Reno/Sparks Revs into High Gear

MR_RNO_IND_20Q4_175x227

Reno’s industrial market ended 2020 on a high note, posting 1.5 million square feet of net absorption in the fourth quarter and 5.4 million square feet during the year. Strong tenant demand has pushed warehouse/distribution asking rents up 16 percent year-over-year. Robust leasing activity and minimal availability will continue to increase rents throughout 2021. The encouraging momentum throughout the region, with new companies entering the market and more development underway, should combine to propel Reno into one of the top performing industrial markets in the country in 2021.
