High Philly Office Rents May Be Covering

What higher office rents in Philadelphia may be concealing

The asking office rents in Philadelphia have remained resilient and even increased in recent years. However, effective rents, which account for inflation and concessions, paint a more complex picture. As a result, asking rents are no longer as reliable an indicator of occupancy costs and office market performance as they once were.

From 2010 to 2019, annual asking office rents in Philadelphia grew by an average of 1.6%, closely tracking the national inflation rate of 1.7%. But in recent years, inflationary pressures combined with reduced office demand have driven effective rent growth into negative territory.

For example, in the third quarter of 2024, average office asking rents rose by 0.4%. However, after adjusting for inflation, the average effective rent declined by 3%. When factoring in concessions and other incentives, the decline becomes even steeper.

Philadelphia Office Values Drop 6%, With More Losses Possible

Philadelphia Office Values Drop 6%, With More Losses Possible

After a citywide revaluation, the assessed value of Philadelphia office buildings fell by nearly 6%. The City of Philadelphia expects this decline to deepen as property owners appeal their assessments. The 2025 property assessments, released this week, show a $635 million drop in taxable value, bringing total office valuations to about $10.73 billion, down from $11.37 billion in 2024. While the decrease is less than the $1 billion drop projected in Mayor Cherelle Parker’s earlier budget, city officials still anticipate reaching that figure due to expected losses from appeals.

Why Philadelphia’s Office Market Is Brightening

Why Philadelphia’s Office Market Is Brightening

To an outsider, Philadelphia’s office’s use of statistics might suggest it should be one of the hardest-hit cities, struggling with reduced foot traffic and empty buildings. However, the City of Brotherly Love is thriving, offering a model for other urban office markets facing high vacancy rates and quiet downtowns as they recover from the pandemic. On a recent 95-degree day in the central business district, men in loosened ties lined up at falafel, smoothie, and other food carts on Center City sidewalks. Employees on their lunch breaks filled Rittenhouse Square benches, enjoying the shade of the park’s towering trees. By rush hour, streets were packed with cars, buses, and bicyclists, all vying for space in the bustling traffic.
