CBD vs Suburban Office Assets
It is no secret that the comparative value between CBD and suburban-located office assets has drastically changed…
In less than two decades the increasing premium for CBD-located office space is kicking into reverse.
The trend kicked into high gear as a result of the pandemic as city centers were vacated.
When we look at the average price premium for CBD office assets over suburban assets, we see:​​
? In January 2018, suburban-located assets went for $211/SF in contrast to CBD-located properties at $374—a 77.3% premium.
​​? In Q3 2021, the average price premium for CBD office assets over suburban assets dropped dramatically to 48.0%.
As we move forward into 2022, the premium between CBD and suburban assets is predicted to continue to decrease.
