FAQs

Comprehensive audits should be conducted annually, with quarterly reviews of key performance indicators and market trends to allow for timely adjustments.

The checklist covers areas such as tenant category balance, anchor tenant performance, lease expiration schedules, rental rates analysis, vacancy rates, foot traffic patterns, and alignment with target consumer demographics.

By identifying gaps in the current tenant mix and analyzing consumer trends, the checklist helps create a strategic leasing plan that targets complementary retailers and services, making the mall more attractive to potential tenants.

The audit team should include leasing managers, property managers, market research analysts, and potentially external retail consultants to ensure a comprehensive assessment of the mall's positioning and potential.

The audit results can guide decisions on lease renewals, tenant relocations, marketing strategies, and mall renovations to create an optimal shopping environment that maximizes both tenant success and overall mall performance.
