Seattle

Seattle Industrial Real Estate Market Overview

Puget Sound offers transportation access to Canada, Asia and other global markets, making the Port of Seattle a critical logistics node for companies that engage in export and import activities. Handling more than 2 Million containers (TEUs) per year through the port, Seattle also provides intermodal and national rail network opportunities. The city of Seattle's expansion to the south has generated increased demand for real estate, causing a shortage of quality, transportation-advantaged properties. Additional development and redevelopment will be required to meet the needs of companies that are active in the Seattle market.
