MyEListing.com, a free-to-use commercial real estate data and listings platform, recently published a report examining how some office space landlords have fought back against the sector’s newfound woes amidst remote work schedules and falling demand.
According to the report, hospitality conversions hold the most promise for distressed office properties. “Where [office] properties are not a good fit for residential conversion,” states the report, “property owners are increasingly looking at hospitality as a viable alternative due to the challenges associated with transforming office spaces into residential residences.”

The report concludes that, so far, office-to-hospitality conversions tend to provide the greatest long-term benefits, even amidst the potential blunders of doing so.
