A ready project you can actually evaluate
Current operations let you see which brands are present, the type of customers and the level of footfall at different times. A buyer can also compare the rents of operating units and how long vacant shops stay on the market.
This data helps you value a unit more accurately than buying a shop in a project that has not started operating.
