Despite the unsettled economic environment, Q2 closed with historically low vacancy rates and increasing rental net asking rates in the GTA.
Industrial leasing markets in the short-to-midterm are projected to remain unchanged, with both new construction and existing space rental rates forecasted to continue increasing – while industrial market sales remain uncertain.
Net asking rents in the GTA increased 32% as compared to the previous year, coupled with a historic vacancy rate of 0.9%. The GTA currently has ~14 million square feet under construction, meaning those focussed on new developments should prepare for net asking rents significantly higher than the overall rate in the GTA.
