CompStak and Faropoint Unveil Report on Small-Bay Industrial Real Estate Trends Across Nine Markets

NEW YORK - Rezul -- CompStak, a leading provider of commercial real estate data, and Faropoint, a tech-enabled investment firm specializing in small-bay industrial properties, have released a joint report titled Beyond the Big Box: Spotlighting Small-Bay Industrial Trends. The report explores how small-bay industrial assets (buildings under 150,000 square feet) are performing compared to bulk warehouses in terms of rent, lease structure, and tenant mix.

Drawing on lease data from nine major U.S. markets—including Southern California, Chicago, the Bay Area, Atlanta, New Jersey, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Miami-Fort Lauderdale—the report sheds light on a segment that has historically lacked reliable benchmarks.

"Reliable data on small-bay performance has been hard to come by, making it difficult for investors and operators to act with confidence," said Michael Mandel, Co-Founder and CEO of CompStak. "This report gives the industry a clear lens into what's driving demand and how the segment is evolving."

Key findings include:

• Small-bay industrial rents averaged 22% higher than bulk in 2023, with premiums remaining in the double digits through 2024.
• Lease terms were 37% shorter for multi-tenant small-bay deals compared to bulk.
• Single-tenant small-bay leases commanded higher rents, especially in the 50,000–99,999 square foot range.
• Top-performing markets included Chicago, the Bay Area, and Miami-Fort Lauderdale. Atlanta showed notable strength in multi-tenant rent growth.

Small-bay properties typically offer lower ceiling heights, higher office-to-warehouse ratios, and infill locations closer to urban centers. This configuration supports a diverse range of tenants, including service contractors, manufacturers, and last-mile distributors.

"This asset class offers the flexibility and location advantages today's industrial users demand," said Adir Levitas, CEO of Faropoint. "For investors, small-bay industrial offers compelling yield and long-term value."

The report also highlights differences between single- and multi-tenant buildings. While single-tenant deals often secure higher rents, they come with operational trade-offs. Rent premiums vary by market, underscoring the need for localized analysis.

As the industrial sector normalizes, small-bay industrial remains a resilient, data-backed opportunity, especially in land-constrained metro areas.
