Warehouse & Industrial Space Costs

Warehouse leasing uses similar metrics to other commercial properties but adds unique considerations like clear height, dock doors, and power capacity.

Cost Structure

  • Warehouse base rent: $5-$15 per sq ft in most markets
  • Office portion: Typically 2-3x the warehouse rate
  • NNN charges: $2-$5 per sq ft for taxes, insurance, and CAM
  • Total all-in cost: $10-$22 per sq ft in most markets

    • Clear Height Premium

    Clear height (the usable vertical space) is critical for racking and storage:

  • 20 ft clear: Standard, no premium
  • 24-28 ft clear: Moderate premium, preferred by distribution
  • 32+ ft clear: Premium pricing, needed for high-density storage

    • Cost Per Cubic Foot

    For storage operations, cost per cubic foot is a better comparison metric than cost per square foot, since taller buildings offer more usable volume per dollar.

    Office-to-Warehouse Ratio

    Typical warehouse space has 5-15% office area. Heavy office ratios (20%+) increase the blended rate significantly.

    Ejemplo Resuelto

    20,000 sq ft warehouse at $8.50/sq ft, 2,000 sq ft office at $16/sq ft, $3.50/sq ft NNN, 24 ft clear height.

    1. Total square feet: 20,000 + 2,000 = 22,000
    2. Warehouse rent: 20,000 x $8.50 = $170,000
    3. Office rent: 2,000 x $16 = $32,000
    4. NNN charges: 22,000 x $3.50 = $77,000
    5. Total annual: $170,000 + $32,000 + $77,000 = $279,000
    6. Blended per sq ft: $279,000 / 22,000 = $12.68
    7. Cubic feet: 20,000 x 24 = 480,000
    8. Cost per cubic ft: $279,000 / 480,000 = $0.58
