Though the retail market has remained relatively flat over the past year, gradual decreases in vacancy rates suggest a slight uptick in activity in the coming quarters. Asking rents remained stable, though the pipeline of new retail construction continues to slide as inventory levels remain flat. This may indicate the market is more focused on optimizing and revamping existing space rather than new construction.
