  • Developing New Industrial Properties, Warehouses, and Truck Terminals
    Dec 12 2023
    Tell us about Modiv and what you do to support manufacturing in America. What kinds of clients use your services? (companies that don’t want to invest in real estate, companies in transition, etc?) Does this include other industrial properties such as trucking terminals and warehouses? How do these properties differ from one another? Let’s talk about the language of real estate. What is a long-term net lease? What is a REIT? Where are most of your properties located? Why the heartland? What industries are most active now? Automotive? Plastics? Semiconductors? There is a lot of buzz about a coming “manufacturing supercycle” because of the billions of dollars being pumped into the economy through the Inflation Reduction Act, the Chips and Science Act, and the Infrastructure Act – and from Americans’ preference for products made in America. Is this translating into an upturn in demand in industrial real estate? Follow the Rethink Reshoring Podcast Other FreightWaves Shows Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
