reporting fundamental market metrics, Crossman highlights major developments, touches on tenant activity, and updates on the infrastructure of the biggest metropolitan areas in the Southeast: Atlanta, Charlotte, Miami-Dade County, Orlando, and Tampa. (Check out retail banking's evolution in this Crossman report.)

“We are feeling cautiously optimistic about 2017,” says Ross Cooper, executive vice president and Chief Investment Officer for Kimco Realty. “We are watching the market dynamics of rising interest rates and potential inflation very closely. In the meantime, Kimco is in the “sweet spot” of retail: our traditional tenant base of value and discount-oriented, everyday goods and services is enjoying positive trends and sales growth.”

Crossman organized data from a variety of sources and reported them in an easy-to-navigate infographic, with quotes from industry leaders in those markets. The report offers numerous insights into retail real estate trends.

The report includes interviews followed by editorial articles on capital markets, retail in Florida, and trends shaping 2017. The report comes on the heels of Crossman announcing it has expanded to Mississippi.
