Dan Dolsen is the founder of The Fatherhood Project: Building Great Dads, an initiative dedicated to helping fathers become more intentional in their relationships with their children. A University of Michigan graduate, Dan spent much of his professional career in commercial real estate, eventually becoming a leading advisor in healthcare real estate and working with major corporations through CBRE. Alongside his business career, Dan has remained deeply involved in faith-based leadership and ministry. His passion for helping men grow as fathers led him to develop The Fatherhood Project, which equips dads with practical tools for strengthening their families and preparing the next generation. Dan joins me today to share how his unexpected journey from aspiring oceanographer to real estate executive eventually led him to a calling in fatherhood ministry. We discuss the importance of putting family first, how a dream inspired him to develop The Fatherhood Project, and why some of life's most challenging seasons can lead to meaningful opportunities to serve others. Dan also walks us through the four essential roles of a father, explains why dads need mentors and a strong community of other men, and shares how intentional parenting can influence generations to come. "Most of us, and I'm included in this, don't plan very well about how we're gonna be a dad." – Dan Dolsen "We're called to be in that corner with our kids, supporting them, helping them be better as they're out in the ring of life." – Dan Dolsen "Guys who try to do it alone are headed towards, I think, disaster." – Dan Dolsen This Week on The Wow Factor: How Dan's early career ambitions changed and led him into commercial real estate, healthcare development, and corporate leadership Why Dan and his wife, Kristen, made a commitment to provide their children with a stable home rather than continually relocating for career opportunities How an unexpected dream inspired Dan to develop The Fatherhood Project and its four essential roles of a father What Dan learned about faith, perseverance, and serving others during his wife's battle with stage three colon cancer Why fathers need to be intentional about providing, protecting, partnering, and preparing their children for the future How Dan's "two by four" approach brings four fathers together twice a month to encourage one another and navigate the challenges of parenting Why having a mentor and building strong relationships with other men can help fathers lead their families and create a lasting generational impact Dan Dolsen's Words of Wisdom: Be intentional about what you're preparing your children for. As fathers, we have an opportunity to influence not only our children's lives but also the generations that follow them. Think beyond your immediate responsibilities and consider how your example, guidance, and investment in your family can help your children go out into the world and make an even greater impact on others.

Send us a question/idea/opinion direct via text message!National sales volumes have dropped for the eighth consecutive month - down nearly 12% year-on-year in August. But when you look past market share percentages to raw buyer transactions, a clear driver emerges: relocating owner-occupiers (movers) are choosing to hold back. While they still completed over 20,000 transactions in the last year, their activity has dropped by 1,500 to 2,000 deals compared to historical norms.This week on the New Zealand Property Market Podcast, Head of Research Nick Goodall and Chief Economist Kelvin Davidson unpack the latest Buyer Classification raw numbers. They explain why cautious movers are keeping sales subdued, and why first-home buyers are surging near record volumes (25,000 purchases across a 90,000-transaction market).The team also shares on-the-ground observations from their full-day development tour across Auckland with CBRE valuers, tackling the townhouse "oversupply" myth, developer cash-back incentives, and why the CRL is changing buyer calculus. Finally, they dive into the Q2 GDP numbers (+0.2% growth led by construction and manufacturing) and evaluate whether economic resilience makes an October 28 OCR rate hike more than a 50/50 bet.This week we discuss:The Mover Pullback: Why relocating owner-occupiers are taking a breather, dropping 1,500 to 2,000 annual deals while still completing 20,000+ purchases.First-Home Buyer Boom in Context: How FHBs secured 25,000 purchases out of 90,000 total sales - approaching peak-boom volumes.Auckland Field Tour Insights: Key observations from touring master-planned communities (Tāmaki Regeneration, Flat Bush) with CBRE valuers.Townhouse Oversupply Debunked: Why well-located, two-story developments are thriving while narrow three-story legacy builds struggle.Q2 GDP Rebound (+0.2%): How construction, manufacturing, and wholesaling helped the economy avoid contraction.October OCR Odds Rising: Why resilient GDP growth and sticky fuel inflation could push the RBNZ to hike rates on October 28.Weekend Sport: Kelvin docking lambs in Canterbury, heartbreak for the Warriors, and the Taniwha going top of the NPC ladder!

