JLL Reports Phoenix, AZ Industrial Market Ready for Rebound


Mark Hertzberg
PHOENIX, AZ – After a long summer lull, the Phoenix industrial market is ready for a rebound that will not only fill its large blocks of available space but also continue the momentum generated by small- and mid-size users alike, says JLL’s Q3 Phoenix Industrial Report.

According to JLL, the Valley absorbed 680,434 square feet of industrial space during the third quarter, bringing year-to-date absorption up to 5.6 million square feet.

“We’ve filled in a lot of our vacancies with users in the 40,000 to 80,000-square-foot range who are either relocating or expanding,” said JLL Managing Director Marc Hertzberg.

“These transactions don’t make the kind of splash that a big deal might, but collectively they’ve brought us out of one of the worst vacancy scenarios in the country and they’re teeing Phoenix up for a much more balanced recovery.

“ Our next benchmark needs to be the attraction of large corporate users who can take down Phoenix’s 200,000-, 300,000- and 500,000-square-foot blocks that are built and waiting.”
