Real estate and retailing today
Article Abstract:
Holiday retail business figures in 1998 indicated that the retailing business remained robust and healthy despite the Asian financial crisis. This in turn resulted into a better than projected performance for retail real estate. Total retail real estate returns jumped to 12.5% in 1998 from 5.3% in 1997. Continued opportunities for growth are expected in both the retail sector and the real estate that it supports. Real estate investors are expected to realize strong returns between 1999 and roughly 2004.

Retail real estate reality
Article Abstract:
The retail real estate industry went into a slump due to several factors. These include the downsizing efforts of the government, the absence of capital for the commercial real estate market and the financial insecurity of consumers. Investors who are looking forward to long-term gains can take advantage of the depressed prices. On the other hand, short-term investors may not immediately recover their investments.

Tough American negotiating changes the way Japanese landlords do business
Article Abstract:
The number of Japanese landlords that practice the key-money system is starting to decline due to several factors, the most significant of which is economic recession. Recession has severely affected the country's real estate market to the extent that some landlords have started to accept security deposits in lieu of key money. These changes may also have been influenced by changes in US' real estate practices.
