Q & A Highlights
Q: Can you discuss the transaction market and how the level of deals being sourced compares to historic norms? Also, how is the competition for deals that aren't from relationship tenants? A: Stephen Horn, CEO: The market is seeing more sellers returning, and our acquisition team is sorting through many opportunities. M&A activity has increased, leading to larger average transactions. The market remains highly competitive, with some private money entering, but it doesn't significantly affect us as they aren't targeting smaller deals like we do.
