We Went to Vegas… for CRE Research (S4:1)

Mike and Marc just got back from the NAI Global Convention in Las Vegas, and this episode of In the CRE Vault is a recap of what they learned—and maybe a little of what happened after the sessions ended.
They dive into how being part of NAI Global gives them a unique perspective on the market. One thing they consistently see: trends that hit major markets often show up in smaller markets like Lincoln about six months later.
At the convention, Mike attended a standout medical office breakout session and shares key takeaways from that sector, while Marc spent time in the industrial sessions, where the big message was that vacancy rates may finally be stabilizing. Another topic that kept coming up? Data centers—and the massive demand being driven by artificial intelligence.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Vegas trip without a little fun. There may have been some craps played, some dancing, and plenty of conversations with brokers from across the country.
The episode also explores the growing role of AI in commercial real estate. With technology moving fast and no real “off switch,” Mike and Marc ask the question a lot of people are starting to wonder: Are we becoming too dependent on tech?
A little Vegas, a lot of CRE insight, and a few stories from the convention floor—this one’s a fun one.
