TAG Industrial Watch: May 29, 2021

“Many owner-occupied tenants hit hard by the pandemic are raising liquidity by selling their buildings and leasing them back from the new owner. Sale-leasebacks stalled out during the depths of the pandemic, but have come roaring back as economic activity picks up. According to SLB Capital Advisors, there was $3.1 billion worth of sale-leasebacks nationwide in Q4 2020, a better than 50% rise from the third quarter (Bisnow). Of course, the increase in lending activity is a key factor behind the rebound in sale-leasebacks. Just a couple of years ago, lenders were skeptical of industrial properties occupied by less recognizable tenants that lacked access to credit. But in an environment where industrial rents are growing at historical rates, any possible lost tenant is viewed simply as a value-add opportunity. An opportunity, that many tenants are taking advantage of.”  -Adam Abushagur