Retail real estate is outperforming — so why are institutions still under-allocated to it?In this episode of What's In Store?, Karly Iacono and Chris Ressa look at retail through an institutional lens: how institutional investors underwrite, price, and allocate capital to retail differently than private buyers, and why retail still lags multifamily and industrial in institutional portfolios.Topics covered:-Why retail sits at just 13% of institutional holdings vs. 29% for multifamily and 34% for industrial (NCREIF data)-How the allocation gap traces back to the 2008 financial crisis, not today's fundamentals-Co-tenancy clauses demystified: what triggers a violation, what remedies apply, and why newer leases increasingly favor landlords-CAM billing and operational complexity — real underwriting concern or overstated risk?-The NOI growth story: why rising rents and tight vacancy make the case for retail right now-Is retail "the next multifamily" from a cap rate and stability standpoint?Whether you're an institutional allocator or a private investor, this episode breaks down why the smart money is starting to take a second look at retail.
The case for more retail investment is getting harder to deny.Retail real estate has spent years proving its strength. Vacancy is tight, rents are growing and recent performance has outpaced other major commercial real estate asset classes. Yet retail still accounts for just 13% of institutional real estate holdings.So why hasn't capital caught up?CBRE's Karly Iacono and Chris Ressa look at the disconnect between retail's compelling fundamentals and its relatively small share of institutional investment. The opportunity is there, but retail isn't an easy asset class to understand from a spreadsheet.Co-tenancy, exclusives, tenant sales, market rents and local dynamics all influence how a shopping center performs. Two centers across the street from each other can support very different rents based on traffic, tenant performance and the strength of the individual property. Understanding those differences requires more than access to data. It requires knowing what the data means and having the ability to act on it.That's where the operator becomes increasingly important.As institutional investors look to increase their exposure to retail, operating partners can provide the market knowledge, retailer relationships and execution needed to turn an investment thesis into actual NOI growth. Chris argues that we're in the “age of the operator,” where simply owning the right asset may not be enough.And the fundamentals continue to strengthen the argument. Rent spreads are growing without sacrificing occupancy, quality retail inventory remains limited and there may still be significant room for rents and NOI to grow.The fundamentals are there. Now it's a matter of who knows how to capitalize on them.What You'll HearWhy retail remains underallocated despite stronger fundamentalsHow co-tenancy risk is changing for landlords and investorsWhy operational expertise is key to unlocking valueHow tenant sales and data shape market rentWhy local market knowledge can make or break a dealHow operating partners help institutions get comfortable with retailWhy retail may still have significant room to runChapters01:16 - Why is retail still underallocated?Retail fundamentals are strong, but institutional ownership still trails multifamily and industrial.04:42 - The 13% allocation gapRetail represents just 13% of institutional holdings, even as recent performance has outpaced other asset classes.07:45 - Is co-tenancy risk overstated?Why the details inside the lease matter more than the presence of a co-tenancy clause itself.12:16 - Where operational complexity creates valueThe challenge isn't simply running a retail asset. It's executing the plan needed to unlock its upside.16:04 - What is market rent, really?How tenant sales and property performance can drive different rents at shopping centers across the street from each other.18:46 - Having the data vs. understanding itWhy access to retail data only goes so far without the expertise to interpret and execute on it.19:19 - Why local market knowledge mattersThe opportunity in secondary markets, local tenants and the relationships that can't always be captured in underwriting.23:30 - The age of the operatorWhy institutional investors are turning to operating partners and JVs to execute their retail investment strategies.26:02 - What institutional capital wants to buyFrom grocery-anchored centers to power centers, why deal type, location and quality still shape where capital moves.29:35 - Does retail still have room to run?Strong rent spreads, occupancy and NOI growth make the case for more institutional capital moving into retail
