Nashville Industrial Conference

Why You Should Attend This Event

Why This Matters:

Nashville's Industrial market has shown strong resilience to macroeconomic factors that have hit other types of assets locally, regionally, and nationally. Despite heightened interest rates, inflation, and supply that has come online, as of Q3 2024 there remains 4.7 Million SF of speculative development for an estimated 6 Million SF of tenant demand. Rental rates are anticipated to continue seeing growth, and the economic outlook for Nashville and the Southeastern United States remains positive. Despite these rosy factors, leasing volume has slowed, with most leases driving the market situated under 50K SF. This event will outline where the market sits, how obstacles can be overcome, and where value is being found. 

Join us as we discuss strategies being implemented to elevate leasing velocity in the mid-sized and larger box ecosystem, how much rental growth the market can support based on demand, and where valuations sit for stabilized assets for investors looking to acquire in the market. Our panelists will also discuss land pricing and availability for the next wave of projects, what scope and scale the supply poised to come online in the active pipeline is comprised of, and how the current generation of assets are being designed and delivered for the tenant base as it exists. Join us and some of the Nashville Industrial market's preeminent leaders who will detail the most pressing issues to better equip you and your firms in the pursuit of your next deal.
