OC Industrial Shows Early Signs of Stabilization

by John Nelson March 13, 2026

— By Wes Hunnicutt and Matt Moore of Stream Realty Partners — Following a record-low vacancy of 1.4 percent in fourth-quarter 2022, Orange County’s industrial market has experienced a sustained period of rising vacancy and negative net absorption, driven by broader economic caution, elevated interest rates and softening demand for space. However, it also showed signs of slight improvement at the end of 2025. Vacancy stood at 6.1 percent at the end of last year, down slightly quarter over quarter from 6.2 percent, but higher than 5.5 percent 12 months ago. For context, vacancy immediately prior to the pandemic was 3.3 percent. Availability, which includes all spaces listed on the market for lease, came in at 7.5 percent at the end of last year. A defining feature of recent quarters has been low tenant demand for space, with seven consecutive quarters of negative absorption. This reflects cautious tenant behavior as businesses delay expansion decisions amid economic headwinds and higher borrowing costs. Fourth-quarter 2025 ended this streak with the market experiencing positive net absorption of 285,000 square feet. Larger distribution and logistics facilities experienced increased pressure and longer lease-up timelines, whereas smaller spaces of less than 100,000 square feet have performed …
