REIT that owns and operates high-quality regional shopping malls and lifestyle centers across the US.
REIT that owns and operates high-quality regional shopping malls and lifestyle centers across the US.
Collects base rent and sales-linked percentage rent from retailers and charges tenants for property costs, so income depends on occupancy and how much retailers sell. Some malls are owned through joint ventures with other investors. Under a plan launched in 2024 it is selling weaker malls and concentrating on its best-located centres and on adding housing and offices at them.
Moat: narrow (scale, installed base). Well-located malls in dense, affluent trade areas are hard to replicate, but mall retail demand has structurally declined.
