Jung Feng's questions to Site Centers Corp (SITC) leadership • Q2 2024
Question
Jung Feng asked about the expected normal lease-to-occupied gap for the Curbline portfolio and how lease options differ between Curbline assets and traditional anchored centers.
Answer
CFO Conor Fennerty estimated the normal lease-to-occupied gap for Curbline would be tight, around 100 basis points, due to the ease of backfilling small spaces. He explained that while initial lease terms are similar to anchored centers, the key difference is that Curbline leases have significantly fewer renewal options, preventing long-term tenant control and allowing for more frequent rent mark-to-market opportunities.
