Key Takeaways

  • Construction pipeline has compressed sharply — speculative starts down ~40% from 2024 peak, signaling supply discipline through 2027.
  • Big-box (200k+ SF) requirements have returned in the I-94 / I-275 corridors after 18 months of quiet, driven by 3PL and EV-supply-chain users.
  • Ann Arbor / Saline remains the tightest submarket — sub-5% vacancy and the highest NNN rates in the region.
  • Sale-leaseback activity is up materially as owner-users look to unlock equity ahead of expected rate cuts.
  • Cap rates have stabilized in the 6.75%–7.50% range for stabilized Class A industrial.

What We're Watching

EV supply chain shake-out: several Tier-1 occupiers are reviewing footprint commitments as OEM production schedules slip. Expect sublease availability to tick up in Romulus and Brownstown in the next two quarters — could create opportunity for tenants with timing flexibility.
