Joey Agree, CEO of Agree Realty, discussed the company's strategy and market outlook in a September 2026 interview with Brad Thomas. He noted that Agree Realty has seen approximately $34 million in open market insider purchases over the past 36 months, which he described as demonstrating alignment with shareholders. Agree said the company's portfolio is about 66.5% investment grade and that its watch list of tenants is smaller than it has ever been, citing a lack of material concerns. He also expressed preferences for certain retailers, including Chick-fil-A, Aldi, Publix, and Wegmans, while noting the company is not a big fan of movie theaters. Agree commented on recent Federal Reserve rate actions, saying he believed the hike was necessary to preserve the Fed's credibility and that it would likely be part of a sequence rather than a one-time move. He also addressed industry trends, noting that firms such as JP Morgan, GSA, and Goldman have recently announced net lease platforms. Agree expressed a view that net lease REITs should maintain simple structures, favoring on-balance-sheet acquisitions over off-balance sheet joint ventures or private capital, citing historical outcomes in the REIT sector. He also suggested that the current market period, with highs near records and higher rates, might be viewed with hindsight in about ten years as a historically unique time.