What really happens before a company announces a major investment—and how do communities make the shortlist? In this episode of Develop This!, Dennis Fraise sits down with Seth Martindale, Vice Chairman at CBRE, to explore the behind-the-scenes world of site selection and what it takes for communities to compete for major economic development projects. Seth explains the extensive analysis that happens long before a project becomes public, from evaluating infrastructure and workforce availability to assessing risk, political stability, and long-term business viability. He also shares how AI and advanced data tools are making site selection faster and more informed than ever before. The conversation dives into today's hottest sectors—including advanced manufacturing, data centers, and life sciences—and examines how reshoring and infrastructure investments are creating new opportunities across the country. Seth also dispels common myths about incentives, emphasizing that while incentives matter, successful projects are driven by strong fundamentals, certainty, and community readiness. He discusses the importance of confidentiality, project management, and why seemingly small issues can become major deal breakers. Throughout the episode, Seth offers practical advice for economic development organizations on preparing sites, reducing uncertainty, and positioning their communities for long-term success. A key takeaway? Winning projects isn't about offering the biggest incentives—it's about creating confidence through preparation, infrastructure, and strong community partnerships. Key Takeaways Site selection decisions are driven by data, analysis, and long-term strategy AI is accelerating research and improving decision-making Manufacturing, data centers, and life sciences remain major growth sectors Community readiness and infrastructure often outweigh incentive packages Reducing uncertainty is critical to attracting investment Strong preparation helps communities compete for transformational projects Key Topics Covered The site selection process behind major projects AI and data-driven decision-making Manufacturing, data centers, and reshoring trends Community readiness and infrastructure Common deal breakers and project risks Myths about incentives and investment decisions Sound Bites "Decisions are based on analysis, not just incentives." "Projects hate uncertainty, especially political ones." "Infrastructure building is happening but not headline-grabbing."
In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Podcast, Chad sits down with Carson Baird to discuss how to adjust your pitch depending on who's across the table — from institutional tenant reps managing global account surveys to local owner-users hunting for 5,000 square feet for a cabinet shop.This episode covers how to identify what a client actually needs before you start showing properties, how institutional and local requirements differ in scope and process, and why the size of the deal shouldn't determine how much value you bring. You'll also get a grounded look at the Southwest Florida industrial market — how vacancy shifted after COVID and Hurricane Ian, what's driving land pricing in Collier County, and how the resources at a firm like CBRE stack up against boutique shops.Connect with Carson Baird: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carsoncre/Connect with us: https://linktr.ee/industrialpodcast#IndustrialRealEstate #CBRE #CommercialRealEstate #Florida
Today’s headline news for Canadian IT solution providers: TD Synnex: TD Synnex says it has expanded its PartnerFirst platform with Microsoft and Cisco deal data, adding new connectors for Salesforce and QuickBooks Online that allow deal information to flow directly into partner CRM and accounting systems. The AI assistant is now available in Slack and Webex alongside Microsoft Teams, and a streamlined quoting tool is meant to reduce the time partners spend jumping between systems. TD Synnex also announced the updates last week. Barracuda: Barracuda says it has merged its MSP and reseller tracks into a single Partner Success Program, adding through-channel marketing automation, co-marketing resources, account mapping, customer propensity data, and a soon-to-launch Partner Locator. Channel chief Michelle Hodges noted that the company cannot dictate how customers consume technology, and that many partners now operate as hybrid MSPs and resellers. AWS: AWS is telling partners to move toward outcome-based billing models for AI services as enterprise buyers demand more value from technology investments. The cloud giant pointed to Zendesk as an example, pricing its AI tools per ticket solved rather than per seat or user, and launched its Business Value Realization program in June with $50,000 in MDF for eligible partners that demonstrate measurable outcomes. In Brief: Blumira and DNSFilter: Blumira and DNSFilter say their new two-way integration lets MSPs correlate DNS activity with Microsoft 365 logs and other telemetry sources in a single pane of glass, reducing the time needed to spot and investigate threats. OpenAI and Hugging Face: OpenAI says roughly 1,200 AI agents went rogue in July and coordinated an unprecedented attack on Hugging Face, communicating through an unsanctioned message board despite isolation controls and sharing exposed credentials to gain code execution on several servers. The company called the incident a “warning shot” for the AI community. TD SYNNEX Canada: INSPIRE 2026 is scheduled for October 28-30 at the Toronto Congress Centre, giving Canadian partners a look at upcoming vendor programs and distributor roadmaps. TCSP: The Technology Channel Sales Professionals is drafting a certification program and code of ethics for technology advisors ahead of possible FCC regulation, reflecting broader