Between apartments and single-family homes, it just has exploded. It seems like no one can get enough of building things around here. I would like to know what the absorption rate is on residential. Commercial seems even worse though. Look around at the available commercial condo space available for lease, it’s ridiculous and there seems to be no end to the construction of it. Go drive through the new Tallahassee Mall/Centre of Tallahassee. If that project is at or near 25% occupancy, then I would be shocked. Brick and mortar is becoming a dinosaur – ecommerce is here and killing physical locations (restaurants largely excluded), and it doesn’t seem as though that reality has set in. That’s the extent of my rant for the week.
