The Inland Empire industrial market experienced rising vacancy and negative net absorption in Q1 2026, with the overall vacancy rate increasing to 8.5% and year-to-date net absorption turning sharply negative at 3.4 million square feet, driven primarily by four large tenant move-outs exceeding 1 million square feet each. Regional employment growth remained modest at 0.9% year-over-year with declines in industrial-relevant sectors including construction, professional services, and manufacturing, while direct asking rents declined 6.2% quarter-over-quarter to $1.05 per square foot per month as elevated vacancy continued to pressure pricing across all submarkets.

This is a quarterly data report published by CBRE on March 31, 2026 presenting office sector figures for the Inland Empire region in California for the first quarter of 2026.

The report forecasts gradual market rebalancing through 2026 as development activity declines and available space is absorbed, with asking rents expected to stabilize and then slowly decline as vacant spaces are leased.

Tenant demand showed signs of stabilization as occupiers moved beyond a wait-and-see approach, with Irvine's return-to-office activity reaching a 70% recovery rate as of January 2026.

Cushman & Wakefield's Q1 2026 MarketBeat report examines the Inland Empire office market, which recorded an 8.9% overall vacancy rate, negative net absorption of 35,016 square feet year-to-date, and average asking rents of $2.25 per square foot on a full-service basis. Employment in the region grew modestly by 0.9% year-over-year to 1.7 million jobs, with job gains concentrated in healthcare and education while office-relevant sectors including professional and business services declined, and new leasing activity totaled 206,189 square feet across 107 transactions, down 43.6% year-over-year.

This Kidder Mathews report analyzes the Inland Empire multifamily market in fourth quarter 2025, presenting rental rates by unit size (studio to 3-bedroom ranging from $1,379 to $2,255 monthly), transaction data, and construction activity across the region. Key findings show vacancy increased 40 basis points year-over-year to 6.3%, average asking rents rose 1% to $1,937 per unit monthly, average sales price per unit declined 7.8% to $214,901, and cap rates increased 40 basis points to 5.9%, while construction deliveries for the year totaled 5,575 square feet, up 14% from 2024.

The Inland Empire office market in 4Q 2025 showed a vacancy rate of 5.0%, down 15.25% year-over-year, with average asking rents at $2.04 per square foot monthly and average sales prices of $149.74 per square foot. Significant transactions included The Grove Business Park selling for $12.3 million and Victoria Commons for $12 million, while approximately 197,774 square feet remained under construction with expected deliveries through April 2026.

In early 2026, Orange County's office market achieved a direct vacancy rate of 11.3%, representing a 3.8% year-over-year decrease below the national average, with 1.6 million square feet in leasing activity and 69,000 square feet of net absorption driven by strong tenant move-ins and constrained new supply. The market outlook remains cautiously optimistic, supported by 324,000 square feet under construction and 43,000 square feet recently delivered, with average asking rents at $2.86 per square foot on a full-service basis and demand expected to favor high-quality office space amid limited new construction and continued inventory reduction.
