One thing this particular reporter asked me was if I had any resistance to new listings. That's a tough question to answer. My immediate thought was "yes, I am resistant to taking on new industrial listings." Upon reflection, however, it's genuinely true that good buildings priced right will still move. I suppose it depends on the circumstances. There no real "correct answer" with respect to pricing at the moment. Tough to say what the market will bear, especially if the market is pretty much AWOL. So that leaves everyone's pricing a wild guess at best - so few recent comparables are available that we have to extrapolate from various sources (i.e., whatever comps are available, rents, construction costs, etc) to arrive at something that makes sense. Even then, we can still be off. Without any response from potential buyers, it's still tough to judge. But the fact is good buildings will move if marketed correctly.
From The Bradenton Herald this morning.
Anthony Migliore, a Realtor for Coldwell Banker Commercial, closed on a deal involving a 56,000-square-foot facility in Palmetto last year, but says for the most part his listings have been tough to move.
Migliore also fears there’s plenty more inventory to be added.
He published a video on YouTube.com that examines industrial vacancies in Manatee County. The Realtor produced the video for his blog in an effort to be more creative in marketing the properties.
“If there is any positive sign, it’s that if you’re a business looking for industrial space it’s a good time to move,” Migliore said. “The biggest challenge on the sales end is there is still disconnect between sellers and buyers. Sellers, they want to maximize their return and try to get as much as they can in fairness.”
