New proprietary data from a survey of more than 250 CRE professionals reveals a sharp divide between AI adoption and AI trust. Here’s what that gap signals for commercial real estate brokers over the next 18 months. Partnership conducted by DealGround and First American Data & Analytics.

When 7-Eleven announced plans to close 645 North American stores, the dominant narrative was predictable.

Nobody has a crystal ball as to where values will go but those that seek out and purchase the highest quality assets know that no matter where the market goes, their assets will always command the highest prices in the market, and therefore provide them with the highest purchasing power on the next leg of their transaction. In times of uncertainty, capital races towards quality.

Trader Joe’s has taken a different approach. They have built a model around repeat customer behavior and have stayed disciplined in where they place it. That combination is difficult to replicate. And in real estate, it shows up in everything around them. That is why deals around them are attractive.

DealGround CEO’s take on AI’s impact on CRE brokers.

A few years ago, Del Taco hitched its wagon to a bigger brother to solidify operational longevity and launch a national expansion. Then things changed.

When Wendy’s cuts five percent of its fleet, where are those stores? Which corridors? Which demographic profiles? When CVS trims 900 units, are they urban heavy? Suburban fringe? Redundant trade areas? Those patterns tell you where demand is thinning and where it’s still strong. At DealGround we track that market activity constantly. Not in theory. Specific addresses. Specific tenants. Specific owners.

Carl’s Jr. has inquired about closing stores and terminating leases. These are all “A” sites in Southern California. Something is clearly amiss at CKE. You don’t need to be a Wall Street analyst specializing in the restaurant industry to know something is wrong. It appears Carl’s Jr. is getting killed in California.

Amazon Fresh is no longer with us. All 72 locations (Amazon Fresh and Amazon Go). Gone.

Gas station / convenience store properties sit in an oft-maligned corner of the net lease world. They trade all the time, yet they’re still treated like the red-headed stepchild compared to other single-tenant NNN credit retail properties.

Most “surprises” that brokers come across when closing a deal are things that nobody bothered (or knew) to surface early - the types of things you’d expect to be fine after due diligence is completed.

And technology becomes a true differentiator, not a nice-to-have.DealGround will be there to help our customers spot opportunities before they become obvious. If you want to start 2026 ahead of the pack, now is the time.

After nearly three decades in brokerage, touring over 1,000 retail centers, driving hundreds of markets, and talking with both mom & pop tenants, mom & pop owners, sophisticated individual owners, corporate tenants, and institutional owners, one thing has become more and more clear: strip centers are some of the most durable and flexible assets in commercial real estate.

The other day I was testing a new feature in DealGround when I stumbled onto something wild. I was just poking around searching for Walgreens stores in Florida.

Last week in Palm Springs, I had the chance to attend the CREi Summit for the first time. This was the fifth year the event has taken place. If there's one thing I came back especially clear on, it’s this: the future of commercial real estate isn’t just about deals and dirt anymore.

The recent closure announcements by Jack in the Box and Rite Aid signal a continued reshaping of the tenant landscape.

At the end of the day, every broker, investor, lender, and tenant needs to utilize an intelligent data system - one that automates collection, organizes information in a central command center, and makes it instantly accessible and actionable. The real advantage lies in having the best data at your fingertips the moment you need it, presented in a way that ignites unique and actionable insights. When market intel flows seamlessly into your workflow, you’re able to focus on what matters most: making informed decisions.In today’s CRE landscape, information is capital. Wall Street has known this for decades. An information revolution is coming to commercial real estate and it is going to completely change the game.

These planned openings represent more than 1,200 new bank branches expected to open across the U.S. in the coming years. Investors and developers should be licking their chops. So how does one identify the best sites for these tenants? The first place to look is within a platform that highlights properties with expiring leases. The ability to search for freestanding buildings on parcels of 30,000 square feet or more, with short remaining lease terms, would immediately surface meaningful opportunities.If only a platform existed that could bring this older information to light—and make sourcing opportunities like these as simple as searching data from properties that have been on the market over the last 5, 10, 15, or even 20 years. Enter DealGround, the AI-native software that converts documents into property intelligence automatically.

In commercial real estate, deals don't come together by chance. They’re carefully constructed by the parties, each exerting leverage where they can to create the ideal outcome. When (most) successful landlords and brokers push for the best outcome, they do so only after understanding when they have power to do so.

It’s certainly not 2021 anymore. Remember the days when you could put almost any property on the market and it would garner multiple offers and sell shortly thereafter?

The sell-off in the stock market and swings in the bond markets over the last few months have raised some interesting questions for the commercial real estate industry. Where will the capital be redeployed?

Historically, drugstore real estate assets have been considered some of the safest properties in the net leased marketplace. Walgreens had been the king of this mountain for decades.

Over the last five years or so, a new group of tenants has been reshaping retail pads and drive-thru corners: beverage-first QSRs. Brands like Dutch Bros, Swig, and 7 Brew have scaled small-format drive-thrus into daily-use traffic engines, leaning on high-frequency orders, fast throughput, and simple menus that travel well. The rise of this new category means increased competition for new pads and provides increased tenant options for smaller or split pads.

Have you noticed how much harder it has become to get deals into the end zone? Have you had conversations with your peers about how things are going for them? I keep hearing from people that 2025 has been a brutal year. I have one response to that: if you continue to take the same actions, you will get the same results.

Now that 100% bonus depreciation is back, everyone’s sprinting toward the same finish line. Fee simple deals with depreciable improvements are now all the rage These assets will start to see increased transaction velocity in the latter part of Q3, all of Q4, and most likely throughout 2026.

This month the Federal Reserve made a unanimous decision to keep rates steady and reiterated they are taking a “wait-and-see” approach as unpredictable economic headwinds from tariffs could raise inflation and complicate policy decisions.

Brokerage is, at its core, an intelligence business. However, many brokers aren't fully leveraging all of the information available to them. Listing and property data services are essential tools, but every broker in the market sees the same listings, the same comps, and the same property information. In a crowded landscape, the difference-maker is what you uniquely know and how quickly you can act on it.

Fast food rents have skyrocketed over the last decade — as a result, the hierarchy of these tenants has shifted. The “Big Three” (Raising Cane’s, Chick-fil-A, and In-N-Out) are able to outbid everyone else for the best sites, reshaping the landscape for anyone outside their cohort.

Commercial real estate has long been a relationship-driven industry where information asymmetry creates competitive advantages. However, the sector is experiencing a fundamental shift as artificial intelligence changes how property data is collected, analyzed, and used for investment decisions.
