Scope
Office Market Study (General) – An office market study is a report that is generated in order to understand the market dynamics of a project or market. LOGAN offers office market studies to clients, and often works with developers or owners who want to understand how the project will perform in terms of rental rate, rental rate growth, absorption, and vacancy, among other factors. In order to analyze the property correctly, it is important to define the subject market or competitive set correctly. This is done by deeply understanding the physical characteristics and submarket dynamics.
LOGAN has an experienced team of market consultants who have experience producing market studies for some of the most important investors and developers in Latin America.
