Industrial Watch: September 14, 2019

“The shift of the industrial market to heavy warehousing and e-commerce has made data storage centers stronger than ever. There’s no argument that our society is technology driven, creating a need for large tech sites to manage the cloud computing, security, and other aspects of online commerce. The good news is these data storage centers can be used to diversify real estate portfolios-and usually come with credit worthy tenants, longer leases, and a high NOI. Even better? Due to added jobs and the high cost of development, numerous states have allowed for forms of tax exemption for qualified data centers.”
