REOMAC to Host Top CRE Leaders in Panel Discussion
July 19, 2018 at River Forest Country Club, Elmhurst, Illinois
I am pleased to be participating in the REOMAC a panel discussion on adaptive reuse of big box properties and other underutilized commercial and industrial real estate on July 19, 2018 at River Forest Country Club, in Elmhurst, Illinois. Joining me on the panel will be Jim Terrell of A&G Realty, former COO of Sear Holdings Real Estate Portfolio, and Scott Henry of Celadon Holdings, a leading developer of affordable housing in the Greater Chicago region. As many of you know, my practice focuses heavily on commercial real estate due diligence and the practical design and implementation of redevelopment plans from inception through entitlement, acquisition, financing, closing, and beyond. The panel will be moderated by Mark Paniccia, Vice President of Business and Commercial Lending for TREO Asset Services–East Coast Division and Managing Member of Signal Asset Management LLC.
Adaptive Reuse of Big Box Properties, and more:
A vital concern in many communities is the challenge of filling underutilized and vacant commercial and industrial space. Whether from recent store closings, bankruptcies, or a still-lagging recovery from the Great Recession, finding solutions for adaptive reuse of commercial and industrial real estate is a top priority.
What do we do with this property? How can it be put to productive use? What are other communities and property owners doing? How do we know the property can be used as planned? What steps must be taken to get from where we are today to the fully functioning project we envision? How do we pay for it? Will municipal governments help with redevelopment by abating or sharing taxes, or providing development funds to private developers though so-called “public-private partnerships”?
