City of Walnut Creek’s Post

The vacancy rate in Uptown, Charlotte's central business district, has roughly tripled since early 2020 to nearly 18%. But a closer look at office performance in surrounding nodes adds some nuance to narratives of urban decline and suburban success. Urban submarkets excluding Uptown have essentially the same vacancy rate as suburban submarkets at 11%, and the top performing submarket in terms of net absorption has been the CBD-adjacent South End. Additionally, suburban submarkets with older inventory such as University and Airport, maintain higher vacancy rates than Uptown. More details available to CoStar Group subscribers.

In reviewing the office market condition of big cities, San Francisco is displaying outlier data points. I haven't personally been to SF for at least 4 years so cannot testify first hand - but statistically, the once beautiful magnificient city is dying. Graphs are based on CoStar data and show: - the latest office vacancy rate - the change in vacancy from pre-COVID to current - office rent changes in SF and Phoenix

I’m I the only one who thinks Authority Planners forget they supply a paid service? When I worked for a local authority, my boss encouraged me to interact with agents for mutually beneficial results. I also don’t get the argument that they are too busy, as I did around 430 applications in a year! Now they want to validate and determine with no interaction. I don’t want to name the local authorities involved, but if you are a head of planning, please actively encourage your planners to engage with agents/ applicants! #planningpermission #planning #townplanner #townplanning #developmentmanagement

Dear Community Managers, Ever Feel Like This Guy? Dear Community Managers, Ah, the joys of managing multifamily properties! From dealing with noisy neighbors to resolving maintenance requests at odd hours, your days are never dull. But let's talk about one of the biggest headaches in the industry: cleaning contractors.

Finally, you get them on board, jump through all the hoops to get them qualified, and breathe a sigh of relief. But wait, it doesn't end there. You have to follow up to ensure the job is done to your standards, and then comes the fun part—chasing them for payment.
