CBRE EA tracks the share of office markets where demand is either expanding or contracting.

In a recent chart, we noted that U.S. office net absorption turned positive for the first time in nearly two years. But how widespread is the positive demand?

The index below tracks the share of markets where demand is either expanding or contracting. A value higher than zero indicates that more markets are seeing positive absorption.

The index turned positive in Q2 2024 at 0.17. During Q2, 37 U.S. markets, or 58% of the total, recorded positive net absorption, up from just 23 markets a year ago.
