Commercial Real Estate after the Coronavirus!

Edward Anderson on December 18, 2020

Americans are likely to see more “for rent” signs in the coming months as many businesses devastated by COVID-19 abandon offices and storefronts.

The pandemic has affected the way people use and interact in public space and likely will have lasting impacts on commercial real estate. The coronavirus is now a global phenomenon with two thirds of the world’s population living under some sort of lockdown or quarantine. People can no longer work, meet, eat, shop, and socialize as they used to. The working world quickly transformed from business as usual into office closures, work-from-home mandates, and production stalls. “Coronavirus could restructure America’s commercial real estate and industry,” said Clement Ziroli Jr.

While commercial properties tend to generate high returns, residential real estate properties are known to be much safer investments during a pandemic. While businesses are shutting down, people will always need places to live. So it’s unlikely that the COVID-19 pandemic will have long-lasting effects on the demand for the residential real estate sector. Landlords of single-family homes and small multi-family homes can expect to make rental income. Plus, there are still motivated sellers on the market in 2020.

Clem Ziroli Jr., who served on the Board of Directors of the California Mortgage Banking Association (CMBA) and the Community Home Lenders Association (CHLA), believes that we’re seeing the first signs of stress in the industry as clients are seeking to move out of office spaces they can no longer afford and the number of accounts receivable ticks up.

In early August, news broke that Simon Property Group—the largest owner and operator of malls in the US—was in talks with Amazon, with the objective of repurposing some of the space formerly occupied by beleaguered retail tenants into distribution and fulfillment centers. Amazon had already been converting some sites of “failed malls” in Northeastern Ohio into fulfillment centers. The e-commerce giant continues to perform well amid the COVID-19 crisis, doubling its profits year-over-year to $5.2 billion in the second quarter despite the worst economic contraction ever experienced by the US.

The question begged is what happens next. While some may look to muscle their way into distressed assets, it’s very possible the commercial real estate market will never look the same. This pandemic is something we’ve never experienced before,” notes Clement Ziroli.

“The commercial real estate industry has really been under the radar during this 2020 corona-stricken year, but it’s hurting badly,” Pac W. Dong says. Demand for office space has tumbled. Last quarter, office leasing was at its lowest point since the Great Recession. With that in mind, some developers and financiers are taking a step back from building more office space.“The pandemic really accelerated a trend toward online shopping and away from in-person shopping,” said Clement Ziroli Jr., acquisitions and leasing specialist. Public concern about the virus might cause some businesses such as movie theaters and malls to experience decreased traffic for weeks or months after reopening. When shopping and travel begin to stabilize, it will be clearer what commercial properties are worth. It will be interesting to see how real estate reacts in a second COVID wave that many believe has already started. “It will bounce back as soon as the world normalizes, but not as quickly as some optimists say,” Pac W. Dong said.

The Smile Concierge Club Combines Cosmetics and Dentistry to Bring People Their Winning Smiles

Edward Anderson on December 18, 2020

Cosmetics are often health & beauty products people use for the face and body, mostly catering to the facial appearance. However, while most companies focus on creating products for outward appearance, they often leave out an important winner: the smile. Fortunately, Dr. Catherine Muldoon has come up with a solution for that through her brand Smile Concierge Club.

Before creating her brand, Catherine Muldoon was a former Miss USA and Miss Teen USA titleholder. She also studied dentistry in an Ivy League. During her pageantry experience, Catherine noticed that there was nothing in the market that offered her what she wanted in dentistry. She would fly to multiple cities and visit the top dentists in the world to get her teeth worked on.

Catherine would go to different clinics and receive multiple consultations that she felt it was getting ridiculous. She wondered why she couldn’t just scan herself and email it to the dentist. The idea amused Catherine so much that she decided to make a kit. She then offered her kit to girls in Miss USA who didn’t have the time to travel to her. To make things more convenient, Catherine would travel to meet them. From there, she would create the Smile Concierge Club.

Smile Concierge Club is a dental office that offers top of the line cosmetics, dentistry that combines orthodontics and restoration, and convenience. Invisalign aligns teeth, but it leaves people yearning for more, since it does not address wear or color or size or shape that bonding or veneers do. It is also relatively expensive, driving people to go to direct-to-consumer aligner companies that aren’t really candidates for such a treatment. Others have been going to dentists and getting their healthy enamel shaved off their teeth to get veneers because they haven’t positioned them correctly, to begin with. Catherine believes that it doesn’t have to be this way.

By utilizing digital smile design and clear aligners combined, the Smile Concierge Club can office the absolute best cosmetic dentistry that values the health of people’s teeth without cutting any corners, while also providing convenience.

The concierge company initially started offering their services to Miss USA titleholders to accommodate their busy traveling schedules. Over time, they evolved and managed to get an office space for their operations in New York. There is still a high demand for concierge services. The company needed a home base, so their first studio is opening despite the pandemic. However, they only see one person at a time. People can also ask for their services from the comfort of their homes.

However, they are not a direct-to-consumer company. Each client receives a completely comprehensive service designed and overseen by Dr. Catherine Muldoon. The Smile Concierge Club can access from anywhere utilizing teledentistry, making them the only company that resembles a DTC. They also have a high-end boutique oversight without cutting any corners and offering the best dental care.

The Smile Concierge Club has significantly been successful in its run despite being a new company. However, Dr. Catherine Muldoon has set her sights on growing the company to become a multinational brand that offers high quality cosmetic dental care.
