Supply and Office Demand
BXP, Inc. · 2026-08-06 · Importance 23 · Surprise 24
New office construction has effectively halted across most of BXP’s markets, which management expects to improve long-term supply-demand fundamentals and strengthen the competitiveness of institutional, well-amenitized assets. BXP continues to see pockets of strength where low availability is encouraging clients to select premier workplaces, although all markets still require consistent incremental absorption for a broader macro recovery. Life science leasing demand remains below historical levels, particularly among earlier-stage companies, and some markets continue to show a more measured leasing pace. Capital markets sentiment toward offices has improved, with greater private-market transaction activity and increased availability of debt and equity capital at more attractive pricing.
