Retail Valuation "Zoning / ITZA / ZA"

Hi guys,

I have an exam for a big shop tomorrow that I would be presenting to the head of investments (CBRE/JLL/C&W...)

I'm supposed to do a SWOT analysis + a pricing appraisal / cashflow. It's a mixed-use asset retail+office value add strategy. I've never worked on retail and I've discovered the zoning thing ZA / ITZA... The thing is I'm stuck regarding my rent for the property as I have a table with new lease in the area with a price per sq/f for offices but for the retail assets it's just a price around 1000 ZA:

"Asset 1 / Tenant 1 / Date 1 / GBP 1000ZA

Asset 2 / Tenant 2 / Date 2 / GBP 1100ZA

Asset 3 / Tenant 3 / Date 3 / GBP 990ZA

..."

In this area from the reports I've found the annual rent per sq/f is around 750 & 2175 as of Q4 2020 in GBP per sq/f

GBP1000ZA = Zone A rent = GBP 1000/y ? /month? Do I have to model the zone depending on the net leasable area and find a price based on the architect plans?

How am I supposed to find a price per sq/f for my leasing?

Thanks in advance for any help guys!

He also gave me helpful perspective on how to differentiate myself during the recruiting process and make my conversations with professionals more meaningful. I feel like I have a clearer understanding of what I should focus on and concrete next steps. This was overall a helpful and valuable conversation. ”

Real Estate Mock Interview

“Nick was fantastic. He didn’t just glance at my resume and give me generic advice—he explained exactly why it wasn’t telling the story I wanted it to tell, then helped me figure out how to fix it. He pushed me to be more intentional about how I talk about my experience and gave me concrete steps to prepare for interviews, from tailoring my resume to practicing financial modeling. I also appreciated how candid he was. When I asked about real estate capital markets versus sales and trading, he gave me his honest opinion while being clear about his own perspective. He shared interview guides, answered all my questions, and offered to do a more detailed mock interview if I move forward with JLL. I left with a lot of work to do, but also a much clearer idea of how to do it. I’d absolutely recommend talking with Nick.”
