CBRE: New Jersey logistics space ranks nationally, globally in top-tier rent growth

Owners of high-end industrial space are riding a wave of rent growth — nationally and globally — and landlords in New Jersey are among the biggest winners. That’s according to new research from CBRE, which found that rents for top-tier space in the Garden State grew 9.5 percent, to $8.26 per square foot, in the year ending March 31. That year-over-year growth ranked third among U.S. submarkets, behind only Oakland and Seattle, and seventh worldwide.
