  • NYC had a retail center in one of its richest neighborhoods, but when it shut down there was debate as to why. Was the rent too high? Was there not enough foot traffic? Well today NYC is back, there's foot traffic, rents are reduced, and the stores are still empty, for some reason.

Also NYC has a culture of minding your business so even when crimes happen a lot of people say or do nothing that’s why our subway announcement literally say speak up if you see something cuz New Yorkers don’t . Also New York state doesn’t have a lot of jail space forcing them to release people . There a lot of problems at play from migrants to it being hard to build new jails or shelters cuz no one wants to live next to them from the police not doing there job due to corruption. to the corruption in the government i’ll give it that though theft is very high and other petty crimes are high in the city actual violent crime isn’t as high as people think . I’ve seen all the petty crimes and stuff but actually violent crime like homcides and stuff are actually very low for a major city in the US as someone who lives here .

    In the city I live in, shoplifting an item of any value (as little as 1 yen, the equivalent of 0.65 CENTS) will bring down an arrest and prosecution in a court system with a 99.4% conviction rate. Additionally, shopkeepers do not let it slide even if, upon being caught, the thief offers to pay for the item.
    Oh, and if you are a foreigner, the police can hold you in their cells for up to a full year before trial.

    @fidel2xl Před 11 dny +2

    Good video. But a couple reasons why many of the owners/landlords of those vacant storefronts can afford to keep the properties not rented for months or even years, is the fact that typically high end Commercial Real Estate (CRE) like the ones shown in the video are usually rented to top tier commercial tenants for long term leases (10 year to 25 year leases) whereby the lease terms are guaranteed by the tenant and backed by a bank guarantee. Therefore, if for instance, MacDonalds or Nike Store etc had rented those Commercial spaces under a 25 year lease (with a 3% yearly rent increase built in to the lease), if after 5 or 8 years or whatever the Tenant (MacDonalds or Nike Store) decided that business in that area was not feasible therefore they would close that location, the owner/landlord would STILL be paid by the Tenant (MacDonalds/Nike Store etc) for the remainder of the lease, even though the property is vacant. Usually what happens is, the Tenant (MacDonalds/Nike etc) may even buy out the remaining term of the lease. So, if there is still for instance 15 years left on the lease, the top tier tenant and the owner/;landlord may come to an agreement in which the Tenant pays the landlord a discounted lump sum (For instance $25 Million), and the owner/landlord can even still bring in a NEW high end tenant to lease the property.
    There's a very good chance that the owners of the vacant Commercial Properties are either STILL being paid the lease payments monthly from the tenants that left. OR, the tenants simply paid the owners significant lump sum payments, thus ending any future obligations.

      If I recall correctly, it's because of how the law works. Being charged with a crime and being found guilty of a crime are two different things. A person who is being arrested is still considered "innocent" until proven guilty. Their identity is obscured to prevent prejudicing court process. After they're found guilty, then it's fair game.

    Okay, as someone who lives in NYC, this guy is not beng honest. While there is crime in a city of over 7.5 million people, the city is not overwhelming by street gangs, doing as smash and grab in local stores. This is not San Francisco. In fact, many of these videos he's showing are not even NYC.
    The real reason stores are closing is because of less foot traffic in the City, you have a lot of people working from home or they are on a hybrid work schedule so they don't need to commute to the City, which means less foot traffic in the stores, resulting in an economic impact.
    I used to respect this guys channel when he focused on real estate and apartment hunting in NYC. Now, it's just trash.
