Demand for industrial property, especially larger blocks of space, was strong. New speculative development, the bulk of which consisted of multi-tenant office warehouse space, was overbuilt and a significant amount of space remained vacant in small blocks.
Please note, lease rates for the Fargo Market are gross.

New industrial space development will continue to slow until existing inventory is absorbed and the national economy improves.

| Definitions |
| Please read carefully. The following definitions are given to insure uniformity of response. Use, not building design, determines reporting category. |
Central City/Suburban Areas -Since the definition of urban and suburban areas varies widely, it is the responsibility of the individual survey panelist to reflect his or her area's particular characteristics.
High Technology/R&D - Refers to highly improved space with 50 percent or more office potential and higher-than-normal parking.
Must have some industrial function to qualify; cannot be pure office.
Total Inventory -Total square footage of rentable industrial space (including R&D space), vacant and occupied, including owner occupied space, ready for tenant finish, in your market area.
Vacant Inventory -Total square footage of vacant rentable industrial space, including sublease.
|
Net Absorption - Net absorption is the net change in occupied space.
Construction - Ground must be broken. Do not include projects that are still in the planning stage.
Prime Industrial Building - Buildings in the top 25 percent of overall desirability of the existing inventory; such buildings are considered to be for general purpose uses such as industrial, research, warehouse and/or manufacturing.
Net Lease - A lease in which the tenant bears the responsibility for real estate taxes, insurance and operating expenses.
Gross Lease - A lease in which the tenant's rent includes real estate taxes and fire and extended coverage insurance, as well as maintenance of the roof structure and outside walls.
|
Improved Sites - Sites in the top 25 percent of overall desirability of the existing inventory. Such sites are in a "ready-to-build" condition and are essentially level and graded and serviced with all necessary utilities.
Unimproved Sites - Sites in the top 25 percent of overall desirability of the existing inventory and are zoned for industrial use. Streets and utilities may not yet be installed but are reasonably close and available.
Construction Costs - Should reflect only hard construction costs such as general contractor, overhead, and profit but exclude architectural and engineering fees, and financing.
