SLC’s Industrial Market Boasts Stabilizing Conditions, Growing Owner-User Momentum

by John Nelson

— By Rebecca Lloyd of Cushman & Wakefield — Salt Lake City’s industrial market ended 2025 in a transitional period defined by rising vacancy, shifting demand across product types, and heightened activity in both peripheral submarkets and the owner‑user segment.  Overall vacancy climbed to 7.9 percent, driven by more than 8.5 million square feet of new warehouse/distribution deliveries since early 2024, nearly half of which remain available. This is particularly apparent in the North West submarket, which continues to dominate the region’s industrial footprint. Despite this supply influx, tenant demand held firm with 5.9 million square feet of new leasing activity recorded in 2025. Absorption remained steady across small and mid-sized facilities, with monthly net asking rents remaining stable at $0.80 to $0.81 per square foot.   Smaller 10,000- to 100,00-square-foot buildings posted the tightest availability at 6 percent vacancy, while larger big box properties over 100,000 square feet saw vacancy rise to 15.7 percent, widening the performance gap between segments. Land scarcity, power constraints and elevated development costs continue to limit opportunities in core Salt Lake submarkets, forcing more tenants and developers to pivot toward Utah County. This is where a sizeable 4-million-square-foot proposed development pipeline is helping narrow …

Different Opportunities: Minneapolis, St. Paul and the Suburbs

by Kristin Harlow

By Jesse Tollison, Transwestern When analyzing the Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) metro area, urbanicity plays a deep role in understanding the opportunities for making a significant impact and profit in the commercial real estate markets. This is not a story unique to Minnesota’s largest metropolitan area, where roughly half of the state’s inhabitants live, but MSP serves as an illuminating case study as to how widely opportunity can vary between urban and suburban markets.  Indeed, many areas across the country exhibit stark differences between their urban and suburban commercial real estate markets, but those differences cannot be uniformly applied to each metro. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of local minutiae lends tremendous insight when evaluating opportunities.  Developers, investors, tenants, brokers and every other player in the commercial real estate world are paying close attention to the diverging urban and suburban trends as they assess the market for opportunities. In such a fragmented market, decision-makers are using more data than ever to inform their strategies. High-level views aren’t enough to benchmark a property’s performance, and it’s important to understand the localized trends when evaluating an opportunity.  Industrial history As the historical industrial hub of Minnesota, the Twin Cities’ urban core has many …
