Charlie Koenn is interviewed regarding Swisher Commercial’s 2021 YE Vacancy Report.
 
Jordyn Pair of Mlive outlines the vacancy data and market swings over the last couple years and discusses with Charlie Koenn the analysis of this data and where it leaves the Ann Arbor commercial real estate market looking forward at 2022.
 
“Leasing vacancies in Ann Arbor have nearly doubled in the past two years, according to a report from a local brokerage firm (Swisher Commercial).”
 
“Although the COVID-19 pandemic has had a large impact on vacancies in the past two years, part of the difference is driven by an all-time low of vacancies occurring in 2019, according to Charlie Koenn, associate broker with Swisher Commercial. ‘That was the lowest it’s been — in the time we’ve been tracking (29 years) — for a long time,’ Koenn said. ‘For it to stay that low would have been very rare.'”
