Whitestone REIT (WSR) - Hoya Hotseat Whitestone REIT (NYSE:WSR) is a small-cap retail REIT that owns and operates 55 open-air shopping centers with an exclusive focus on a handful of Sunbelt markets: Austin, Dallas, Houston, and Phoenix. Unlike its REIT peers, WSR invests primarily in smaller neighborhood and community centers rather than "big box" power centers, which results in a grocery-heavy and more e-commerce-resistant tenant mix. Among the better-performing strip center REITs over the past three, five, and ten years, WSR has a target of both acquisition interest and activist interest, most recently involved in a proxy battle with Ezra Asset Management. COO Christine Mastandrea joins the Hotseat to discuss the evolution of WSR’s portfolio strategy, the advantages of investing in neighborhood retail centers, the resilience of the Sunbelt markets, and the broader trends shaping the retail REIT industry. WSR Quick Facts: 🎂IPO Date: 2010 📈 Market Cap: $690M (Small-Cap 600) 💸 Dividend Yield: 4.00% (📅Monthly) 🏦 Debt/EV Ratio: 51% 💳 Credit Rating: N/A All of the interviews are available here: @Whitestonereit | @DailyREITBeat | @ReitAcademy | @AllTheREITNews | @REITs_Nareit | $WSR

🏗️ Industrial Sector Adjusts: Shrinking Supply and Shifting Development Trends 📉 The industrial sector is transitioning after its pandemic-driven boom. As we move into 2025, more changes are expected, according to the latest CommercialEdge office report. Key Highlights of the Industrial Market 📊 * Over 1.1 billion square feet of industrial space were added in 2022-2023. * In 2024, the pace slowed with 358 million square feet delivered. * Industrial starts dropped further to 236 million square feet in 2024, down 35% from 2023 and over 60% from 2022. * Little growth is expected in 2025. Shifting Focus in Development: * The emphasis is shifting from warehouse and distribution space to manufacturing and data centers. * 150 million square feet of manufacturing space has been started since 2022, driven by investment growth. * However, cuts to clean energy incentives may hinder further expansion. 💼 Vacancy Rates and Market Challenges 🏢 * National vacancy rate reached 8% in December 2024, up from record lows. * Stabilization is expected, with a gradual decline predicted by late 2025. * Challenges include potential tariffs, labor market shifts, and local development restrictions. Development Hotspots 🔥 * Phoenix led with 5.7% of its inventory (22.3 million square feet) under construction. Other key cities include: * Kansas City (3.9% - 11.5 million square feet) * Memphis (3.5% - 10.5 million square feet) * Philadelphia (2.4% - 11 million square feet) * Denver (2.4% - 6.8 million square feet) * Columbus, OH (2.2% - 7.1 million square feet) Rising Rents Amid Vacancy Growth 💸🏢 * The average national rent rose to $8.40/sq ft in December 2024—up 6.6% year-over-year. * Top performers include New Jersey (+9.8%), Miami (+9.6%), Inland Empire (+8.7%), and Atlanta (+8.7%). Weakest Rent Growth: The Midwest saw the slowest rent increases, with Kansas City at +2.0%, Detroit at +2.3%, and St. Louis at +2.4%. Premium Leases: * Newly signed leases averaged $10.36/sq ft—$2.20 higher than the overall average. * Miami had the highest lease premiums, with new deals surpassing market rates by $5.65/sq ft. Looking Ahead 🚀 * Development Slows: Weaker demand and high borrowing costs are expected to keep industrial development in check for the near future. * Opportunities in Manufacturing & Data Centers: The shift toward manufacturing and data centers presents long-term potential despite current market challenges.

#REITs Align with Growing Demand for Fitness & Wellness 💪 The surge in demand for health and wellness options is reshaping real estate. From yoga studios, cycling hubs, and climbing gyms to wellness retreats, it's clear that fitness and wellness are here to stay. With nearly 100 million U.S. adults prioritizing health in 2025, the wellness economy is booming, valued at $1.8 trillion—making it the largest globally. REITs are riding this wave by investing in properties that cater to this growing demand. Here's how some are leading the way: 1️⃣ $EPR Properties: Focusing on Non-Commodity Wellness 🏋️‍♂️ * Market Focus: Expanding into fitness and wellness, including hot springs and climbing gyms. * Growth: Fitness and wellness rose from 0.9% to 8% of their portfolio in Q3 2024. * Unique Assets: Investing in curated, niche experiences people are willing to pay a premium for. * Successful Examples: Iron Mountain Hot Springs and VITAL Climbing Gym in Brooklyn. * Growth Potential: Fitness and wellness could easily make up 15% of their portfolio in the near future. * Gregory Silvers, CEO: “We see a lot of growth potential in non-commodity fitness concepts, like hot springs and climbing gyms, which foster strong community loyalty.” 2️⃣ $FRT Federal Realty Investment Trust Realty: Building a Fitness Cluster Destination 🏙️ * Innovative Concept: Created FITRow, a fitness hub with 5 boutique studios under one roof: Orangetheory, Title Boxing, Pure Bar, Club Pilates, and CycleBar. * Target Audience: Primarily women ages 25–40 seeking elevated fitness experiences. * Collaboration over Competition: Fitness studios collaborate rather than compete, benefiting from shared clientele. * Community Hub: Added rooftop deck with seating and juice bar to foster community engagement. * Liz Ryan, VP of Leasing: "FITRow has become a vibrant destination that’s more than just fitness—it's a full lifestyle experience." 3️⃣ $REG Regency Centers: Balancing Diverse Fitness Options ⚖️ * Fitness Boom: From small fitness concepts to large gyms, Regency is incorporating diverse fitness options. * Notable Projects: Westlake Plaza (with yoga, Pilates, and cryo wellness) and Crossing Clarendon (with Life Time fitness center, SoulCycle, and hot yoga). * Harmony in Diversity: Integrating multiple fitness options in retail spaces offers a holistic wellness experience. * Expanding Partnerships: Collaborating with industry giants like Life Time and LA Fitness. * Andrew Kabat, SVP: "We’re creating platforms where fitness concepts can coexist and thrive, creating a balanced wellness ecosystem." Takeaway 🚀 The rise in consumer demand for health and wellness is transforming the real estate landscape. REITs are adapting by embracing niche fitness experiences, creating community-focused wellness spaces, and integrating diverse fitness offerings across their portfolios.
