In 2017, Levy Realty Advisors closed a total of 350 leases, totaling 1,229,912 square feet.

Of the 350 total lease deals, 334 were for properties managed by Levy Realty Advisors. 126 of the transactions were secured with new tenants while 208 were renewals. In addition to the 334 leases at Levy-managed properties, 16 leases were secured at properties outside of Levy’s property management portfolio.

“2017 was a strong year for us,” commented Levy Realty Advisors’ Broker and President Alan Levy. “We saw a lot of leasing activity, rising rents, and consistently positive absorption rates. In the month of December alone, the occupancy levels of our industrial space increased by 15,871 square feet, and across our entire portfolio of approximately 2.8 million square feet, the average industrial vacancy rate is only 2.19%. In this tight market, tenants are paying the price. On renewals, rental rates increased by an average of 11.58% in December. We anticipate that 2018 will be another great year for owners of industrial real estate.”
