One result of the coronavirus pandemic could be as many as 25,000 store closures announced by retailers this year, as the crisis takes a toll on many businesses, and already has pushed some over the brink and into bankruptcy.
U.S. retailers could announce between 20,000 and 25,000 closures in 2020, according to a tracking by Coresight Research, with 55% to 60% of those situated in America’s malls. That would also mark a record — which was previously the more than 9,300 locations in 2019.

Two new surveys of people forced to go remote show productivity up, yet burnout close behind.
Two new surveys show that teams forced into remote work during the pandemic are split on whether they want to continue working remotely going forward. However, in those same surveys, many business leaders responsible for the bottom line are planning to make remote work permanent.
Whereby, a company that provides video collaboration, surveyed 1,500 British professionals who began working from home following stay-at-home orders....

RSK: I still do not think the need for office space will shrink that much. Employees will need more separation between each other hence even if some workers work remotely; those who are not will require more space. Interesting to see how this plays out...

Macy’s sounded a confident note in its preliminary sales and earnings results for the first quarter as COVID-19 restrictions loosen and customers start to return to its stores.

North Texas had been humming along thanks to an 11-year long bull run. The region was leading the country in job growth. The prospects for relocating companies to the area from out of state fueled a seemingly ever-robust office market. Businesses saw record profits and income close to historical highs at the end of 2019. Meanwhile, the DFW real estate market paced the country in multifamily and industrial construction. That all came to an abrupt stop with COVID-19...

The economic downturn prompted by the viral outbreak put a huge dent in millennials’ savings, which will make it harder to gather the resources to purchase a home
Millennials may not be as vulnerable to serious health complications from COVID-19 as other generations, but they will still feel the effects pandemic’s economic fallout, according to a new report from Realtor.com
The rapid rise in unemployment and broader economic downturn prompted by the coronavirus outbreak has forced millions of Americans to dip into their savings to cover routine expenses. But while the coronavirus-fueled economic slump happened quickly, it will take a long time to recoup those funds...

A third of America’s malls are going to shut permanently by 2021, according to one former department store executive, as their demise is accelerated due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“The mall has been losing ground for a long time, now it’s losing ground faster,” said Jan Kniffen, a current retail consultant and former exec at The May Department Stores, which was eventually folded into Macy’s.

Key Points
- “The mall has been losing ground for a long time, now it’s losing ground faster,” said Jan Kniffen, a current retail consultant and former exec at The May Department Stores, which was folded into Macy’s.
- Initially, he was expecting roughly 33% of America’s malls to go dark by 2030. Now, Kniffen thinks that will happen by next year.
- There are still about 1,000 malls operating in the U.S. today, according to commercial real estate services firm Green Street Advisors.
RSK: Malls need to re-purpose....all that land and buildings can be used for other purposes such as housing, medical etc.

KENT, Wash. — After months of being embattled over its response to the coronavirus, Amazon is working to convince the public that its workplaces — specifically, the warehouses where it stores everything from toys to hand sanitizer — are safe during the pandemic.The giant internet retailer has started running television ads that show that its warehouse and delivery employees have masks and other protective gear. It has pushed out segments to local news stations touting its safety improvements. It has asked journalists to visit its warehouses to see for themselves.

The medical office and traditional office will align in several ways going forward, says Cushman & Wakefield`s Healthcare Advisory Group executive director.
Imagine the last time you went to the doctor. You likely rode up an elevator and sat in a lobby or waiting room, elbow-to-elbow with other patients. You probably filled out paperwork, either with a pen and paper or maybe a touch screen device. Unless you were sick, you probably didn’t wear a mask.
The next time you go to the doctor, the experience is likely to be quite
different. As a result of COVID-19, how medical office space—and office
space in general—is used is going to change.
RSK: This is so true...why are we put in close contact with other sick people? Never made sense to me. You can register on line or with your phone and they can text you when it is time to come in.
Best practices for safely resuming office occupancy have far-reaching implications for new leases and renewals.
As businesses nationwide pursue phased reopening, a key issue for commercial real estate owners and managers is how to safely resume the use of office space. The Centers for Disease Control added significantly to the conversation late last month by producing an exhaustive list of guidelines for employers, building owners and property managers.
Highlights of CDC’s recommendations include ensuring that HVAC systems are working properly; bringing in fresh air where possible; implementing employee screening, social distancing and other administrative controls; and rearranging workstations, reception areas, and meeting or break rooms to promote the separation of employees...

RSK: Until we have a vaccine or herd immunity, things will be very different in office buildings...but people will slowly drift back and probably want more space between co-workers. Work from home will increase. Elevators will be the problem.

IA Management is a full service property management company located in Madison, Wisconsin. Our objective is to be a profitable leader in both commercial and residential real estate.
Governments forced many non-essential businesses to close to help slow the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak, including fitness centers. That caused significant financial strain for many gyms. Because of that, several are turning toward bankruptcy to help ease their financial burdens. Gold`s Gym has already filed, while 24 Hour Fitness is preparing to do so.
One of the financial weights that fitness centers are hoping to lift in bankruptcy is their lease obligations. That`s already starting to have a significant impact on commercial real estate companies that lease space to these fitness center operators...
