What happened?
Banks and other high-powered Wall Street firms made a lot of bad loans for houses, and commercial real estate.
They also made a lot of bad loans for businesses, credit cards, and M&A.
They lost more money than their equity.
The losses are so big that the government can’t allow banks to take them all at once.
BoyarMillerDecember 4, 2009
They can’t auction the bad assets because it would reveal the true extent of the losses.
So they have “injected capital” allowing the banks to amortize their losses over years.

Office investment sales (for which pricing information could be obtained) in metro Houston total $109 million through 3rd quarter 2009.
By comparison, sales totaled $981 million in the first nine months of 2008.
Weak market fundamentals and lack of liquidity in the credit markets have suppressed sales activity in all metro markets.

Retail MarketLance Gilliam – Moody Rambin InterestsManaging Director
• consumer income to fuel and generate retail sales
• retail sales to pay rent
• rent to fund debt service or rent to be capitalized to create value for a sale
• consumers, retailers and capital markets have to have confidence in that income
Fitch Ratings reported that retail sales from Black Friday weekend were, at best, marginal.
The National Retail Federation reported that more people shopped but spent less money.
“Mounting job losses, declines in wages & salaries and falling home prices prompted consumers to cut discretionary spending.“Source: Wells Fargo Securities’ Economics Group
Reports from the recent Urban Land Institute Fall Meeting in San Francisco were that “not one expert was willing to predict what things will look like in 3 years other than they think it will be better.” And, further, that a “…recovery will be slow. Unemployment will not drop back to more normal levels until 2014.”
Robert Bach, Grubb & Ellis’ Senior Vice President & Chief Economist, included some hope in his recent Good Friday e-mail, “The recession is over, but 2010 is not going to feel like a classic recovery. There are too many headwinds, notably lagging job creation, lingering weakness in consumer spending and tight lending conditions.”
Drew Kanaly with Kanaly Trust shared the following with your peers attending Boyar Miller’s breakfast last September:”Consumer spending has a long way to fall. Household balance sheet repair (more savings paying down debt) (is) likely to drive economic fundamentals over (the) next several years.”
Dr. Barton Smith included the following in the University of Houston’s Institute for Regional Forecasting Houston Economic Symposium on November 5, 2009, “The Worst is Behind Us -- The Wait Lies Ahead.” With that framing statement, he also noted and forecast:
“job growth will begin in 2010 but not fast enough to keep the year’s average from falling. Nonetheless, most sectors will show year over year job growth by fall.”
“consumers continue to struggle, bargain shop only”
“retail sales would fall by 2.9% in 2009 and increase by a nominal 0.63% in 2010.”
From Wednesday’s Houston Chronicle, “Retailing analysts at Thomson Reuters expect stores to post a 2.3 percent sales increase for November, in contrast to a 7.8 percent decline a year ago.”
“…the retail landscape will see material changes as retailers and property owners use the current environment to right size their portfolios and focus on repositioning underperforming locations. This process is healthy in the long run and will form a solid base for retail expansion as the economy rebounds … (We) work with our clients on both sides of the equation to take actions that will stabilize one another’s real estate through and beyond those challenging times.”
What that means is; whatever deal you thought you had with the tenant, you don’t or at least the tenant doesn’t think you do.
Requests for rent reduction and lease modifications are based on a company-wide initiative to “pay less.”Today, retailers are no longer focused on growth, they are focused on profit.
Good for the retailers’ stockholders. Bad for landlords.
Even if the capital markets would fund it, we still shouldn’t build it. We need to take a step back.
Any new construction and tenancies would likely cannibalize existing retail and restaurant sales and, as a result, further weaken existing tenants’ ability to meet their current lease obligations.
Further, the downward pressure on rent extends beyond existing leases and is very evident in conversations about new stores --- few of which are being constructed.
The direction to most dealmakers is “pay less” Those numbers don’t work for new construction.
When that equilibrium returns, I do not know.
But … retail is a competitive industry. The strong survive. The weak do not. Successful retailers and restaurateurs who are well capitalized will take advantage of their competitors’ weaknesses.
Many retailers have remarkable liquidity. Fitch Ratingsnoted in a special report: The Retail Register released inSeptember 2009 that “...liquidity is strong for the dis-counters as a result of solid cash flow generation. Lowercapital expenditures are expected to help generate addi-tional cash of $1 billion each for Walmart and Target.“
Limited new construction: retailers’, especially grocers, entries into urban
markets where elevated land prices have recentlyposed a barrier to entry.
retailers’ relocations to improve their locationwithin a trade area or update the store to a currentprototype.
smaller owner-operated retailers and restaurants and other service users.
Look beyond reports of reports that reflect vacancy rates for “retail” or “shopping centers,” in general. They overstate the problem.
Vacancies in well-located, well-designedand responsibly owned and operated willbe filled. Their will be pain but the painwill pass.
There are buildings that have significantvacancies that are “shopping centers” inname only. They no longer are or, insome cases, never were viable retailshopping environments. They are“something else.”
“Something elses” represent opportunity. These projects are prime candidates for“adaptive re-use.”
UNCERTAINTY KILLS DEALS.
There is a W I D E gap between
