It's so important to create internships for next generation of product specialists.

There are only two metros that entered 2024 with more occupied office space than before the pandemic: 1. West Palm Beach 2. Las Vegas WPB is averaging sub-10% vacancy across all submarkets. This has led to an average rent growth of 2.6% over the last 12 months and 22.4% over the past 3 years. The South Florida market is dynamic, fast-paced, and volatile for tenants. McCann Commercial helps occupiers: • Identify opportunities for new office space • Ensure favorable terms upon renewing in existing space • Securing space for start-up firms • Need to expand, contract, or reconfigure existing space Great research from Sajan Blum who just kicked off his summer internship with the McCann team up in Philly!

I found this business case a few days back, and it was a brilliant read. I have been fascinated by their exceptional marketing and expansion strategies, and have been following the folks at Enterprise from my time at Bright Network’s summer internship program with Enterprise Rent-A-Car. The growth story from 1957 with just 7 cars to this date, a billion-dollar enterprise with over 67k employees, is nothing short of legendary. They have been very successful in their ‘truly diversifying’ aspirations - a classic example of how imperative it is to solidify market presence while constantly evolving a product, before extensive diversification. I absolutely love how these guys put forward their case. There’s no secret sauce to any of it - just a visionary leader, solid foundations, and core focus on customer satisfaction. "Take care of your customers and employees, and the profits will follow” - Jack Taylor (Founder, Enterprise Rent-A-Car) Suggested Readings: - Marketing and Product Strategies for Growth (Enterprise Rent-A -Car Business Case) - How Coolfire is Shaping the Future of Rental Car Business (Enterprise Rent-A -Car Case Study)

can you point out what makes Cisco Circular and suitable at the same time ? they seem to have been able to apply the ReSOLVE Feamework for circular economic sustainability well within their company.

The lesson I learned this week is that execution determines whether you’ll achieve your projected ROI. I was introduced to the collaboration that Greystar prioritizes to ensure deals are followed through to the end. This involves continually moving the project along with input from property managers to regional leaders, ensuring goals of successful asset management are understood, even when your job is to source and evaluate deals. I learned that an introduction to underwriting involves determining the potential a product can have in a market. This includes asking the initial question: “What does that piece of land and its surrounding areas offer to escalate lease-up potential and essentially improve the quality of life while also providing a return for shareholders?” I visited the property below to have a visual of the lessons learned this week. As it was a case study I did back in December of last year. #internship #realestate
