Forecasts now expect national office vacancy to drop to around 9% by the end of 2027, and settle in the high-8% range by the end of 2028\u2014an improvement from previous predictions. This shift isn\u2019t driven by a sudden jump in demand; instead, it\u2019s the result of a much slower construction pipeline, with new office space deliveries forecast to fall to just 200,000 sq-ft. Absorption is expected to stay modest by historical standards, averaging 1 million sq-ft quarterly in 2027 and rising to 1.75 million sq-ft in 2028. Notably, higher-end office spaces are expected to lead the way, with rent growth near 4%, compared to about 2% for other offices.
