Some plots of industrial land in the U.S. now cost twice the amount they did a year ago.
This is especially true in major markets, including Atlanta and Houston.
Industry experts say the supply of warehouse space across the country still hasn't caught up with rampant demand.
Land fit for future fulfillment centers for the likes of Amazon and Walmart saw huge spikes in prices last year, according to real estate services firm CBRE.In a trend largely stemming from the growth of e-commerce players across the U.S., some plots of land now cost twice the amount they did a year ago, the group found. This is especially true in major markets, including Atlanta and Houston.
In surveying 10 U.S. markets, CBRE found the average price for "large industrial parcels" (50 to 100 acres) now sits at more than $100,000 per acre, up from about $50,000 a year ago.
Industrial land plots of five to 10 acres, which typically house infill distribution centers for completing "last-mile" deliveries, watched their prices soar to more than $250,000 per acre by the end of 2017, up from roughly $200,000 a year ago. Located in more bustling metropolitan settings, these warehouses must help retailers serve consumers closer to their homes.
To be sure, industry experts say that despite an uptick in construction of late, there's still a long way to go before supply aligns with demand.
"Escalating land prices are a big reason why new supply of U.S. warehouses and distribution centers hasn't kept pace with strong demand in recent years," David Egan, the global head of CBRE's Industrial & Logistics Research division, said in a statement.
"This situation won't go away any time soon, because the markets where distribution centers are most in demand — typically near or in densely populated city centers — have scant available land for industrial uses," Egan added.
According to annual industry research, the most active warehouse construction markets today include California's Inland Empire, northern New Jersey, Chicago and Las Vegas.
Average industrial land prices in Inland Empire mushroomed 35 percent in 2017, the group found. Prices in northern New Jersey and Las Vegas jumped 17 percent, while prices in Chicago were up about 16 percent.
Distinct development patterns have emerged to support e-commerce fulfillment, and are reflected in the increasing cost of land.In 2017, land prices rose sharply for development of warehouses both “first-mile” and “last-mile” due to strong demand and a diminishing supply of viable sites. In the 10 most active warehouse construction markets, rising land prices are contributing to higher rental rates, which remain a small component of total logistics costs.
