In areas close to New York City, major East Coast ports, and key trucking routes, prices are likely to keep rising. Else - where, pricing should stay in line with what we’ve seen over the past year. Sales activity for IOS has stayed active, with buyers still willing to pay a premium. There’s particularly strong demand for one- to four-acre properties with repair shops, but those are difficult to find. Industrial-zoned land contin - ues to draw interest, whether or not approvals are already in place. As always, value comes

down to location and what the property can be used for. De - velopment will continue, but at a more typical pace, and we don’t expect to see the same elevated pricing levels of the past few years. Office With decades of experience in the business, we know how difficult it is to predict where the office market is headed. Still, we’re taking a generally positive view of 2026. There’s a growing push to bring employ - ees back to the office after years of remote and hybrid work. At the same time, demand re-

mains solid for well-located of - fice buildings, especially among business owners looking to buy space for their own use. While change is constant, and while A.I. adds another variable, well-positioned, stable proper - ties should continue to perform. At Sheldon Gross Realty, we believe 2026 will present real opportunities, and we look forward to helping both current and new clients take advantage of them.

to look a lot like 2025, with a steady demand for warehouse space and Industrial Outside Storage (IOS). Industrial Given current conditions in the capital markets, buyers are being more selective, focusing on location, tenant quality, and lease terms. As a result, lease rates and sale prices should remain fairly steady in the near term. Supply remains tight, and there’s a clear gap between what sellers are asking and what buyers are willing to pay. Demand is especially strong for 5,000- to 30,000 s/f proper- ties, but inventory is limited, and there’s less sublease space available than there had been. With fewer aggressive buy - ers, we expect pricing for exist - ing warehouse properties to lev - el off. At the same time, tariffs and ongoing supply chain is- sues tied to global tensions are Sheldon Gross Realty secures two lease renewals in Monmouth Junction 3759 Rte. 1 MONMOUTH JUNCTION, NJ — Sheldon Gross Realty announced two lease renewals at a Monmouth Junction, NJ office building.
