thsas comment-15713 2009-10-17T03:59:39Z 2009-10-17T03:59:39Z After 25 years of landlord rate increases, we have renegotiated about 80% of our spaces for lower rents. We are now being asked to take occupancy for free in some new strip centers, that sit empty. Sad that we need to deline those offers, because our stores will not survive without strong retail anchors. It is a wierd time, and I suspect that commercial property will be cheap for quite a while. thsas 2009-10-17T03:59:39Z William Gallahue comment-15703 2009-10-16T22:58:48Z 2009-10-16T22:58:48Z See now I get it William Gallahue 2009-10-16T22:58:48Z bbbbmer comment-15693 2009-10-16T18:56:11Z 2009-10-16T18:56:11Z I was just attempting a punch line... oh well... bbbbmer 2009-10-16T18:56:11Z William Gallahue comment-15626 2009-10-15T15:29:17Z 2009-10-15T15:29:17Z The rates in this article are general starting prices. Depending on the submarket, $1.00/sf/month rates may be available depending on your needs. Bbbbmer, as far as including Class A, I realize this is a community newspaper and not the WSJ but I simply wanted to contrast prices.

Some rent is better than no rent at all.... bbbbmer 2009-10-15T14:12:13Z William Gallahue comment-5466 2009-04-02T19:20:51Z 2009-04-02T19:20:51Z The site should be fixed. Not sure what happened.

I clicked through from the link in the last sentence and went to a page that's under construction. Hopefully they're not paying for that plug here?! b2bcommunicate 2009-03-31T08:13:11Z b2bcommunicate comment-5313 2009-03-31T08:11:23Z 2009-03-31T08:11:23Z Useful piece, thanks. We're looking for new space in Davis. Wonder whether the same thing is happening here. b2bcommunicate 2009-03-31T08:11:23Z
