Macro View 2012 and Our Solutions
The Macro View
Similar to 2011, this year starts with a favorable outlook. GDP is up, unemployment rates are down and the last quarter of 2011 saw improvement in leasing activity. Development has also returned in some selected areas under a new guise. Industrial developers are preparing sites and building pads with the goal of constructing the building once they secure a tenant. This modified build-to-suit will shave a year off the normal development cycle.
