This “cradle to grave” concept has proved successful in a myriad of assignments from centers as small as 15,000 square feet to large, anchored centers in excess of 1,100,000 square feet, including Tucson Spectrum and El Con Mall. Understanding the market, tenant mentality, and retail trends are the critical components Nancy brings to transactions.
