On this episode of the Built2Suit Podcast, Greg Simpson sits down with Michael Boyarski, commercial real estate agent at Welco Realty, to explore the trends reshaping Florida and the broader commercial real estate market.

Michael explains why Florida continues to attract developers from the Northeast, highlighting tax advantages, quality of life, and a more business-friendly development environment. The conversation dives deep into one of the fastest-growing sectors in the country—youth sports tourism—and how large athletic facilities, hotels, and mixed-use amenities are transforming travel and retail.

The episode also covers cultural diversity in retail, public-private partnerships, the evolving role of AI in real estate, and why integrity and long-term relationships matter more than ever in dealmaking.

Topics include:

• Why Florida remains a magnet for developers
• The rapid rise of youth sports tourism
• Public-private partnerships and redevelopment opportunities
• Cultural diversity and specialty retail growth
• How AI will (and won’t) change commercial real estate
• Integrity, reputation, and saying no to bad deals

These are the voices that move the market. This is BUILT2SUIT.
