Industrial Property Availability
![]()
Due to current favourable businesses trading conditions leading to demand for all types of industrial properties including land, there has been a decrease in available stock levels of most types of industrial property.
Due to low-interest rates, the biggest demand is to purchase properties of all sizes. As previously pointed out, owners of industrial properties are somewhat reluctant to sell or would prefer to lease out a property. This has created a lack of available stock and in particular investments for sale.
Interestingly, the number of properties for lease is also declining because some companies that cannot purchase properties are leasing instead.
It is expected that as demand in general is good, the supply will dwindle and prices and rents will continue to increase.
Those selling industrial properties are now finding the market is providing great sales results
