Which sets them up for WeWork subsidiaries to default on any building that's more than X months old and unprofitable. That's a terrible deal for the landlord, if the landlord priced it as a 15 year deal instead of a one year. Absolutely great for WeWork. Terrible for anyone who wants offices, since WeWork will sit on a large chunk of the market.
- RhodesianHunter 8y agoIf WeWork subsidiaries were defaulting right and left they wouldn't be able to get these deals. They aren't, so they are. Your comment seems to imply that the landowner has no choice.
- lancesells 8y agoAgreed. If, and when, they default it would most likely make news in the real estate / tech sector. Something seems too good to be true here but so far they haven't closed any locations.
- blackstrips 8y agoMaybe WeWork is picking up left-over locations. Some rent is better than no rent. If the landlord could find a better tenant, WeWork would have zero chance to rent any of it.
