Hong (Jung) Zhang's questions to Site Centers Corp (SITC) leadership • Q2 2024
Question
Hong (Jung) Zhang asked about the expected normal lease-to-occupied gap for the Curbline portfolio and how lease options in Curbline properties differ from those in traditional anchored centers.
Answer
CFO Conor Fennerty estimated the normal lease-to-occupied gap would be tighter than for anchored centers, around 100 basis points, due to the shorter time needed to backfill small shop spaces. He explained that while lease terms are similar, the key difference is that Curbline leases have far fewer options, preventing tenants from controlling space for decades and allowing for more frequent mark-to-market opportunities.
