Summary

  1. Toronto currently has one of the strongest office markets in North America, with availability at a record low of 1.9% and unemployment at an all time low. What economic factors are helping to drive this office boom and is it sustainable?
  2. According to a report by Cushman & Wakefield, rental rates for Class A office went up by 16.7% in 2018. Will such high rental rates force smaller companies to look outside of Toronto for rent relief?
  3. With almost 500,000 sf of office space coming online in 2019, you would think rents would dip but, almost all of the new office space is pre-leased. When will tenants finally see some rent relief?
  4. Many attribute Toronto’s office boom to the influx of tech companies. What amenities do these tech companies actually care about?
  5. What new office trends and designs are here to stay, and which will be forgotten about by next year?
