TAMPA BAY FLORIDA
OFFICE RESEARCH REPORT Tampa Bay Florida
Market Poised for Steady Advance
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Tampa Bay office market activity was steady during the first quarter of 2012. The market
continues to show signs of positive progress in its recovery as the economy improves. Tampa’s
unemployment rate continues to drop reporting in at 8.9% for the month ending in March.
The flight to quality is a dominant theme, as tenants seize the opportunity to lock in lower rates as
they relocate to Class A space. This trend is particularly prevalent in St. Petersburg’s Gateway
submarket, which posted the area’s lowest vacancy rate - 13%. Rates remain relatively flat overall
with concessions abating slightly during the first quarter. The Healthcare market remains strong,
as large medical practices move to facilities that have prime locations relative to the patient base
