Fort Lauderdale’s industrial market closed Q4 2025 with some of the tightest fundamentals in Florida. Asking rents held near record levels at $17.04 psf/NNN, while leasing activity rose to 1.3 million square feet, supported by limited new supply. Vacancy edged up to 6.7%, yet remained the lowest among major Florida markets, reinforcing Fort Lauderdale’s position as a landlord-favored environment. Investment activity accelerated meaningfully in 2025, with sales volume increasing 48% year-over-year to $1.69 billion, ranking second statewide. As capital rotated out of Miami and Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale emerged as a preferred alternative offering liquidity and relative value. At the same time, a more selective development pipeline has kept new supply in check, supporting long-term market stability.
