New Jersey's Industrial Leasing: A Signal of Post-Pandemic Resilience and Recovery

Industrial leasing activity in New Jersey year-to-date is on pace for its best performance since the conclusion of the Covid-19 Pandemic. This trend indicates the robustness of the industrial real estate sector, suggesting increased economic stability and continued confidence among investors.

Asking rents have surged by nearly 100% since 2020 and an impressive 250% since 2015. This sustained growth underscores the sector’s resilience in an increasingly uncertain economic climate, emphasizing its attractiveness for investors and tenants alike.
