The industry has emerged as a darling of the commercial real estate industry, largely driven by the growth of e-commerce. The massive transformation of the industrial sector over the past decade reflects its growth and rise to the top of nearly all investors’ portfolio wish list. Our clients depend on EBI to deliver due diligence for assets in an industry that spans multiple functional uses, and strategies, including three subsectors: manufacturing properties; warehouse and self-storage properties; and wholesale, distribution, and logistics facilities.

The US’s overarching economic growth, combined with new technology, shifting consumer shopping preferences, and an insatiable appetite for quality assets in which to place capital, has driven the industrial sector to high levels of performance. That in turn has attracted investors, developers, and owners to pursue this type of property, and driven a quest for thorough due diligence on industrial assets.
