Why it’s necessary
Diversification smooths cash flow across economic cycles and demand shifts.
Key components
Mixed-use asset portfolios
Cross-sector leasing strategies

How to evaluate businesses
Same-store NOI growth, portfolio occupancy, weighted average lease term (WALT), balance sheet leverage, and capital recycling discipline drive long-term value.
How the industry could be improved
Dynamic space reconfiguration, data-driven tenant mix optimization, and continuous repricing based on real-time demand signals.
