If there is one thing I have learned over the past year, it’s that retail buyers have not left Orlando. They have become more selective, and that selectivity is exposing the real issue in the market: there are not enough high-quality retail properties available for sale in the trade areas investors want most.

For owners, this creates an important window. Properties with strong locations, durable tenancy and a clear growth story are standing out because buyers have fewer comparable alternatives to pursue. In this market, quality does not just protect value; it creates competition. One of the biggest changes I have noticed over the past few years is how buyers evaluate opportunities. A few years ago, investors moved much faster. Today, they spend more time underwriting acquisitions, reviewing lease structures and understanding the …
