What happens when you build a “reverse CoStar” for tenants?
In this episode of Commercial Real Estate Secrets, Aviva Sonenreich sits down with Rafael Weiss, CEO and founder of Sytes, the commercial real estate platform changing how landlords, developers, brokers, and tenants connect.
Instead of listing available properties, Sytes flips the traditional CRE model by showing where tenants actually want to expand. The platform allows landlords, developers, brokers, and investors to identify real tenant demand before deals are tied up, creating a faster and more proactive approach to site selection and commercial real estate development.
Key Topics Discussed:
- How Sytes is creating a “reverse CoStar” marketplace for tenant demand
- Why developers should identify tenants before putting land under contract
- The future of retail site selection, QSR expansion, and small parcel development
- How technology and online platforms are changing commercial real estate brokerage
- Why visibility, data, and digital leverage are becoming competitive advantages in CRE
