Interesting industrial real estate stat from Globe Street regarding small bay & flex industrial spaces: Shallow bay and flex industrial spaces under 100,000sf represent 41.9% of the industrial market and have a national vacancy rate of 4%. There is abundant opportunity in this segment where investors aren't competing with institutional capital.
Interesting statistic - very surprised to hear small bay makes up 41.9%. Seems high to me. I’d argue instead of competing with the institutional investor, your battling the retail investors, who are sometimes tougher - less data, more emotion.
Small businesses still make up a large percentage of the labor pool and the quantity of businesses in the US. I would bet most of this space is rented by small businesses.
