When Malls Go Down, Neighborhoods Go Down: Why Bad Property Management Hurts Your Home Value
What happens when the shopping mall down the street is neglected, security disappears, and the parking lot turns into a late-night hotspot for crime? The answer is simple: your home value takes a hit.
In this episode, we dig into the connection between poor property management and the decline of surrounding neighborhoods. From Arizona Mills to Paradise Valley Mall to strip centers across the Valley, the story is the same: when owners and managers let things slide, the ripple effect lands squarely on homeowners.
We’ll cover:
- Why neglected malls and strip centers drag down property values in nearby communities
- How crime, loitering, and visual decline hurt neighborhood safety and perception
- The accountability gap: absentee owners, complacent property managers, and government slow to act
- Why even million-dollar neighborhoods aren’t immune to the impact
- The movement we’re starting to demand real accountability from property owners and managers
This isn’t about politics or waiting on government bureaucracy. It’s about everyday citizens stepping up to protect their investments, raise property values, and restore pride in their communities.
If you’ve ever driven by a declining shopping center near your home and thought, “Why isn’t anyone doing anything about this?” — this episode is for you.
👉 Tune in, learn how property management directly affects your wealth, and discover how we can all play a role in turning things around.
