The market value of Class A and A+ logistics warehouses in São Paulo has increased by 67% between 2016 and 2025, according to an exclusive survey by SiiLA. The data, calculated using the Market Rent metric, highlights the appreciation of logistics rents in recent years.

Over nine years, the average effective rental price rose from R$ 15.17/m² to R$ 25.33/m², following the expansion of modern developments, the gradual reduction in vacancy rates, and the growth of sectors such as e-commerce, retail, and logistics operators. The average vacancy rate in São Paulo dropped from 30.56% to 10.06%, marking a new balance between supply and demand and demonstrating the market’s appetite for high-quality assets.

The appreciation observed by SiiLA is not limited to São Paulo. Nationwide, the average market value of logistics condominiums increased by approximately 55% since 2016, rising from R$ 15.67/m² to R$ 24.36/m² in 2025, while vacancy fell from 26.41% to 8.08%.

This appreciation reflects a set of structural factors. The growing demand for modern distribution centers, driven by e-commerce expansion, coincided with the delivery of A+ and A-standard assets that raised the market’s technical standards and value benchmarks. Additionally, the entry of institutional investors and real estate funds brought greater discipline and long-term vision, resulting in more professional management and consistent pricing. The result is a more liquid, transparent market with solid fundamentals for continued growth.

About Market Rent

Launched in Brazil by SiiLA, Market Rent is an international metric that measures the true market value of rental prices based on multiple data points, including transactions, asset specifications, and the historical behavior of each region.

Unlike the asking price — a volatile indicator that reflects landlords’ expectations and varies according to vacancy — Market Rent provides a stable and comparable reference, allowing investors, managers, and occupiers to assess price performance and make evidence-based decisions.

SiiLA provides market value data for all monitored properties on its platform, covering logistics warehouses and office buildings. The information is updated and accessible to all clients, offering a comprehensive view of performance, pricing, and opportunities across different regions of the country.

“Market Rent represents a fundamental step forward for the sector. It allows us to understand how the market truly behaves in a transparent way, helping with everything from asset pricing to portfolio management and investor decision-making,” says Giancarlo Nicastro, CEO of SiiLA.