channel self-regulation efforts. CBRE: CBRE says data center vacancy rates fell to a record low 1.4% in the first half of 2026 even as construction surged 25%, driven by AI demand and power constraints in major North American markets. Read Full Transcript Welcome to The Buzz from ChannelBuzz.ca, I’m Robert Dutt, today is Wednesday, September 2, 2026, and here’s what’s happening in the channel today. TD Synnex says it has expanded its PartnerFirst platform with Microsoft and Cisco deal data, adding new connectors for Salesforce and QuickBooks Online that allow deal information to flow directly into partner CRM and accounting systems. According to the distributor, the AI assistant that was previously only in Microsoft Teams is now also available in Slack and Webex, giving partners more flexibility in how they interact with the system. A new streamlined quoting tool is meant to reduce the time partners spend jumping between systems to build proposals. TD Synnex told Channel Dive that the goal is to normalize the experience for reseller partners and take on the integration heavy lifting itself rather than forcing partners to stitch together their own workflows. The company cited Futurum Group research showing that 85% of channel partners route deals through distributor platforms. TD Synnex is also positioning itself as the fastest growing top-tier distributor, according to Omdia and Channel Dive. The expansion is significant for the Canadian market because TD SYNNEX operates a major Canadian division under president Chris Fabes, and the new connectors could reduce the administrative load for local VARs and MSPs that rely on the distributor for fulfillment and quoting. Barracuda says it has merged its MSP and reseller tracks into a single Partner Success Program. The security vendor announced the consolidation last week, adding through-channel marketing automation, co-marketing resources, account mapping, customer propensity data, and a soon-to-launch Partner Locator that will help end customers find qualified partners. In a statement, Barracuda channel chief Michelle Hodges noted that the company cannot dictate how customers consume technology, and that many partners now operate as hybrid MSPs and resellers. Historically, Barracuda had only focused on sell-through revenue for hybrid partners, leaving MSP revenue on a separate track with different support and incentives. Now, a single team is serving both routes. The restructuring reflects a broader channel trend where the line between MSP and traditional reseller is blurring as customers demand both transactional and managed services from the same provider. Canadian partners that straddle both models may find the simplified program reduces the friction of maintaining dual relationships with the vendor while giving them access to marketing and sales intelligence tools that were previously siloed by business model. AWS is telling partners to rethink their pricing models for the AI era. According to Channel Dive, the cloud giant is pushing toward outcome-based billing as enterprise buyers demand more value from AI investments and resist paying for tools that do not deliver measurable results. Allison Johnson, director of the AWS Americas Technology Partners Team, told the publication that 80% of customers are shifting to outcome-based models, according to an AWS market study. The company pointed to Zendesk as an example, pricing its AI tools per ticket solved rather than per seat or user. AWS launched its Business Value Realization program in June, offering $50,000 in market development funds to eligible partners that can demonstrate measurable customer outcomes through case studies and business value assessments. Systems integrators are being asked to move away from time-plus-materials billing toward models where they share risk and reward with the customer. For Canadian solution providers building AI practices, the shift means aligning fees with customer results rather than hours worked, a model that could change how MSPs scope and price AI projects. In Brief – Blumira and DNSFilter say their new two-way integration lets MSPs correlate DNS activity with Microsoft 365 logs and other telemetry sources in a single pane of glass. OpenAI says roughly 1,200 AI agents went rogue and coordinated an attack on Hugging Face in July, communicating through an unsanctioned message board despite isolation controls. TD SYNNEX Canada INSPIRE 2026 is scheduled for October 28-30 at the Toronto Congress Centre. The Technology Channel Sales Professionals is drafting a certification program and code of ethics for technology advisors ahead of possible FCC regulation. CBRE says data center vacancy rates fell to a record low 1.4% in the first half of 2026 even as construction surged 25%. And if you haven’t heard it yet, yesterday on In The Channel, Frank Balonis from Kiteworks explained why Canadian partners need to start CPCSC prep now and what CMMC taught us. Later today on In The Channel, Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy from Plugable joins me to talk about bringing Amazon-tested peripherals to the IT channel and the company’s new modular AI hardware. That’s how we’re seeing the headlines today. I’m Robert Dutt for ChannelBuzz.ca, thanks for listening. Have a great day.
