The industrial real estate market continues to strengthen – but it’s undergoing a major transformation

On one hand there is 1 million sq m of new warehouses this year alone, but on the other hand demand is decreasing. The length of leases required by developers’ increases to a minimum of five years versus the departure of some tenants from the e-commerce and automotive sector. Securing extensive leases and pre-leases by large logistics companies versus the need to sublet part of these premises. The growing importance of energy-efficient buildings and the emphasis on the lowest possible operating costs. The results of the third quarter on the domestic industrial real estate market show that the transformation of this entire segment has already begun, according to the recent report published by the real estate consulting company, 108 AGENCY.
