Retail space is commercial real estate property where goods and services are sold directly to buyers in person, who are purchasing for their own use. These brick-and-mortar storefronts including strip malls, shopping centers, community retail centers, power centers, shopping malls and out parcels. Properties may be operated with a single tenant or multiple tenants who typically lease space from the property’s owner.
These small retail properties include a mix of tenants in different retail businesses such as gift shops, salons and dry cleaners, which may or may not include an anchor tenant.
Normally 150,000 to 350,000 square feet, community retail centers often feature multiple anchor tenants such as grocery stores, drug stores and restaurants.
