Yardi's Peter Kolaczynski shares Coworking Growth Data Drivers","description":"Most people don\u2019t spend 13 years quietly building one of the most comprehensive datasets in commercial real estate. But that\u2019s exactly what Peter Kolaczynski has been doing at Yardi. In this episode, Jamie sits down with Peter Kolaczynski, Associate Director of Yardi, to unpack what\u2019s really happening beneath the surface of the coworking and office markets. And this one gets\u2026 data-heavy in the best way. We get into: Why coworking is still only ~2.3% of total office space\u2014and why that number could 5x How Yardi tracks over 80,000 office buildings and what that unlocks for the industry The surprising reality of physical office occupancy (hint: it\u2019s still under 60%) Why enterprise demand for flexible space keeps growing despite return-to-office pressure How AI could reshape not just coworking\u2014but total office demand One of the most interesting takeaways: even if office demand shrinks overall, coworking may expand. Why? Because uncertainty drives flexibility\u2014and flexibility is exactly what coworking offers. We also get into: Office-to-residential conversions. Why \u201cdowntown\u201d may matter less than ever. The rise of smaller, hyper-local office hubs. And why building owners\u2014not just operators\u2014may drive the next wave of growth. If you care about where the office market is actually heading (not just headlines), this is a must-listen.
