Who it's for?
‘That Retail Property Guy’ podcast is for all retail tenants, across the board.
There’s something for everyone who is impacted by or involved in the business of renting space for retail businesses.
It’s for retail tenants from the usual mall-dominating names. For the smaller family-owned chains of six to sixteen smaller stores. For the independent retailer who rented low before the landlord went high.
It’s for those who have big teams of Estates Management and Property Accounts Payable and those with no team at all.
And it’s also for some interested finance people, surveyors, investors, landlords, students…
… and anyone else who is intrigued to know what happens in this niche, vital part of any retail business. -
What's it about?
TRPG Podcast is about what happens in the ‘Venn Overlap’ between retail estates teams and property accounts payable. Episodes include:
Broad brush approaches to joined-up services between Estates and Accounts Payable.
Following the numbers, from millions clawed back to lost pennies and pounds.
Deep-dives into the complexities of leases, lease clauses and all the accompanying documentation.
Clarity around retail tenants’ rights and advantages, and where the picture is less optimistic.
Reflections on the impact of changes at governmental, legislative and accounting standards levels.
And some funny stories, some salutary tales, and a heap of memorable examples and anecdotes -
Who's the host?
That Retail Property Guy is not just a podcast. It’s insight, experience and advice for retail tenants in actionable nuggets, from industry specialist, Gary Marshall.
Gary is a seasoned practitioner in retail property management, whose mission is to champion retail tenants and develop effective estates teams. He stands by the motto of ‘proper prior process planning prevents poor property portfolio performance’.
He also helps out when that planning didn’t happen to an optimal level, through consultancy and via his direct services company, SmarterEstates.
With That Retail Property Guy, you’re hearing and learning from a pro. In fact, tuning into TRPG could even count as informal CPD hours for RICS accreditation.
But it can also entertain and inform non-specialists, even non-retailers. Dive in.
