Choose the right perspective
Match the person's property type to yours, since running an industrial logistics portfolio differs from managing open-air retail centers, life science campuses or data centers. Ask whether the person worked for a REIT, a private owner or an investment manager serving outside investors, since that shapes how business plans, budgets and leasing decisions get approved.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01What goes into an annual business plan for a commercial property, and how do you track it during the year?
- 02How do you decide when to spend capital on a building to win or keep tenants?
- 03How do you divide work between the asset manager, the property manager and the leasing brokers?
