MARKET TRENDS
- Although new product continues to come onto the market through new deliveries, many occupiers are opting to remain in their current locations and renew.
- Development activity has slowed, with the under-construction pipeline down 2.8 million square feet (msf) year over year. This trend is expected to continue as occupiers work through newly delivered space that remains available.
- The vacancy rate climbed 90 basis points (bps) this quarter and 270 bps year over year, showing no sign of deceleration.
