SUPPLY & DEMAND DYNAMICS
Demand continues to be driven by healthcare, professional services, financial institutions, and light industrial/flex users seeking proximity to the I-5 corridor and the large residential base of South King County and North Pierce County. The Federal Way market sits at the geographic intersection of these two large suburban populations, providing a natural draw for businesses serving both.
RENT GROWTH & LEASING ACTIVITY
Rental rates across Federal Way's office and flex inventory have grown consistently in the 3–4% range annually. Class B and flex product — the most likely competitive set for a new development on this site — has seen the strongest absorption, as tenants priced out of newer Class A space in Bellevue and Seattle seek quality alternatives with superior parking ratios and freeway visibility. The East Campus submarket, where this site is located, commands among the highest rents in Federal Way due to its institutional quality neighbors and highway-proximate location.
