Mall owners and property managers are sitting on a massively underutilized asset: their parking lots. With brick-and-mortar retail in a state of reinvention, many shopping centers are looking for creative ways to boost revenue. One of the easiest wins? Leasing outdoor space to short-term tenants.
Carnivals, circuses, pop-up food festivals, farmers markets, RV sales events, and seasonal activations can bring life—and income—back to your property. These short-term tenants are looking for space with visibility, access, and parking. You already have that. What you might not have is a process or a partner to help.
Short-term rentals for parking lots can generate tens of thousands of dollars per month with minimal capital investment. They can also drive foot traffic to interior tenants, add vibrancy to the center, and create new relationships with local operators. The best part? These activations are flexible, recurring, and adaptable based on your calendar and tenant mix.
At KevaWorks, we help shopping centers unlock new revenue with short-term users who pay for space they only need for a few days or weeks. If you’re not monetizing your lot, you’re leaving money on the table.
