Commercial real estate in Northern Colorado is perhaps stronger than it has ever been, with historic lows in vacancy and demographic trends that outpace the national averages. Because of this, the market is a prime location for new retail, and potential businesses must act quickly to secure leases. While the population growth has grown steadily and commercial growth has grown to match it, retail spaces are being gobbled up very quickly by large and small business alike.
Even though growth is skyrocketing, leasing costs are only steadily increasing in Fort Collins and across Northern Colorado. Manufacturing and technology companies account for much of the new growth in Fort Collins, but across Northern Colorado, retail availability may be opening up.
New developments in Loveland, Greeley, and Johnstown particularly, are opening up opportunities for businesses up and down the Front Range. Population growth and economic health remain strong as there is a constant influx of new people and businesses looking to invest in the future of the Front Range.
Northern Colorado is extremely strong economically, and that strength has definitely impacted the commercial real estate and retail market as well. New inventory rates are at 3.5% in Fort Collins - one of the highest in the entire nation. New retailers are entering the market with new retail developments such as the Foothills Mall in Fort Collins and the new Johnstown Plaza in Johnstown.
Six of the top ten fastest growing cities in Colorado are on the Front Range, and both commercial and residential development along the Front Range continues to soar since 2018. For businesses that are still looking for retail space, both Windsor and Loveland are seeking to undertake large-scale commercial development in the coming years to meet the increasing demands of a growing population.