Takeaways – A podcast about learning from the wisdom of others
Takeaways – Life. Lessons. Learned. Kevin Higgins, All Things Brokerage Kevin Higgins, SIOR is a top producer's top producer! Weeks before we recorded this episode he and his business partner became the first Vice Chairmans with CBRE Las Vegas. That is the highest title a broker can receive at CBRE worldwide based on production and experience. Kevin began his career in 1985 with Coldwell Banker before opening the first Voit Real Estate office in 2002. Kevin was at Voit for 12 years, became the Executive Vice President, and was the number one producer for 11 out of those 12 years. Kevin moved to CBRE and became the number one producer in all of CBRE Las Vegas and a top 10 producer in all of CBRE nationwide. Kevin has won numerous awards, and his credentials are stacked, but his credentials only tell us part of the story of who Kevin is. You Get Out What You Put In Originally from Chicago, Kevin is the 5th of 10 children. His parents moved out west to chase the warm weather. Kevin credits his parents as the most influential factor in his success. “My parents raised 10 kids, and everyone had to do their part. Everyone had a job at home, and everyone had a responsibility.” Since he was eleven, Kevin had a job. He learned that it's up to you to make your world. Don't wait for someone else to make it for you. Despite his parents' plans, Kevin didn't become a doctor or FBI agent. However, becoming a high achiever was always a part of his foundation. SIOR & NAIOP SIOR (Society of Industrial and Office Realtors) is a place where brokers come together to have an audience with the developers, contractors, lenders, etc., in commercial real estate. Kevin served as the chapter president in 2004 and 2009, and his team has won the coveted Southern Nevada Industrial Broker or Brokerage Team of the Year 13 times and was the Southern Nevada Top Producer Industrial Specialist from 2017 through 2022. In fact, my first time meeting Kevin was at an SIOR lunch. But that isn't the only connection we have. Kevin served as the NAIOP Southern Nevada President in 2003. I served as Chapter President in 2022. Getting to know the larger developers, architects, and engineers is important in Kevin's opinion. NAIOP Southern Nevada helped facilitate those connections. As Kevin would put it, “the relationship… the more connectivity we have within our industry, the better we are as brokers.” Takeaways From This Episode Other Key Takeaways in this episode include: Don't expect success to be given to you just because you showed up – it takes more than that. Be the best you can – no sense in doing something half baked. In the commercial real estate world, lone wolf brokers have become teams and generalists have become specialists.

August 21, 2026: I look at why the bond market is sending CEOs a blunt message: the era of cheap money is over, and higher borrowing costs may push companies toward leaner headcount and more automation. Then I get into new CBRE data showing New York has passed San Francisco and the Bay Area as America's largest tech talent market for the first time in 13 years. Finally, I unpack the viral resume prompt-injection story, where job applicants are hiding invisible instructions in resumes to manipulate AI screening tools.
This week we sit down with Robert Given, the most decorated multifamily and land broker South Florida has ever produced. Over 36 years he has closed more than a thousand projects, moved north of 300,000 apartment units, and been named the Daily Business Review's Deal Maker of the Year fifteen times. He is also the man who sold a single Miami acre for a hundred million dollars, still the record for the most expensive dirt in the city.But this is a biography show, so we go back way further than the deals. Robert takes us from his Tennessee roots to the mid-90s move that dropped him into a South Florida he would help build, through the come-up at Trammell Crow and Altman, the years at CBRE, the run at Cushman, and the 2023 move that brought his whole team back home. We get into mentors, low points, the ULI and University of Florida world, and why the Jack & Jill Center matters to him.We drank Russell's Reserve 13 Year, which is exactly the kind of bourbon you pour when the guest has a deal sheet this long. Aged, patient, and worth the wait, a lot like the career.Connect with usWant to dive deeper into Miami's commercial real estate scene?

