Description

In this episode, I interview RJ Fischer, Director of Acquisitions for Doors and Spaces, about the emerging asset class of Small Bay Flex. RJ shares his journey into this sector, which was informed by his background in appraisal.

We discuss how the market for this type of industrial real estate is still evolving, noting that "the information is very fragmented", making open information sharing crucial for the industry's growth. The conversation highlights that the demand for these spaces is "stronger than ever" and that there's a growing "buzz" around Small Bay Flex investments. RJ explains that Doors and Spaces is "trying to build a brand" by focusing on strategic acquisition and development. The design philosophy behind their projects focuses on creating functional spaces for small businesses, with an emphasis on "doors, not docks"

RJ also discusses the increasing interest from larger equity firms and how AI is seen as a tool to enhance real estate strategies, particularly in market research and decision-making.
