CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) reports London Southern Fringe office leasing reached a nine-year high, with total leasing rising to almost 1,000,000 sq. ft. in the latest period. Activity was driven by a pre-let of nearly 500,000 sq. ft. at Battersea Power Station.
CoStar notes 2025 leasing totaled around 440,000 sq. ft., the largest single 2025 transaction was 29,000 sq. ft., and Q1 2026 showed a slowdown with one deal over 10,000 sq. ft. (19,670 sq. ft.).
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) reports Midlands big-box warehouse availability has begun to fall after a turn-of-the-year peak, driven by stronger occupier demand and a moderating construction pipeline.
Key figures: availability down by around 5m sq ft to ~30m sq ft; take-up ~6m sq ft in early 2026; pipeline at 9.3m sq ft, ~40% smaller than two years ago and half its 2022 peak; ~70% of under-construction space is pre-let.
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) reports U.S. retail asking rent growth moderated to +1.9% year‑over‑year in Q1 2026, the slowest pace in over a decade. Vacancy loosened slightly and tenant sales growth moderated, pressuring landlords' ability to push rents despite steady leasing activity and occupancy.
Regional notes: Sun Belt gains slowed; Midwest markets like Minneapolis led with 6.9% rent growth.
Homes.com (NASDAQ: CSGP) published a March roundup of the most expensive publicly marketed home sales across major U.S. metros, led by a $170 million to-be-built estate on Indian Creek Island in Miami.
Other top public sales included Los Angeles $47M, New York City $34.5M, and Phoenix $20M; Texas nondisclosure rules omitted a Houston $8.45M sale from the chart.
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) reports that Leeds leasing patterns shifted in 2025, with the City Core's share of headline leasing activity falling from ~80% (five‑year average) to 60% while the East Quarter’s Aire Park drove over 30% of CBD leasing.
CoStar noted mid‑sized lettings concentrated at Aire Park, a CBD vacancy near 12% (up from a 2020 low of 6%), and continued dominance of sub‑15,000 sq. ft. deals by the City Core (81% of such activity).
Homes.com (NASDAQ: CSGP) reported that the national median home price was $385,000 in March 2026, up 1.3% year-over-year, signaling restrained national growth and greater variation across large markets. Philadelphia and Baltimore showed ~4% and ~7% annual gains; parts of California and Texas saw modest year-over-year declines. The report frames March data as a gradual move toward balanced market conditions as spring buying begins.
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) reports a record gap in office construction volumes: London had over 16m sq. ft. under construction at end-2025 versus New York City's 5.7m sq. ft., a >10m sq. ft. differential—the largest in more than 20 years.
New York's pipeline has fallen sharply since its 2018 peak; London construction has hovered 16–17m sq. ft. since 2022. Preliminary Q1 2026 data suggest London construction may decline further through 2026–2027.
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) reported preliminary Q1 2026 U.S. office leasing data showing an estimated 120 million sq ft of new leases — the highest quarterly total since mid‑2018 and a 25% year‑over‑year increase.
CoStar said leasing momentum was driven by a record number of transactions rather than large single deals, with nearly half of the 20 largest U.S. markets recovering to within 10% of pre‑pandemic averages over the past 12 months.
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) was ranked No. 1 on the Washington Business Journal's list for highest representation of women on public company boards on April 9, 2026. The company highlights a purposefully refreshed board, with more than half of independent directors appointed in the last three years, and emphasizes diverse perspectives, integrity, and governance as drivers of long-term stockholder value.
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) reports U.S. retail construction activity pulled back in Q1 2026 with about 64.2 million square feet under construction, down from ~70 million a year earlier and well below the 10-year expansion average above 90 million square feet.
CoStar cites rising land, construction costs and interest rates, stronger competition for sites, and tenant caution as key drivers; Texas markets show higher pre-leasing while some non-South metros carry more unleased space.
