    Common Terms on Industrial Real Estate Leasing - Episode 15

    Thanks for following! This is Episode 15 of our Industrial Real Estate Podcast. We are discussing the most common terms used by Landlord and Tenants in the Leasing of warehouse space. You can read the entire article and see all terms in out blog: https://www.warehousesmarket.com/blog Leasing a warehouse space can sometimes be a complicated process and there are many terms tenants might not be familiar. Our blog outlines most of the common terms used by landlord and tenants. Here are the top 5 that are more important to remember:  Base Rent: Very common on NNN leases. This is the rent that goes to landlord and separate from operating expenses and property taxes. Common Area Maintenance (CAM): These are the expenses the landlord pays for maintenance on the building. Includes but not limited to Property Taxes, Property Insurance and exterior maintenance.   Gross Lease vs. NNN Lease: Most landlords are now moving towards NNN leases. The big difference is that a gross lease, the lease rate include all operating expenses, and the NNN lease separates the “Base Rent” vs. “CAM”. Build-out/Leasehold Improvements: These are improvements that Landlord plans to do for the space to the benefit of the tenant. Also might increase the value of the building. This includes Office buildout, warehouse lights, refrigeration equipment and others. Lease Concessions: This can also be seen as incentives from Landlord to help the tenant during the transition.  It can a simple month of free rent or cash to tenant to build out specific office or others. Featured Property: 1800 NW 89th PL. Industrial Tip: Have landlord deliver turnkey space, even if paying a bit more.   Featured Property: 1800 NW 89th PL: +/- 106,046SF building with refrigeration on Doral. For sale or Lease.   Industrial Tip: Consider having the landlord deliver the space in turn-key condition. Even if it’s a bit more expensive on rent. This will help with headaches of coordinating contractors and build-out. Plus, tenants can concentrate on their business.   Thanks for watching us. Hope this is helpful.

    COVID-19 Accelerating Demand for Cold Storage Warehouses

    Thanks for following! This is Episode 14 of our Industrial Real Estate Podcast. We are discussing the accelerating demand for cold storage facilities after the Covid-19 pandemic. You can read the entire article in our blog: https://www.warehousesmarket.com/blog   Cooler Warehouses are Hot!  Demand for cold storage has been increasing over the last few years and now this pandemic has accelerated this trend. Studies suggest that an additional 75 – 100 million SF of refrigerated space will be needed. Here are a five trends to look for in this sector: Exponential growth of E-commerce Grocery delivery Public Warehouse Consolidation. Existing Cold Storage companies merging. Fulfillment centers inside retail Big Box retail shops. Shift is restaurant from dine into delivery and pick up. No need for retail. Automation will make facilities more efficient. Specially in land supply constraint sites. Higher building with less need for personnel.   We are also seeing Investment Funds adding cold storage facilities to their portfolios. It’s an 180 degree turn from a few years ago when they showed no interest in these facilities. Our team recently completed the sale of two large (157,000SF and 80,000SF) cold storage facilities, fully leased, here in South Florida.   Featured Property: 12707 Le Jenue Rd 10,000 – 81,000SF. Refrigerated space Available for Lease at $13/SF.   Industrial Tip: If you own your refrigeration equipment and the landlord wants you to remove it after lease expiration, then you could find another company to take over your equipment and they can sign a new lease with your landlord. You can advertise the space for sublease with your broker and that way find a company to take over.   Thanks for watching us. Please subscribe and leave us your comments.
