The Hidden Cost of Empty Office Space
From The Business of Real Estate with Fexingo: Commercial, Residential, and Investment Properties · 9:33
Show by Fexingo
Lucas and Luna examine how commercial real estate owners are quietly converting vacant office towers into residential units. With vacancy rates hovering near historic highs in major metros, the financial math of retrofitting old Class A buildings is becoming urgent rather than optional. They break down the specific structural changes required to turn a single-tenant corporate floor into a multi-family apartment, including plumbing stacks, window light wells, and fire code compliance. The conversation focuses on the gap between asking prices and actual conversion costs, revealing why some deals make sense while others leave developers holding the bag. #CommercialRealEstate #OfficeToResidential #PropertyConversion #RealEstateInvesting #UrbanPlanning #VacancyRates #BuildingRetrofit #HousingCrisis #RealEstateDebt #DevelopmentFinance #Architecture #ZoningLaws #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #RealEstateTrends2026 #CityLiving #ConstructionCosts Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
