Research
We Do Our Homework
Since 1985, NAI Carolantic Realty has continued to conduct the most comprehensive Triangle-wide commercial real estate survey. All aspects of the market are researched, and we present our findings to over 1,600 business leaders at our Annual Triangle Commercial Real Estate Conference held at the beginning of each year. Business professionals throughout the Triangle are provided with in-depth facts and figures on the current and future state of the market. Data is collected on office buildings, retail space, business parks, and industrial space. We track and publish data covering in excess of 285 million square feet of floor space from over 8,500+ buildings located throughout the Triangle. Existing space, vacancy rates, absorption, new construction, and planned construction are researched.
