The subject property is located within the relatively small Ascension submarket, containing 6.8 million square feet of industrial space. In the 12 months through Q3 2025, net absorption dipped further into negative territory at over -39,000 square feet as about 11,000 square feet were added to the local inventory.

The average market rent plateaued in Q3 at about $12.30 per square foot. With nearly 681,000 square feet of industrial space under construction in Ascension, the pipeline is at a record high, representing a 10.0 percent expansion to the inventory (CoStar).
