Wisconsin Rapids’ limited office and retail inventory demonstrates the strength of choosing 2696 8th Street S for a new commercial development. Across the city, robust net absorption in both segments has driven limited vacancies of just 4% for retail properties and 3.2% for office buildings. Additionally, both property types have seen stable asking rent growth, with office asking rents up 2.2% year-over-year. This empowers an investor’s leasing efforts and lends strength for development by an owner/user seeking to avoid supply limitations in the local market.
