Sacramento Commercial Real Estate Market

Sacramento's CRE market is anchored by California state government, which occupies millions of square feet of office space in and around the Capitol Mall corridor, and by major healthcare systems including UC Davis Medical Center and Sutter Health. The Natomas submarket north of downtown has become a preferred location for corporate office campuses, while the Roseville-Rocklin corridor along I-80 is the primary suburban retail and office growth area. The downtown core has seen notable investment in mixed-use projects, particularly around the Golden 1 Center arena in the Downtown Commons (DOCO) district. The emergence of Sacramento as an affordable alternative to Bay Area markets has attracted tech companies and remote workers, pushing multifamily and office demand upward.

Key Economic Drivers

Market Insight
