5 Reports That Helps Run a Tighter Real Estate Operation | Episode 46: I Own a Shopping Center, Now What?

Beth Azor

Everyone talks about sales and rent, but what reports do top shopping center owners actually use to run their properties? In this episode, I share the five essential reports she relies on to manage everything from lease renewals to rent increases, refinancing, and even delinquencies.

From sales performance to occupancy costs, rent rolls to renewal timelines - I break down how these reports help her stay ahead of tenant issues, maintain strong collections, and defend cap rates in a sale or refinance. If you're not reviewing these regularly, you might be flying blind.

Key Insights:

✔️ Sales reports help determine occupancy cost and support higher rents

✔️ Rent rolls are the foundation—track options, increases, CAM, and more

✔️ Expiration reports help plan ahead - but I prefer not to chase early renewals

✔️ Delinquency reports on the 10th and 20th keep collections tight

✔️ No grace periods - I hold even nationals accountable to paying on time
