"From the very beginning Gary Broidis has been the consummate professional. From appropriating valuing the office building we were selling, through the marketing process, negotiations, right through closing, we knew that Gary had our back. There is no question that we would use Gary when we have an opportunity to either buy or sell properties in the future. I want to publicly thank him for his superior efforts on our behalf."

"Sometimes, it is important for me to know my limits.  I know that I don't know the everyday ins and outs of commercial real estate.  Just because I am a lawyer and know how to read a lease does not mean that I know what to look to include.  Frankly, Gary, you saved a great bundle for me that I never would have thought to include, delete, or bargain.  You truly know your stuff.  I was more than impressed, but grateful."

“Since 2003, Atlantic Commercial Group has handled the office and retail leasing for many of our South Florida properties.  During the past seven years, their market knowledge and diligence have proven an invaluable resource in our efforts to lease up space within the assets we re-positioned.  Their efforts included the introduction of our properties to many national retailers as well as local merchants creating a viable tenant mix and improving NOI.  In addition, they successfully renewed many of our existing tenants maintaining stability within the portfolio.  I recommend Atlantic Commercial Group to property owners with holdings in the South Florida market.”

Study: Movie theater visits decreased 10% in 2025

U.S. movie theater visits fell by at least 10% year-over-year in 2025 when comparing second and third quarter data from 2024 with the same periods in 2025, according to location intelligence provider Kalibrate. Major cinema chains experienced steeper declines with average visit volumes down approximately 15%, including Regal Cinemas declining 12.2% and Century Theatres dropping 20.3%, while independent theaters showed greater resilience with only an 8.6% decrease. Households earning over $100,000 annually showed signs of pulling back more than other income groups, notable since moviegoing has historically skewed toward those with more disposable income. Highly urbanized areas experienced the largest year-over-year declines with visits down 18%, while rural and exurban areas saw a much smaller decline of just 5%, and several Western states including Idaho, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming posted increases of more than 5%.

Luxury conglomerate Kering temporarily closed stores in UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar, while Amazon shuttered Abu Dhabi fulfillment operations and suspended regional deliveries. Apple's Dubai stores remained closed, H&M shut Bahrain and Israel locations, and consumer goods group Reckitt closed its Bahrain manufacturing site while instructing all Middle East employees to work from home. Luxury stocks LVMH, Hermès, and Richemont declined 4% to 6.5% as investors assessed the impact on a region that represented luxury's strongest growth market in recent years, accounting for 5% to 10% of global luxury spending. 

Senate Advances Sweeping Housing Bill, Includes Ban On Institutional Buyers Of Single-Family Homes

The Senate advanced the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act with an 84-6 bipartisan vote, combining affordability and housing production measures with a Trump administration proposal to ban institutional investment in single-family homes. The bill defines institutional investors as companies owning 350 or more homes and includes exemptions for homes built to rent, with the White House indicating President Trump would sign it if passed as written.  Key provisions include simplifying National Environmental Protection Act review processes to reduce construction delays, increasing Federal Housing Administration multifamily loan limits, changing manufactured housing definitions to spur construction, and supporting housing development in opportunity zones and Community Development Block Grant jurisdictions. The legislation, authored by Senators Tim Scott and Elizabeth Warren, still requires a final Senate vote and must be reconciled with the House bill before reaching the president's desk.
