Warehouses, Manufacturing, Outdoor Storage & Distribution

Warehouse and Distribution Space

From small-bay units to large distribution buildings, we track dock-high and grade-level space with the clear height, truck court, column spacing and freeway access your operation needs. Tucson's position on I-10 and I-19, between Phoenix, the Nogales port of entry and markets east, makes it a practical base for regional distribution and cross-border logistics.

Shallow-Bay and Small-Bay Industrial

Most of Tucson's industrial users need 1,000 to 10,000 square feet: contractors, trades, auto service, fabricators, e-commerce operators and suppliers. We lease more of this product than anyone in town and know which business parks have the roll-up doors, power and zoning for your use — often before a unit is advertised.

Manufacturing and Heavy Industrial Buildings

Machine shops, fabricators, food producers and aerospace and defense suppliers need heavy power, crane capacity, reinforced floors and the right industrial zoning. We help you find buildings that can handle the equipment, or evaluate what it will cost to make one work.

Flex and R&D Space

Office in front, warehouse or lab in back. Flex space suits technology, medical device, solar, service and light-assembly companies that need a professional front office and functional working space under one roof.

Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS) and Yard Space

Contractors, equipment dealers, trucking companies and fleet operators need secured, stabilized yard — sometimes with a small shop or office. IOS sites are scarce in Tucson and zoning matters, so we track available yards and properties with excess land closely.

Owner-User Buildings and Industrial Condos

For business owners who would rather own than rent, we find freestanding buildings and industrial condominiums — often financed with SBA loans — that build equity and lock in occupancy costs.

Industrial Land and Build-to-Suit

We help users and developers find and evaluate industrial-zoned land for new construction and build-to-suit projects, including zoning, utilities, access and site planning.

Tenant Representation for Industrial Users

An industrial lease locks in where your business operates for years. We work on your side of the table, and in most cases the landlord pays our fee.

  • Needs analysis: We size your space by inventory, equipment, loading, power, yard and growth plans so you get what the operation needs without paying for space you won't use.

  • Site selection: We match locations to your routes, workforce, customers and suppliers, with attention to freeway access, truck circulation and zoning for your use.

  • Off-market searches: We find space before it hits the listing sites through our landlord relationships and portfolio leasing work.

  • Building due diligence: Clear height, power (amps, voltage and phase), dock and grade doors, fire sprinklers, floor load, HVAC versus evaporative cooling, and use permits.

  • Lease negotiation: Rent, free rent, tenant improvement allowances, NNN charges and caps, escalations, roof and HVAC responsibility, yard use, signage, options to renew, expansion rights and guaranty terms.

Industrial Leasing for Landlords and Property Owners

Every vacant month costs you rent. We lease industrial space to tenants who pay, stay and fit your property.

  • Pricing and positioning: Rent and concession recommendations based on current Tucson industrial comps from our own deals and market data.

  • Marketing: Professional brochures, site plans and aerials, listings on CoStar, LoopNet and Crexi, signage and direct outreach to users and tenant reps.

  • Portfolio and multi-tenant leasing: Renewal tracking, unit turns and a steady leasing process for multi-building portfolios and business parks.

  • Tenant screening: Financials, credit, operating history, intended use and guaranty review.

  • Lease negotiation and renewals: Protecting your income, escalations and NNN recovery, and keeping good tenants in place.

Industrial Investment Sales in Tucson

We help investors buy and sell multi-tenant industrial parks, single-tenant net lease buildings, IOS sites, industrial condos and industrial land across Southern Arizona.

  • For buyers: Underwriting rent rolls, lease terms, tenant credit, rollover and below-market rents that create upside. We also work with 1031 exchange buyers on identification timelines.

  • For sellers: Broker opinions of value, offering memorandums, targeted outreach to local, regional and national industrial buyers, and management of due diligence through closing.

  • For owner-users: Businesses buying their own building or yard instead of paying rent, including SBA-financed purchases and sale-leasebacks.
