GTA REALTORS® Release Commercial Market Statistics
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 03/03/17 -- Toronto Real Estate Board President Larry Cerqua announced that TREB Commercial Network Members reported a combined 271,918 square feet of industrial, commercial/retail and office space leased through TREB's MLS® System, on a per square foot net basis with pricing disclosed, in February 2017. This result was down by 25 per cent compared to 362,720 square feet of leased space reported in February 2016.
The year-over-year decline in leased space was driven entirely by the industrial segment, where the amount of space leased was down substantially compared to last year. The amount of commercial/retail and office space leased was up on a year-over-year basis.
Despite the annual decline in industrial space leased, the average lease rate was up over the same period by 13.5 per cent to $6.94 compared to $6.11 in February 2016. The average office lease rate was up by 12.1 per cent year-over-year to $17.03. The average commercial/retail lease rate was down compared to February 2016, largely due to a compositional shift in the size and location of deals this year compared to last year.
"The outlook for Canadian economic growth is positive. However, there does remain some concern surrounding the revival of exports, which obviously could impact some economic segments in the GTA and southern Ontario more broadly. The evolving economic trends over the next few months will be key in firms' decisions to take on more space," said Mr. Cerqua.
The total number of industrial, commercial/retail and office sales reported through TREB's MLS® System with pricing disclosed, at 57, was up slightly compared to 55 transactions reported in February 2016. Changes in average selling prices, on a per square foot basis, were up on an annual basis for the industrial and office market segments, and down for the commercial/retail market segment. Changes in average selling prices from one year to the next can be due to both changes in market conditions and changes in the type and location of properties sold.
