The Strategic Shift: Transforming Heliports into Dual-Use Mobility Assets
Existing heliports infrastructure can be strategically upgraded to serve dual purposes, accommodating traditional helicopters while preparing for eVTOLs.
This transition represents more than just technological advancement, it's a practical approach to enhancing asset value. The conversion process requires relatively modest investment compared to new construction, yet delivers significant benefits, from increased property valuation to new revenue opportunities.
Major markets are already adapting their infrastructure, recognizing that early adoption positions properties as future mobility hubs. The time to evaluate portfolios and engage with operators is now, before the shift becomes a competitive necessity rather than a strategic advantage.
For commercial real estate professionals, this isn't about speculation, it's about recognizing an emerging asset class that bridges today's needs with tomorrow's transportation ecosystem.
