LOS ANGELES, Aug. 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Westwood Financial, a leading retail real estate investment firm, announced updates today on its financial and operational results for the three months ended June 30, 2021, which included:

- Executed 19 new leases totaling 36,000 square feet in Q2 2021
- Executed 37 renewals totaling 85,000 square feet in Q2 2021; renewal spreads are +1.7%

Mark Bratt, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our Q2 2021 results show that our grocery-anchored portfolio continues to remain strong and resilient. Our leasing statistics are at pre-pandemic levels and we are seeing strong leasing velocity; furthermore, we've continued to achieve above expectations on our deferred rent collections." As the transactions environment becomes more competitive, Westwood remains focused on quality, grocery anchored centers in the Southeast. In mid-August, Westwood is anticipating closing on a disposition of a non-strategic asset in the Atlanta MSA. Mr. Bratt stated that he is "confident that 2021 will be a strong year for us as the first half of the year has reaffirmed our belief in our grocery anchored platform and long-term strategy. The executive team and I are committed to generating attractive total investor returns as we exit this unprecedented environment."
