Stuart Tanz, president and CEO of Retail Opportunity Investments Corp. (NYSE: ROIC), joined REIT.com for a CEO Spotlight video interview during REITWeek 2014: NAREIT’s Investor Forum, held in New York.
Tanz was asked about the level of competition in the transactions market and sourcing for potential acquisitions. With capital “readily available,” Tanz said competition for available assets has intensified, but he feels ROIC’s extended history on the West Coast has given the company an advantage.
