Mike and Marc on Retail Therapy (S3:E2)

Retail’s holding steady, and so are Mike’s chickens — both thriving in their own way. In this episode of In the CRE Vault with Mike and Marc, the guys dive into the current retail real estate market, breaking down what’s hot, what’s holding, and what’s hilariously unexpected.

From strip centers to street-front gems, they unpack why retail is still kicking strong in a world of online everything. You’ll hear about steady rates, demand, and why this market might be one of the resilient performers in CRE right now.

Oh — and yes, there’s more poultry talk. Turns out chickens are surprisingly good at pecking out retail trends (or at least entertaining Mike while he does).

Pull up a chair, pop in your earbuds, and get ready for another round of laughs, insights, and a fresh perspective on the Midwest retail scene.
