Flight to 🏆 High vacancy rates in the U.S. office market are often misunderstood. The aftermath of the COVID pandemic and the shift to remote work have led to a decrease in demand. However, the real challenge lies in the oversupply of outdated and functionally obsolete office buildings, coupled with an undersupply of modern offices that cater to the evolving needs of tenants. The top end of the market continues to benefit from flight to quality. #Trophy #CBRE #CRE https://lnkd.in/e_Bci9gp

Miami Office Market Resilience Miami’s office market is experiencing a unique situation where there’s a notable increase in the amount of new office space being delivered (12-month deliveries), even though there’s also a negative net absorption, meaning more space is being vacated than leased. This has led to an increase in vacancy to 8.8 %, still better than most markets throughout the country. Despite these challenges, rent levels have remained stable, which suggests that the demand for high-quality office space is still there, reflecting resilience in this market. #MiamiRealEstate #OfficeMarketTrends #CommercialRealEstate

As Office Construction Slows, Availability Starts to Tighten according to CoStar As office construction slows down and leasing activity improves, the availability of premium office space is tightening across key markets. Nationally, this phenomenon has resulted in the office vacancy to availability gap shrinking below levels last seen near the end of 2019. Data shows that occupiers are still moving away from older office buildings as they search for premium, first-generation space. This dynamic is reshaping the office leasing landscape, making it more crucial than ever for tenants with top-tier taste to secure spaces before options dwindle further. With fewer options, many tenants may elect to stay where they are, a positive development for current landlords.