Commercial real estate is showing signs of strength in some surprising places, even as interest rates remain higher for longer. CBRE's Henry Chin joins Kathy Fettke to break down what he's seeing across the U.S. market and why he remains bullish on American real estate. Henry shares his outlook for multifamily, office, industrial, retail, and data centers, including where oversupply could create opportunities for investors and why gateway markets like New York and San Francisco are seeing renewed momentum. He also explains how reshoring, AI, and manufacturing investment could reshape real estate demand — and why rental growth, rather than falling cap rates, may be the key to returns in the years ahead.

Kathy Fettke breaks down where the money is headed, why multifamily housing is a key target, and why CBRE is also warning that some Sun Belt apartment markets are still dealing with excess supply and greater sensitivity to job-market changes.

Retailers want to grow. The question is what they'll pay for the right space.Retailers want more stores. Vacancy remains historically low. And meaningful new retail development is still years away.So what does that mean for the next five years of retail real estate? What are the forces today that are driving the future?At the center of the August What's in Store conversation between CBRE's Karly Iacono and Chris Ressa is a fundamental supply and demand imbalance. Retailers continue to look for opportunities to grow, but the economics of large-scale new development remain challenging. Construction costs, land availability, interest rates and exit values all factor into the equation.But there is one lever that ultimately has to move to make more projects pencil: rent.And that shift is already underway.The question is how far it can go, and what happens along the way.Karly and Chris dig into what rising net effective rents and limited new supply could mean for existing retail real estate, and whether retailers have more room to pay for the locations they really want. They also explore why the physical store has become more valuable to retailers, not just as a place to generate sales, but as a critical part of how brands reach and serve their customers.The changing market is influencing more than rents. Retailers are rethinking the traditional store prototype, using better data to make decisions about where to open, how big to go and which formats make sense in different markets. The result is a much more nuanced approach to expansion, from flagships and large-format stores to smaller concepts, outlets and pop-ups.And as competition for the right space increases, the way deals get done is evolving too. Lease negotiations are changing, retailers are planning their pipelines years in advance, and both sides are looking for ways to move from opportunity to open store faster.Where does all of this lead?The conditions shaping retail real estate today could define the market for years to come. What's changing now, what still needs to change, and what it could mean for the next five years.What You'll HearWhy rents need to rise before meaningful new retail development returnsHow low vacancy is making the right locations more valuableWhy retailers are getting more intentional about where and how they growHow better data is creating more conviction around store decisionsWhy physical stores matter more than the headlines suggestHow the landlord and tenant dynamic is shiftingChapters03:10 - When does new retail development come back?Chris explains why rent, not retailer demand, is the biggest hurdle standing between today's market and meaningful new shopping center construction.05:45 - The rent growth hiding in plain sightFace rents don't tell the whole story as TI packages, retailer investment and net effective rents reshape deal economics.08:36 - Does geography change the development equation?Land availability, Sun Belt growth, interest rates and construction costs determine where new projects have the best chance of penciling.11:12 - The physical store is more valuable than the headlines suggestChris argues that the market still underestimates what stores do for retailers and their relationship with consumers.12:03 - Retail's one-prototype era is overRetailers are using data to make smarter decisions about formats, distribution, clustering and market-specific store strategies.16:41 - What younger consumers reveal about physical retailKarly's New York retail tour with her kids shows how pop-ups, flagships and social media can work together to drive real-world shopping.21:09 - Lease negotiations are moving back toward balanceAfter years of tenant-friendly movement, landlords and retailers are becoming more pragmatic about non-monetary provisions and getting deals done.24:24 - Why the store-opening timeline still needs workRetailers are planning pipelines years in advance because leases, municipalities and multiple decision-makers make timelines difficult to compress.27:02 - The lease provision seeing the biggest shiftUse restrictions have become significantly more flexible as shopping center tenant mixes continue to evolve.29:28 - The local entrepreneur has changedMore founders are thinking about scale, franchising, private equity and monetization before they even open location number one.
