  • Mall Redevelopment White Paper
    Mall Redevelopment White Paper Produced by: Bonner Advisory Group On behalf of the City of Sterling Heights Luke Bonner – CEO Bonner Advisory Group Senior Economic Development Advisor to City of Sterling Heights Katrina Campos – Senior Advisor Bonner Advisory Group December 5, 2015 US Retail Real Estate Industry Despite the US economy reaching its healthiest levels since the 2008 recession, low inflationary policy, and loose borrowing conditions, US consumers are still cautious with spending on goods and buying from retail stores. Retail sales have been relatively stagnate, with consumers focusing more on dining out and more substantial purchases like cars. Nevertheless, lower unemployment and higher income figures suggest future growth in household spending and purchase of non-essential goods. Unemployment is at a 7-year low, forecasted to sink from 6.2% in 2014 to 5.5% in 2015, and household spending is expected to grow 2.96% over 2015, approximately $7.03 billion, and another 4.33% in 2016. According to BMI Research’s 2016 United States Real Estate Report,1 retail real estate is currently in a sweet spot where luxury retailers are benefitting from increasing income amongst high earners, especially in key shopping districts such as New York City and Los Angeles. However, online distribution and E-commerce are booming and more Americans are opting to purchase goods through these platforms, posing a risk to the longevity of high-street and brick and mortar stores. 1 (BMI Research: A FitchGroup Company, 2016) Key Retail Developers Simon Property Group and General Growth Properties maintain the key player positions in the US.
