Commercial Property for Sale & Lease: the market
Why investors and tenants look at Central Massachusetts
Commercial property here trades at roughly $80 to $200 per square foot against $300 to $600 and up in Greater Boston, and cap rates run about 6.4% on multifamily and 7.6% on industrial, 7.5% on retail against Boston 4 to 6. $1.18 billion in investment sales traded across the market in the trailing year. That is the entire pitch, and it holds up because the underlying economy is diversified rather than dependent on one sector. Healthcare, education, biotechnology, and manufacturing all anchor real tenant demand, which is what makes the yield durable instead of merely high.
How the property types are behaving
Retail is the tightest at 3.3% vacancy, the lowest CoStar has recorded here, with almost nothing under construction. Industrial is 9.3% overall after a record supply wave, but that is big-box speculative space; small-bay buildings under 20,000 square feet sit at 3.9%, and rents run 30 to 50 percent below Boston. Multifamily posted $379.5 million in sales over the trailing year, down 23% from the $493 million year to July that ran 66% above the five-year average, at cap rates averaging 6.4%, with vacancy at 6.2% while a wave of new units leases up. Office is 9.4% vacant, softest at the top of the market, which makes it the best of the four if you are the tenant.
The submarkets we cover
Worcester is the centre of it, but the surrounding towns often price better for the same building. Auburn and Millbury pick up I-90 and Route 20. Spencer and Leicester offer lower entry prices with the same Route 9 access. Webster and Oxford sit on Route 395, Southbridge anchors the southern end, and Burrillville extends the coverage into northern Rhode Island. Each has its own tax rate, zoning bylaw, and permitting temperament, and those differences show up in what a deal actually costs.
If you do not see what you need
A meaningful share of what trades here never reaches a listing sheet. If nothing on this page fits, tell us the parameters and we will work the off-market side. If you own something and want to know what it is worth before deciding anything, a broker opinion of value costs you nothing and commits you to nothing.
