A new multi-story warehouse being built in Chicago. This reminds me of multi-story retail and some of it's downfalls. Can you find tenants willing to lease? Can you achieve the rental rates needed to justify the higher construction cost? With the ability to always build a little further out, we do not have the same land constraints in Dallas/FW. Although, as demand for larger warehouses continues to grow as does our population (2020-2023: +423,000) in densely populated areas, especially e-commerce distribution, we could see similar developments explored.

Did you know tenants in older properties with limited vertical space could be missing out on significant savings? By embracing vertical shelving tech and relocating from buildings with clear heights of 22 feet or less, substantial savings become feasible, even after considering initial capital expenditures. #marcusmillichap #3plwarehouse #CRE #warehouse #industrial #distribution #leasing #sales #logisticsolutions #investments

As a born and raised Chicagoan (now residing in Austin), it’s pretty cool to see the groundbreaking development of its first multi-story warehouse at 1237 W. Division Street. Highlights of the project: ◾ Situated near the Loop and North Side, this 1.2 million-square-foot project offers unparalleled access for tenants serving a dense consumer base. ◾ With ramps and parking for cars, vans, trucks, and semis on multiple floors, this vertical warehouse is designed for efficient logistics, even in challenging weather conditions. ◾ The design doubles the available storage space within a limited 11.5 acre footprint – a significant advantage in a high-demand area. We have seen multi-story distribution centers built in Asia and Europe for decades (some projects reaching as high as 5 stories tall). In recent years, developers in the U.S. have followed suit in densely populated cities such as Seattle, New York, San Francisco, and now Chicago. It’ll be interesting to see how many developers start adopting this approach as demand continues to surge. #chicagoindustrialrealestate #innovativelogistics #urbanwarehouse #realestatetrends #industrialrealestate #industrialtenants

Because businesses provide products and services in /to a constantly evolving / dynamic market, arises the need for ever receptive, adaptive, self-correcting systems. Like in any other system, all these constant evolutions must be tested for ease & effectiveness resulting into uniting the company for better efficiency achieved through my favorite management function of #consolidation Popularly defined :the process of uniting :the quality or state of being united specifically :the unification of two or more corporations by dissolution of existing ones and creation of a single new corporation. Should never remain a singular #topmanagment function, instead a holistic and inherent in-company culture for every organisation. Where tightening things up, plugging all in between, sharpening of process cycles, streamlining gaps & processes all happen periodically.

Is your warehouse lease up for renewal soon? There are things that you should be doing now to prepare and secure a favorable negotiating position. ✅ Start preparing early. You want to negotiate ahead of time to give yourself leverage and avoid an uncomfortable position. It's not uncommon for tenants to start negotiating a year in advance of renewal. ✅ Seek out comparable properties. What are similar spaces leasing for? You might also find that it may be worth moving to a new space. ✅ Ask your current landlord for improvements. Even smaller projects such as new paint can make a difference and it's a win-win. You stay longer in the property and the landlord improves their investment. Do you have questions about your upcoming #leaserenewal? Need Guidance? Give us a call, we'd be happy to assist. 786-433-2380 #industrialrealestate #industrialbroker #southfloridarealestate #industrialproperty
