Metro Vancouver Industrial Overview (Spring 2020)

While forthcoming statistical indicators for the second quarter of 2020 will provide a first full look at the initial impacts of COVID-19, the benchmark data from the first quarter of 2020 highlight a regional industrial market that posted near-record-low vacancy and achieved record-high rental rates while persistent strong demand for industrial space on a sale and lease basis had maintained new construction activity at a frenzied pace.