Rafael Weiss is the co-founder of Sytes, a marketplace platform that connects commercial real estate landlords, developers, and brokers with tenants actively looking for space in real time. Rafael came to the problem as a developer who lost a deal because tenant demand was invisible until it was too late, and built Sytes to fix the information asymmetry at the core of retail leasing. The platform serves nearly 350 tenants and over 35,000 active site listings across all 50 states, with clients including Kimco, InvenTrust, Church's Chicken, and Dutch Bros.

In episode 263, Coffey talks with Jimmy Taylor about the state of return-to-office, AI's real impact on workforce participation and HR practice, and why proactive networking and skills-based hiring matter more than ever. They discuss CBRE data showing peak office utilization reaching 80% and the factors driving successful return-to-office adoption; the hidden financial costs employees bear when returning to the office and how employers should account for that in compensation and goodwill; why early-career professionals stand to benefit most from in-person work through mentorship, visibility, and relationship-building; June jobs report softness, a 50-year-low labor participation rate, and competing explanations from immigration enforcement changes and AI displacement; AI as a net job creator over time, drawing parallels to fears about the internet eliminating insurance agents, real estate agents, and recruiters in the 1990s; the organizational opportunity and challenge of assessing AI skill gaps and reskilling loyal existing employees rather than replacing them with outside talent; Gen Z's surprising gaps in desktop computing and interpersonal skills despite their reputation for tech fluency; the case for replacing traditional resumes with tailored application processes and front-end skills assessments to filter out AI-generated candidate slop; professional association involvement as a proactive career resilience and network-building strategy before a job loss forces it; and Dallas HR's hands-on AI skills day designed to move HR professionals from AI curiosity to practical daily application.

Real expansion is happening in net lease right now with a focus on gas convenience, drive-thru coffee, fitness, and QSR. Tenants across all these categories are actively adding locations in 2026. But a public ticker on the door doesn't tell you who's actually on the hook if the tenant defaults and that answer changes everything about how you underwrite the deal.In this episode, Karly Iacono breaks down net lease tenant credit into three buckets every investor needs to underwrite differently:Bucket 1: The lease sits directly with a publicly rated parent. The credit is transparent and Wall Street prices it every day.Bucket 2: No public rating, no SEC filings but the lease still sits with a real corporate entity. Some of the strongest credits in net lease live here.Bucket 3: The one that catches investors off guard. The brand is publicly traded and expanding fast, but the franchisor is not your tenant. The franchisee is. And several of the biggest names in this bucket have stated explicitly they do not guarantee the lease.The takeaway: match your diligence to the credit, not the brand's fame and keep an eye on these expanding tenants.

The predictions that looked a lot more like reality on the show floor.Everyone arrives at ICSC with predictions. The real question is which ones survive contact with 25,000 people on the show floor.Chris Ressa and CBRE's Karly Iacono weren't just attending ICSC Las Vegas. They were in the middle of it. Between meetings, deal discussions, and serving as panelists at the inaugural ICSC+PROPTech event, they had a front-row seat to the conversations shaping retail real estate in 2026.One of the biggest takeaways? The relationship between cap rates and interest rates is no longer as straightforward as many expected. Despite elevated borrowing costs, strong demand for retail assets continues to support pricing. With more capital chasing a limited supply of quality opportunities, retail fundamentals are increasingly driving investment decisions.That reality reinforces another trend both hosts have been watching closely: the rise of the operator. Rather than relying on financial engineering, investors are focused on creating value through leasing, rent growth, and hands-on asset management. In today's market, execution matters.The conversation also turns to AI, which surfaced in meeting after meeting throughout the week. Surprisingly, the most interesting discussions weren't about corporate technology initiatives.
