2025 Market Reports

Vacancy rates continue to rise in most submarkets. After reaching a historical low of 2.0% in 2022, the overall rate has slowly but consistently risen, reaching 5.9% at mid-year.

Statistically, there was little change in the New Jersey office market during the first six months of the year, with vacancy and rents remaining relatively flat. Leasing activity, meanwhile, has largely been driven by a flight to quality.

Several factors, including technological advances and population shifts, are reshaping the healthcare real estate market.

The Meadowlands was only one of five submarkets in Northern New Jersey that posted positive absorption at mid-year. The vacancy rate in the Meadowlands eased a bit during the first half of the year, closing at 5.9%, down from 6.3% at the same time last year.
