\nA Challenging Management Assignment
\n<\/h3>\n

\nWhen I assumed management of the shopping center, then known as Westlake Village Plaza, occupancy was approximately 70 percent and many existing tenants were struggling. The property’s original configuration presented a significant leasing challenge: a separate retail building positioned in front of the rear shopping corridor substantially restricted visibility and pedestrian traffic to the shops behind it.\n<\/p>\n

\nI worked closely with existing tenants to stabilize their businesses while undertaking a personal leasing effort identifying tenants that would compliment the existing tenant mix and increase consumer traffic the the Center. As part of the property’s repositioning, I renamed the center The North Ranch Mall.\n<\/p>\n

\nWithin approximately one year, occupancy increased from 70 percent to 95 percent, demonstrating the results of hands-on management, tenant retention, and proactive leasing.\n<\/p>\n
