Victoria Towers comments on the rise of the multi-let and mid-box market for Property Week
Multi-let and mid-box industrial and logistics developments serve a vast array of tenants, from small-time mechanics offering car tune-ups to delivery firms seeking last-mile distribution centres. And while this section of the market might not attract the biggest industrial and logistics occupiers paying top market rents, it has started to gain a reputation for high rental growth and for delivering decent returns for investors. It is also seeing occupiers seeking higher-quality units.
Alongside the comments of other real estate leaders, Victoria Towers adds her thoughts where she warns that the emergence of higher-quality units in the market has made potential occupiers “more forthright” in their demands and willing to break off negotiations on lets.
