How You'll Do More Business: Asking rents for Greater Boston industrial properties have risen nearly 15% in the past year with 2.5m SF of space leased in the second quarter. With a vacancy rate under 2%, CBRE predict that industrial rents will rise another 7-10% in 2022. As this asset class continues on its growth trajectory, is this sustainable? Enhance your business by understanding how investor and development activity is adapting to meet industrial supply in land starved Boston. Plus, optimize your current assets, and gain insight into actionable strategies to meet the evolving needs of the end user and future-proof your business to stay ahead of the curve in this booming asset class.
