Top Commercial Real Estate Executive Warns of Commercial Property Foreclosures at Tampa Distressed Property Summit
ORLANDO - The nationwide economic downturn will result in an increase in commercial real estate foreclosures this year, one of the region’s top commercial property executives told a Tampa real estate summit recently.
Jeff Sweeney, SIOR, president of Grubb & EllisCommercial Florida, with offices in Tampa, Orlando and Melbourne, moderated a panel discussion at the Tampa Distressed Real Estate Summit.
The Tampa Distressed Real Estate Summit was sponsored by the Real Estate Communications Group.
“Commercial property owners are facing some of the same sorts of financial challenges that home owners have been facing and the result is a substantial increase in the volume of distressed properties throughout Florida,” Sweeney told the group.
“Property owners who are losing tenants or granting concessions in order to keep their buildings filled are having difficulty making payments on their commercial property loans, and that adds tremendous pressure to banks,” Sweeney said.
Sweeney’s panel focused on adding value to distressed assets.
Ray Hayhurst, an associate at Grubb & EllisCommercial Florida, and Don Lombardi, who heads Commercial Florida Advisors, an affiliate of Grubb & EllisCommercial Florida in Tampa, also moderated panel discussions on evaluating commercial properties and partially completed construction projects.
Sweeney predicts that Grubb & EllisCommercial Florida will see a 30 percent increase in 2010 distressed commercial property sales over 2009 levels, as a result of the economic downturn.
