Manhattan Office Market Trends & Analysis
1. Tenants have the advantage when negotiating new leases and lease renewals.
2. There is intense competition among building owners to rent vacant spaces.
3. Successful companies are leasing high quality offices in amenity-rich buildings at favorable terms. Class A properties are competing by offering a combination of Tenant Incentives. These include: (a) rent concessions, also called “free rent”; and (b) cash contributions that are used for the construction of new offices. Most Landlords will manage the construction of a new office and deliver a move-in ready workspace.
4. Class B and C properties are competing primarily by offering large rent discounts.
5. Several well capitalized Landlords will deliver your office fully furnished. A portion of this cost may be amortized over the lease term.
