Sometimes it’s the little details that make the biggest impact. In this episode, I share the small but powerful changes she’s made to lease her shopping center spaces faster. From adding "Text for Info" to her leasing signs to setting up a quasi leasing office inside vacant spaces, I explain how these simple tweaks attract more interest and create opportunities to connect with prospective tenants.

I also cover practical tips like keeping utilities on to make spaces more inviting, using a single master key for all vacancies, and updating flyer images to reflect the most popular tenants. Whether you’re trying to lease a few spaces or manage a larger portfolio, these ideas will help you present your properties better and make leasing easier.
