The Owner User Boom: Inside South Florida's Industrial Real Estate Market
If a building works for an owner user, the investor doesn't stand a chance. I sat down with Tom O'Loughlin and Michael Oretsky to talk about what's really happening in the owner-user vs. investor market right now — and the numbers are wild. Users are paying 30-60% more than investors for the right building, sometimes more. Once pricing guidance goes out, investors evaporate and owner users walk right in. We also got into how these deals are getting funded (roughly a 50/50 split between cash a...

South Florida industrial: Q2 numbers are catching up to reality
South Florida industrial: Q2 numbers are catching up to reality. Dade's absorption hit ~850K SF, Broward construction is down to historic lows (1.2M SF), and big deals signed late in the quarter haven't even hit the stats yet.

What Do Investors Really Underwrite for Rent Growth?

He also broke down what really matters when evaluating buyers beyond price: capitalization, track record, financing, and certainty of close. What about you? What are your thoughts on small bay warehouses? ...

Inside Real CRE Lease Negotiations | Industrial Deals, TI Tricks & Escalation Wars
I sat down with Tom and Mike to pull back the curtain on what’s really moving the South Florida industrial market right now, from tenants shopping renewals a year (or two) out, to commencement timelines stretching from weeks to months, to TI allowances quietly morphing into rent credit piggy banks. We get into why landlords are fighting tooth and nail to keep tenants in their seats, why escalation rates above 3% are becoming a real sticking point on bigger deals, and why permitting de...
